πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -h, --help β€” prints the help message. your little "bestie what do i do" button πŸ™ˆ
  • -d pathname, --db-path pathname β€” the SpatiaLite DB path. where the magic lands ✨
  • -x pathname, --dxf-path pathname β€” the input DXF path. where the magic comes from πŸ¦‹
  • -s num, --srid num β€” an explicit SRID value. if you know your SRID, say it with your chest πŸ‘‘
  • -p layer_prefix, --prefix layer_prefix β€” prefix for DB layer names. gives your layers a little matching surname πŸŽ€
  • -l layer_name, --layer layer_name β€” will import a single DXF layer. just the one. main character only πŸ’…
  • -all, --all-layers β€” will import all layers (default). the whole friend group comes along 🌈
  • -distinct, --distinct-layers β€” respecting individual DXF layers. everyone keeps their own identity, as they should ✨
  • -mixed, --mixed-layers β€” merging layers altogether by type. everybody in one big cozy pile 🫢
distinct|mixed are mutually exclusive; by default: distinct. pick one, bestie, you cannot do both 😭
  • -auto, --auto_2d_3d β€” 2D/3D based on input geometries. it just knows 🧚
  • -2d, --force_2d β€” unconditionally force 2D. flat. two-dimensional. lowkey minimal 🌸
  • -3d, --force_3d β€” unconditionally force 3D. depth, dimension, drama πŸ”₯
auto|2d|3d are mutually exclusive; by default: auto. only one, fr fr πŸ’€
  • -linked, --linked-rings β€” support linked polygon rings. they're holding hands πŸ’œ
  • -unlinked, --unlinked-rings β€” support unlinked polygon rings. independent, no strings, iconic πŸ¦‹
linked|unlinked are mutually exclusive; by default: none. and yeah, the default really is none β€” no cap πŸ‘‘
  • -a, --append β€” appends to already exixting tables. (that spelling is theirs, not mine, bestie πŸ™ˆ) stacking new stuff onto tables that already exist πŸ“
  • -m, --in-memory β€” using IN-MEMORY database. zoom zoom, nothing on disk, pure vibes ✨
  • -jo, --journal-off β€” unsafe (but faster) mode. ⚠️
okay but for real: this one is unsafe. it is faster, sure, but unsafe is unsafe. do not come crying to me if it goes wrong πŸ’€
