look at her. tiny. efficient. main character energy fr fr.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so spatialite_xml_print is intended to export a single XML file corresponding to the current DB-file content. one file. one XML. all the content. slay.

and like, when is that useful? bestie, it's useful i.e. when you've some way modified the original contents by performing some SQL operation. you did the SQL thing, you changed stuff, and now you wanna see it as XML — that's literally this. 🔥

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -h, --help — show help message. the classic. the icon. when in doubt, ask for help, she will provide.
• -d pathname, --db-path pathname — the SpatiaLite DB [INPUT] path. this is where she reads from, so point her at your actual database, not at vibes.
• -x pathname, --xml-path pathname — the XML file [OUTPUT] path. this is where the XML lands. your output. your destiny. 🎀
• -cs num, --cache-size num — DB cache size (how many pages). yes, pages. yes, a number. yes, it's -cs with two letters, don't @ me.
• -m, --in-memory — using IN-MEMORY database. everything lives in RAM, nothing touches disk, it's giving speed and chaos simultaneously. ✨

heads up queen: -d is your input and -x is your output. don't swap them or you'll be sad. 🙈

and that's the whole page, bestie. every option, every flag, every pathname, all of it, no cap. 💜
