QueryAddons Version 1.xx by Mikero


see readMeGeneral


see fixes



QueryAddons works on individual files, folder(s), or pbo's


QueryAddons works on mission.sqms and/or config.cpp/bin's


file types can be raPified or normal text.


The default use of QueryAddons is to provide a list of addon dependencies for that mission.sqm or config.cpp/bin


it inspects addons[]= and AddonsAuto[]= in mission.sqm. and RequiredAddons[]= in configs


Folder usage is similar. It's intent is to reflect an exploded, or, yet-to-be-made, pbo. Particularly useful for campaign inspection


The files are hunted recursively thru all sub folders (if any)


Pbo usage should be self explanatory, in that QueryAddons is looking inside, as if it were a folder tree.


useage


QueryAddons [-options] File/Folder/OrPbo


Name can be


config.cpp or


config.bin or


mission.sqm or


NameOf[.pbo] or


NameOfFolder


Options (Optional)


-n csv Output);


-a List Addons (default)


for configs only


-u Units


-w Weapons


-v RequiredVersion


-c ClassName(s) of the addon


config options are aggregated, you can, specify


QueryAddons -aucwv .....


Special considerations:


Pbos are NOT checked or looked for in folder tree mode. It would be illogical to list addons from more than one.


In the unlikely event that both a mission.sqm, AND, a config.cpp is encountered in a pbo or folder. BOTH will make up the list.


Comma Separated Output


csv output (if any) is intended to feed a database, either directly, or, via pipe > .csv


if csv is specified, the type of query (units,weapons eg) is not listed


Config options


are only relevant when config.cpp/bins are encountered. The results of specifying them for mission.sqm's is in-determinate.
