Getting Started

Install the Python package:

To export data, navigate to the file or directory:

cd <file or directory>

Then, run catminer:

catminer run -h

which yields the following:

usage: catminer run [-h] [-b [path]] [-i path] [-o path] [-f] [-t {xml,json}]
                    [-r]

Run catminer using these commands:

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -b [path], --bat-file [path]
                        generate a .bat file for easier automation
  -i path, --in_dir path
                        the run directory
  -o path, --out-dir path
                        set the output directory
  -f, --force-export    export previously exported files
  -t {xml,json}, --file-type {xml,json}
                        choose the output file type (default: xml)
