DESCRIPTION

       darktable is a digital photography workflow application for Linux, Mac OS X and several
       other Unices.  It's described further in darktable(1).

       darktable-cli is a command line variant to be used to export images given the raw file and
       the accompanying xmp file.

OPTIONS

The user needs to supply an input filename and an output filename. All other parameters
are optional.

<input file>
The name of the input file to export.

<xmp file>
The optional name of an XMP sidecar file containing the history stack data to be
applied during export. If this option is not given darktable will search for an XMP
file that belongs to the given input file.

<output file>
The name of the output file. darktable derives the export file format from the file
extension. You can also use all the variables available in darktable's export module
in the output filename.

--width <max width>
This optional parameter allows one to limit the width of the exported image to that
number of pixels.

--height <max height>
This optional parameter allows one to limit the height of the exported image to that
number of pixels.

--bpp <bpp>
An optional parameter to define the bit depth of the exported image; allowed values
depend on the file format. Currently this option is not yet functional. If you need
to define the bit depth you need to use the following workaround:

--core --conf plugins/imageio/format/<FORMAT>/bpp=<VALUE>

where FORMAT is the name of the selected output format, for example png.

--hq <0|1|true|false>
A flag that defines whether to use high quality resampling during export. Defaults to
true.

--upscale <0|1|true|false>
A flag that defines whether to allow upscaling during export. Defaults to false.

--style <style name>
Specify the name of a style to be applied during export. If a style is specified, the
path to the darktable configuration directory must also be specified (i.e. --core
--configdir ~/.config/darktable). Defaults to no style specified.

--style-overwrite
The specified style overwrites the history stack instead of being appended to it.

--apply-custom-presets
With this option you can decide if darktable loads its set of default parameters from
data.db and applies them. Otherwise the defaults that ship with darktable are used.

--verbose
Enables verbose output.

--core <darktable options>
All command line parameters following --core are passed to the darktable core and
handled as standard parameters. See darktable(1) for a detailed description of the
options.
