DESCRIPTION

9       usage: usdcat [-h] [-o file] [--usdFormat usda|usdc] [-l] [-f]
10
11              [--flattenLayerStack]  [--skipSourceFileComment]  [--mask  PRIM‐
12              PATH[,PRIMPATH...]]  [--layerMetadata]  inputFiles   [inputFiles
13              ...]
14
15       Write  usd  file(s)  either  as text to stdout or to a specified output
16       file.
17
18   positional arguments:
19              inputFiles
20
21   options:
22       -h, --help
23              show this help message and exit
24
25       -o file, --out file
26              Write a single input file to this output file instead of stdout.
27
28       --usdFormat usda|usdc
29              Use this underlying file format for output files with the exten‐
30              sion  'usd'.  For  example,  passing  '-o output.usd --usdFormat
31              usda' will  create  output.usd  as  a  text  file.  The  USD_DE‐
32              FAULT_FILE_FORMAT environment variable is another way to achieve
33              this.
34
35       -l, --loadOnly
36              Attempt to load the specified input files  and  report  'OK'  or
37              'ERR'  for  each one. After all files are processed, this script
38              will exit with a non-zero exit code if any files failed to load.
39
40       -f, --flatten
41              Compose stages with the input files as  root  layers  and  write
42              their flattened content.
43
44       --flattenLayerStack
45              Flatten the layer stack with the given root layer, and write out
46              the result. Unlike --flatten, this does not flatten  composition
47              arcs (such as references).
48
49       --skipSourceFileComment
50              If  --flatten  is specified, skip adding a comment regarding the
51              source of the flattened layer in the documentation field of  the
52              output layer.
53
54       --mask PRIMPATH[,PRIMPATH...]
55              Limit stage population to these prims, their descendants and an‐
56              cestors. To specify multiple paths, either use  commas  with  no
57              spaces or quote the argument and separate paths by commas and/or
58              spaces. Requires --flatten.
59
60       --layerMetadata
61              Load only layer metadata in the USD file. This option cannot  be
62              combined with either --flatten or --flattenStack
