NAME
kdb-convert - Convert configuration files using elektra
SYNOPSIS
kdb convert [<import-format>] [<export-format>] [<import-file>] [export-file]
DESCRIPTION
This command allows a user to convert a file from any format supported by Elektra to any
other supported format.
This command relies on the functionality of Elektra but does not actually modify the key
database in any way.
This command uses plugins to specify and convert between formats, it is only limited by
the plugins available for Elektra.
USAGE
Where import-format is the format that the current configuration file is using,
export-format is the format the user wishes to convert it to, import-file is the full path
to the current configration file, and export-file is where the converted configuration
file should be saved.
If either import-format or export-format is not specified, the dump format will be used
instead.
If either import-file or export-file are not specified, stdin and stdout are used
respectively.

EXAMPLES
To convert an Elektra dump file to xml:
cat sw.ecf | kdb convert dump xmltool > sw.xml
Another way to convert an Elektra dump file to xml:
kdb convert dump xmltool /home/user/dump_file.ecf /home/user/xml_file.xml
To print an xml file using the line format:
cat ../tests/xml_file.xml | kdb convert xmltool line
Note that this command won´t save the output, it will just diplay it to stdout.
