This tool "traduit" (french for translate) data formats. It was made in the hope to bring serde to the cli (serdi ^^). But that not exaclty what serde is about and I have no affiliation with them so I did not want to namesquat.

Installation

First install the rust toolchain and then execute the following command:

cargo install tradaf

Usage example

Prettify (or minify) some data format for ease of reading (resp: compact and have less data to save/transfert)

tradaf json json --pretty < simple.json

Litterally transcode between data formats

tradaf ron yaml < examples/standard.ron

Transcode into JSON so we can use jq, do some transformations and then transcode again into another format for viewing

tradaf RON json < examples/gameConfig.ron | jq .key_bindings | tradaf Json yaml
