💖 BARECTF 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about barectf — it's a User Commands situation and it is so much cooler than it sounds.

✨ NAME ✨

barectf — generate C99 code that can write native CTF packets 🌸

like. that's the whole job. it makes C99 code. the code writes CTF packets. natively. slay.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

barectf COMMAND COMMAND-ARGS

that's it. that's the shape of it. you give it a COMMAND, you give that command its COMMAND-ARGS, and off you go. 💅

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so the barectf command generates C99 code, and that code can itself write Common Trace Format <http://diamon.org/ctf> packets natively, out of a YAML configuration input file. yes. YAML goes in, native-CTF-writing C99 comes out. it's giving compiler-adjacent icon behavior, no cap. 🔥

the full documentation of barectf is available on the project's website <http://barectf.org>. go read it, i'm literally begging. 🫶

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -h, --help — Show this help and quit. the classic. the moment you're lost, this is your girl. 🎀
  • -V, --version — Show version and quit. just the numbers, no small talk. ⭐

👑 COMMANDS 👑

🌸 gen, generate

💜 show-configuration-version, show-config-version, show-cfg-version

Print the major version of a given configuration file. just the major version. that's it. that's the whole task. and honestly? respect. ✨
