Spectre cplaninfo Options
The Spectre command line cplaninfo sub-command displays the expected output of the cPlan. It has the following syntax:
spectre cplaninfo <filename> [options]
The <filename> points to an existing cPlan file. The <filename> can take various forms:
- If you set DI_PROJECT or pass --project as an argument, you can use a project path such as /cplans/sales.cplan. This format always uses forward slashes regardless of the operating system.
- If you do not set DI_PROJECT and do not pass --project as an argument, you can use a file system path. For example, use C:\di\project\sales\cplans\sales.cplan, or use sales.cplan if the current working directory is C:\di\project\sales\cplans.
For example:
spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan
Enter spectre cplaninfo -h to display the syntax and options as shown in the following table.
Spectre cplaninfo Sub-command Options
Option | Description |
---|---|
--dataroot arg |
Set the path to the DiveLine server dataroot. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --dataroot c:\di\solution\dl-dataroot Instead of using this option, you can set the DI_HOME environment variable. See Setting Environment Variables. |
--project arg |
Set the project name. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --project sales Instead of using this option, you can set the DI_PROJECT environment variable. See Setting Environment Variables. |
-p [ --param ] name value |
Set a parameter. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --param month 12 --param year 2015 |
--timing | Print timing information. |
--properties |
Print property values. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --properties |
-q [ --quiet ] |
Do not print program information. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --properties --quiet |
--human-readable |
Align columns in table output. This option is the default unless writing to a file. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --human-readable --metadata > sales-cplaninfo.txt NOTE: This option is intended for looking at small result sets—it is costly because of the layout required. |
Other modes (supply at most one): | |
-c [ --calcs ] |
List the calculations provided by the cPlan. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --calcs Returns a list of existing calcs. |
-m [ --metadata ] |
Print the metadata table for the cPlan. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --metadata Returns the metadata for the cPlan. |
-f [ --files ] |
List files necessary to execute this cPlan. For example: spectre cplaninfo /cplans/sales.cplan --files Returns a list of required files. |
The following command assumes that the environment variable PATH includes the location of the Spectre executable file.
spectre cplaninfo --dataroot C:\di\solution\dl-dataroot
--project PRs /cplans/qa-verify-bugzilla.cplan
This command returns the following information about the qa-verify-bugzilla.cplan: referenced files, diveable fields and their types, calc sets, and calcs.
