# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex examinekey - prints information from a key
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex examinekey `[key ...]`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This plumbing-level command is given a key, and prints information
|
|
that can be determined purely by looking at the key.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* `--format=value`
|
|
|
|
Use custom output formatting.
|
|
|
|
The value is a format string, in which '${var}' is expanded to the
|
|
value of a variable. To right-justify a variable with whitespace,
|
|
use '${var;width}' ; to left-justify a variable, use '${var;-width}';
|
|
to escape unusual characters in a variable, use '${escaped_var}'
|
|
|
|
These variables are available for use in formats: key, backend,
|
|
bytesize, humansize, keyname, hashdirlower, hashdirmixed, mtime (for
|
|
the mtime field of a WORM key).
|
|
|
|
Also, '\\n' is a newline, '\\000' is a NULL, etc.
|
|
|
|
* `--json`
|
|
|
|
Enable JSON output. This is intended to be parsed by programs that use
|
|
git-annex. Each line of output is a JSON object.
|
|
|
|
* `--batch`
|
|
|
|
Enable batch mode, in which a line containing a key is read from stdin,
|
|
the information about it is output to stdout, and repeat.
|
|
|
|
# EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
The location a key's value is stored (in indirect mode)
|
|
can be looked up by running:
|
|
|
|
git annex examinekey $KEY --format='.git/annex/objects/${hashdirmixed}${key}/${key}'
|
