πŸ’– BMFCONV(1) β€” the bmfconv glow-up πŸ’–

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the manual page for bmfconv, and it's literally a database converter for bmf. no cap. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

bmfconv β€” database converter for bmf

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bmfconv [-f fmt] [-d db] [-e] [-i] [-v] [-h]

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

so here's the vibe: bmfconv converts bmf token databases between the supported formats. that's it, that's the job. πŸ’–

it can import flat text files into databases, and it can export databases back out into flat text files. both directions, she's versatile like that.

⚠️ PLEASE NOTE, and I need you to actually read this part: the text files used in import and export operations are read and written in the current directory. not somewhere cute and safe, not in some config folder β€” the current directory. so like, know where you are when you run this. periodt. πŸ™ˆ

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -f fmt β€” specify the database format. the supported formats are "db" for libdb and "mysql" for MySQL. pick your fighter. ✨
  • -d db β€” specify the database name. 🫢
  • -e β€” export the database to text files. πŸ“€
  • -i β€” import the database from text files. πŸ“₯
  • -v β€” display version information. πŸ‘‘
  • -h β€” display usage information. the classic help flag, we love her. πŸ’œ

⭐ RETURN VALUES ⭐

0 if the conversion succeeds, nonzero if the conversion fails. simple. iconic. binary queen. πŸ”₯

🧚 FILES 🧚

  • goodlist.txt β€” text file for import or export of good tokens. ✨
  • spamlist.txt β€” text file for import or export of spam tokens. πŸ’€

😭 BUGS 😭

Should be more robust.

(that's the whole bug section. she said it herself. lowkey relatable but also bestie please. πŸ™ˆ)
