camitk-extensiongenerator is a developer tool for CamiTK, aka the Computer Assisted Medical Intervention Tool Kit. no cap, that's the actual name 💀

here's the vibe: camitk-extensiongenerator creates CamiTK Extension source code from a description given in a .camitk (JSON) file ✨

using this command line only, you can generate source code for extensions corresponding to the content of the given camitk file. just the CLI, just you, just vibes 🌸

and now the part that actually matters 👇

to successfully run camitk-extensiongenerator you need to provide two arguments: the CamiTK .camitk document, and a directory where the C++ classes and CMake configuration files will be written. two things. both of them. don't skip one 😭

the targeted users are developers in R&D departments or laboratories 🧚 (hi, that's you, main character energy)

---

🌟 OPTIONS 🌟

• --help, -h — print usage information and exit. the classic. your bestie when you're lost 🙈
• --version, -v — print CamiTK version message and exit. it's giving "who am I, what year is it" 🎀
• --file, -f file — input .camitk document describing the extension to generate (required) 🔥

this should be a valid .camitk JSON document. the input .camitk file is mandatory. like, actually mandatory. not optional. mandatory mandatory 💅

• --directory, -d path — generated source output directory (required) 📁

this is the path to the directory where the source code will be generated. the output path is mandatory too. both of the required ones are required, shocking, I know 💖
