DESCRIPTION

tablix2_output reads a timetable description in a XML format produced by  Tablix  from  file  and

OPTIONS

-o FILE

 Write output to file FILE instead of the standard output.

-s OPTIONS

 Set export module options.  OPTIONS is a comma separated  string  of  option=value  pairs.  Some
 options  can only be enabled and do not accept a value. You can ommit the =value part with those
 (specifying the option alone will enable it). Supported options  depend  on  the  export  format
 used.

-d LEVEL

 Set the verbosity level, where LEVEL is one of the following:

          0    (only fatal error messages are shown),

          1    (fatal and non-fatal errors),

          2    (all errors),

          3    (all of the above plus some informational messages) or

          4    (all of the above plus debug messages).

-r FILE

 Use  timetable  information  from  a  saved  Tablix  session  in FILE (usually named save?.txt).
 Timetable with the lowest fitness value in the saved  population  is  exported  instead  of  any
 result  stored  in the XML file. If this option is used, the XML file does not need to contain a
 solution (i.e. the problem description file can be used).

-h

 Shows a brief help message.

-v

 Shows compile time options and copyright information.

-i PATH

 Sets the path to export modules. By default the module path is set to the location where  export
 modules were installed by make install command.

FORMATS

htmlcss

 XHTML  1.1  output  using  CSS stylesheets and UTF-8 encoding for school scheduling. Creates one
 giant HTML file with all timetables (not recommended for large timetabling problems).

 Use the css option to specify an alternative  stylesheet  (if  no  stylesheet  is  specified,  a
 default stylesheet is used).

 Use the namedays option (without a value) to enable day names.

htmlcss2

 XHTML  1.1  output  using  CSS  stylesheets  and UTF-8 encoding for school scheduling. Creates a
 directory containing one HTML file per timetable. Also supports timetables  that  span  multiple
 weeks.  With  this  module  you  have to specify the name of the directory where files are to be
 saved (you can not use standard output).

 Use the css option to specify an alternative  stylesheet  (if  no  stylesheet  is  specified,  a
 default stylesheet is used).

 Use the namedays option (without a value) to enable day names.

 The  footnotes  option  (without  a value) changes the way events from conflicting resources are
 displayed. Without this option time slots occupied by events from conflicting resources are only
 marked. With this option some more information is displayed in the timetable (this is similar to
 timetables produced by the htmlcss module).

 With the weeksize option you can specify the number of days in a  week.  This  can  be  used  to
 produce  timetables  that  span  multiple  weeks. For example: If the timetable has 15 days (the
 width of the "time" matrix and weeksize is set to 5, timetable will be displayed as  3  separate
 weeks. Default week size is 5 days.

csv

 General  "comma  separated values" format in UTF-8 encoding suitable for import into spreadsheet
 programs and further processing.

vcal

 vCalendar 2.0 (also known as iCal or iCalendar) compatible output. Use this format to generate a
 list  of  events  for  one  class  or  one teacher that is suitable for import into cell phones,
 calendaring applications, etc.

 You have to specify all of the following options for this export module to work correctly:

          starttime
               Time and date of the first time slot in the timetable (a suitable  time  and  date
               would  for  example  be Monday, 4 September 2006, at 8:00 AM) written in basic ISO
               8601 format (previous example in this format would be "20060904T080000").

          length
               Length of each event in the timetable in minutes (for example "40")

          restype
               Type of resource for which to export the timetable. Use "teacher" for teachers and
               "class" for student classes.

          resource
               Name of the resource for which to export the timetable.

gnutu

 XML format suitable for import into Gnutu Student's Schedule (see http://gnutu.org).

 This module can create a timetable for a single class of students or a directory with timetables
 for all defined classes. In the first case, specify the name of the class with the class option.
 If  you  do  not  specify this option all timetables will be generated. In this case you have to
 specify a name for the directory into which the timetables will be saved (use the -o option).

 By default the first timeslot begins at 8:00, the second at 9:00 and so on. If you would like to
 change that, make a file with one time slot time per line. Then specify this file with the hours
 option.
