.TH YANGRE 1 "2018-11-09" "libyang"
.SH NAME
yangre \- YANG regular expression processor
.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B yangre
[\-V] \-p \fIREGEXP\fP [\-i] [\-p \fIREGEXP\fP [\-i]...] \fISTRING\fP
.br
.B yangre
[\-V] \-f \fIFILE\fP
.
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fByangre\fP is a command-line tool to test and evaluate regular expressions
for use in YANG schemas. Supported regular expressions are defined by the
W3C's XML-Schema standard.
\fByangre\fP can be used either with regular expressions and a target string
on the command line or with input from a file. The latter is particularly
useful to avoid dealing with proper shell escaping of regular expression
patterns, which can be somewhat tricky.
.
.SH GENERAL OPTIONS
.TP
.BR "\-h\fR,\fP \-\^\-help"
.br
Outputs usage help and exits.
.TP
.BR "\-v\fR,\fP \-\^\-version"
.br
Outputs the version number and exits.
.TP
.BR "\-V\fR,\fP \-\^\-verbose"
Increases the verbosity level. If not specified, only errors are printed, with
each appearance it adds: warnings, verbose messages, debug messages (if compiled
with debug information).
.SH COMMAND LINE INPUT
.TP
.BR "\-p \fIREGEXP\fP\fR,\fP \-\^\-pattern=\fIREGEXP\fP"
.br
One or more regular expression patterns to be tested against the input
string. Supplied expressions are tested in the order they appear on the
command line. Testing is aborted when an expression does not match (or
does match, if the \fB-i\fP option is used.)
.TP
.BR "\-i\fR,\fP \-\^\-invert-match"
.br
Reverse match condition for the previous pattern. If the pattern matches,
an error is printed and evaluation is aborted.
.TP
.BR "\fISTRING\fP"
.br
Target text input to match the regular expression(s) against. The same
text is used for all regular expressions. Note that only the first
argument is used by \fByangre\fP, if it contains spaces or other shell
metacharacters they must be properly escaped. Additional arguments are
silently ignored.
.SH FILE INPUT
.TP
.BR "\-f \fIFILE\fP\fR,\fP \-\^\-file=\fIFILE\fP"
Read both patterns and target text from the specified input file.
\fIFILE\fP must consist of one or more YANG regular expressions, each on
their own line, followed by a blank line and one line of target text. No
preprocessing is done on file input, there are no comment lines and
whitespace is not stripped. A single space character at the beginning of
a pattern line inverts the match condition for the pattern on that line.
Patterns must still be properly quoted as mandated by the YANG standard.
.SH RETURN VALUES
.TP
0
.I Successful match
.br
The target text matched for all patterns.
.TP
1
.I Pattern mismatch
.br
One or more patterns did not match the target text. An error message is
printed to stderr describing which pattern was the first not to match.
.TP
255
.I Other error
.br
One or more patterns could not be processed or some other error occurred that
precluded processing.
.SH EXAMPLES
.IP \[bu] 2
Test a single pattern:
yangre -p 'te.*xt' text_text
.IP \[bu]
Test multiple patterns:
yangre -p '.*pat1' -p 'pat2.*' -p 'notpat' -i pat2testpat1
.IP \[bu]
Input from a file:
cat > /tmp/patterns <<EOF
.*pat1
pat2.*
notpat
pat2testpat1
EOF
yangre -f /tmp/patterns
