- CSV (`text/csv`)
- XML (`text/xml`)
## Installation
| Package manager | Command |
| --------------- | ---------------------- |
| Cargo | `cargo install recast` |
The [releases page](https://github.com/Altair-Bueno/recast/releases) contains
pre-compiled releases and shell completion files
## Usage
```text
Transforms one serialization format into another
Usage: recast [OPTIONS] [FILE]
Arguments:
[FILE] Input from file
Options:
-f, --from Input format [default: json] [possible values: json, toml, yaml, query, csv, xml]
-t, --to Output format [default: json] [possible values: json, toml, yaml, query, csv, xml]

-h, --help Print help information (use `--help` for more detail)
-V, --version Print version information
```
## Examples
## [jq](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/)
Leverage jq's powerful filters on other serialization formats
```sh
$ recast -f toml Cargo.lock \
| jq '.package | map({name: .name, version: .version}) | sort_by(.name)' \
| recast -t csv \
| head -n 5
name,version
addr2line,0.19.0
adler,1.0.2
autocfg,1.1.0
backtrace,0.3.67
```
## Syntax highlighting
`recast` doesn't provide syntax highlighting, but you can leverage other cli
tools like [bat](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat) for this purpose
```sh
recast -f toml Cargo.toml | bat --language json
```
