SRT-PROCESS(1)

✨ NAME ✨

srt-process — the SRT subtitle processing tool 🎀

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay bestie so first things first, here's the whole invocation vibe:

usage: srt process [-h] [--input FILE] [--output FILE] [--inplace]
       [--no-strict] [--debug] [--ignore-parsing-errors] [--encoding
       ENCODING] -f FUNC [-m MODULE]

Process subtitle text content using arbitrary Python code. yes literally, you get to run your own Python on it. main character energy fr fr 🦋

🌸 options:

• -h, --help — show this help message and exit. the classic, the icon, the one you always run first 💖
• --input FILE, -i FILE — the file to process (default: stdin). give it a file or it just reads whatever you pipe in, no thoughts head empty 🌈
• --output FILE, -o FILE — the file to write to (default: stdout) ✨
• --inplace, -p — modify file in place. it edits the file right there, no copy left behind, be brave 💅
• --no-strict — allow blank lines in output. your media player may explode 💀 like that's the actual warning, don't say nobody told you
• --debug — enable debug logging. turn it on when you want to see everything 👀
• --ignore-parsing-errors, -c — try to keep going, even if there are parsing errors. it's giving resilience 🫶
• --encoding ENCODING, -e ENCODING — the encoding to read/write files in (default: utf8) 🍓
• -f FUNC, --func FUNC — a function to use to process lines. this one is required btw, no func no party 🎀
• -m MODULE, --module MODULE — modules to import in the function context. so your func actually has stuff to work with 📦

🧚 examples:

Strip HTML-like symbols from a subtitle 😭

$ srt process -m re -f 'lambda sub: re.sub("<[^<]+?>", "", sub)'

look at that lambda go, ate and left no crumbs 👑
