💅 diagram-viewer(n)

okay so bestie, welcome to the diagram-viewer(n) page — yes that's the manual name, we're not copying the whole header line, it's giving ✨metadata✨ — this is the whole vibe, let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

diagram-viewer — a Lightweight Diagram Processor 🌸

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

diagram-viewer show inputfile...

diagram-viewer convert -o output format inputfile...

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

So the app this doc is literally describing, diagram-viewer, is a lightweight processor for tklib diagram files 💖

It's built on top of the package diagram. Go look at that one for the examples and the language reference, iykyk 👑

🌈 USE CASES 🌈

diagram-viewer was written with two (2) use cases in mind, and honestly? iconic of it:

1. Processing and display of one or more diagram files.
2. Batch conversion of one or more diagram files into raster image files.

💜 COMMAND LINE 💜

• diagram-viewer show inputfile... — this is the form for use case [1]. The app opens a gui showing the list of input files on the left, so you can pick which one gets rendered to the canvas on the right. main character energy, choose your fave 💅
• diagram-viewer convert -o output format inputfile... — this is the form for use case [2]. The app converts the input files into a raster image of the specified format. batch mode slay 🔥
  • path output (in) — this argument specifies where to write the generated image. It can be the path to a file or directory.

If the output does not exist then [file dirname $output] has to exist and must be a writable directory. no cap, check that before you come crying to me 😭

In case of multiple input files the generated image will be written to a file in the directory, and the name of that file will be derived from the inputfile, and format.

In case of a single input file the generated image will be written to the file.

• (handle) format (in) — this argument specifies the image format to convert the diagrams into when processing the input. The application recognizes all formats supported by the Img package, i.e. for which it can load a package img::format ✨ so like, whatever Img can do, we can do.
• path inputfile (in) — this argument specifies the path to the diagram file to process. It has to exist, must be readable, and written in diagram format. all three, bestie, it's not a vibe check it's a requirement 🙈
