# History

This is the result of an initial GSoC contribution by @[ah450](https://github.com/ah450)
(or https://github.com/a-h-i) and is maintained by a community of SPDX adopters and enthusiasts.


# License

[Apache-2.0](LICENSE)


# Features

* API to create and manipulate SPDX v2.3 documents.
* Parse, convert, create and validate Tag/Value, RDF, JSON, YAML, XML format SPDX files

### Known Limitations

* No full 2.3 support for RDF format [#295](https://github.com/spdx/tools-python/issues/295)
* No full license expression support [#10](https://github.com/spdx/tools-python/issues/10)
* Output of the CLI parser is incomplete [#268](https://github.com/spdx/tools-python/issues/268)

# TODOs

* Include specialized validation for SPDX v2.2.1(ISO 5962:2021)


# How to use

## Command-line usage:

1. **PARSER** (for parsing any format):
* Use `pyspdxtools_parser --file <filename>` where `<filename>` is the location of the file.              
If you are using a source distribution, try running: `pyspdxtools_parser --file tests/data/formats/SPDXRdfExample.rdf`.

* Or you can use `pyspdxtools_parser` only, and it will automatically prompt/ask for `filename`.

* For help use `pyspdxtools_parser --help`


2. **CONVERTOR** (for converting one format to another):
* If I/O formats are known:

    * Use `pyspdxtools_convertor --infile/-i <input_file> --outfile/-o <output_file>` where `<input_file>` is the location of the file to be converted
    and `<output_file>` is the location of the output file.  
    If you are using a source distribution, try running : `pyspdxtools_convertor --infile tests/data/formats/SPDXRdfExample.rdf --outfile output.json` 

* If I/O formats are not known:

    * Use `pyspdxtools_convertor --from/-f <input_format> <input_file> --to/-t <output_format> <output_file>` where `<input_format>` is the manually entered format of the input file
    and `<out_format>` is the manually entered format of the output file. 
    If you are using a source distribution, try running : `pyspdxtools_convertor --from tag tests/data/formats/SPDXTagExample.in --to yaml output.out` 

* If one of the formats is known and the other is not, you can use a mixture of the above two points.  
Example (if you are using a source distribution): `pyspdxtools_convertor -f rdf tests/data/formats/SPDXRdfExample.xyz -o output.xml`

* For help use `pyspdxtools_convertor --help`


# Installation

As always you should work in a virtualenv (venv). You can install a local clone
of this repo with `yourenv/bin/pip install .` or install it from PyPI with
`yourenv/bin/pip install spdx-tools`. Note that on Windows it would be `Scripts`
instead of `bin`.


# Dependencies

* PLY: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ply/ used for parsing.
* rdflib: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/rdflib/ for handling RDF.
* PyYAML: https://pypi.org/project/PyYAML/ for handling YAML.
* xmltodict: https://pypi.org/project/xmltodict/ for handling XML.
* click: https://pypi.org/project/click/ for creating the CLI interface.
