#592: simfactory --mdbkey syntax is horrible ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: rhaas | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Other | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
Comment (by hinder):
There is no such documentation at the moment. There is a file called simfactory/etc/syntax/mdb-syntax.ini which contains the information which is output with --help for the MDB entries. I think this is the place that these things should be documented, at least minimally. The command line options are documented in simfactory/etc/options, but this is a little confused at the moment and should be tidied up. The SimFactory user guide aims to parse these files and extract the documentation. This has been done for the command-line options but not for the MDB entries yet.
