msyt

A human readable and editable format for msbt files.

msyt is a YAML format specification for msbt files, allowing easy plaintext reading and writing. This repo houses a binary used to interface with msyt files.

---

msyt is unique amongst its msbt-editing peers in that it does not require any msbt files after the initial export. Once an msyt file is created, it can be used to create an msbt file.

Usage

Exporting

Use the export subcommand to create msyt files from msbt files.

Examples

See complete usage: msyt export --help

Output msyt files next to their msbt counterparts:
msyt export path/to/file.msbt a/different/file.msbt

Output all msyt files next to their msbt counterparts recursively in a directory:
msyt export -d path/to/dir/containing/msbt/files

Output msyt files generated from files in some/dir into another/dir:
msyt export -o another/dir -d some/dir

Creating

Use the create subcommand to create msbt files from msyt files.

Examples

See complete usage:
msyt create --help

Create msbt files next to msyt files:
msyt create path/to/file.msyt a/different/file.msyt

Create msbt files next to all msyt files recursively in a directory:
msyt create -d path/to/dir/containing/msyt/files

Create msbt files in some/dir from files in another/dir:
msyt create -o another/dir -d some/dir

Importing

Use the import subcommand to import a msyt into an existing msbt.

Note that this will keep the section order and label order. This will not add new labels and will not update attributes.

Examples

See complete usage:
msyt import --help

Import msyt files into the msbt files adjacent to them:
msyt import path/to/file.msyt another/path/to/file.msyt

Import msyt files adjacent to msbt files recursively in a directory:
msyt import -d some/dir

Import msyt files adjacent to msbt files recursively in a directory, outputting the result in another/dir:
msyt import -o another/dir -d some/dir
