convertgls2bib [option]+ texfile
bibfile
Converts a .tex file containing glossary definitions using
commands like "\newglossaryentry" and
"\newacronym" to a .bib file in the
format required for bib2gls. Distributed with bib2gls.
- --help or
-h
- Display help message and exit.
- --version or
-v
- Display version information and exit.
- --silent or
--quiet or -q
- Suppress all messages except for errors.
- --verbose
- Switch on verbose mode.
- --no-verbose
- Switch off verbose mode.
- --debug
[n]
- Display debugging messages.
- --debug-mode
setting
- May be used instead of --debug where the level number is difficult
to remember. Value same as for bib2gls's --debug-mode
option.
- --no-debug
- Switch off debugging mode. Equivalent to --debug 0.
- --log-file
filename
- Log messages to given file. Intended primarily for debugging messages so
enabling debug mode will automatically create a transcript file, but
otherwise a file won't be created unless this option is used.
- --texenc
name
- Set the character encoding to name for the input .tex
files.
- --bibenc
name
- Set the character encoding to name for the output .bib
files.
- --locale lang
tag
- Use the language resource files associated with the given language tag
lang tag. If there isn't an appropriate file, the en
(English) file will be used.
- --preamble-only
or -p
- Only parse the document preamble. That is, stop parsing if
"\begin{document}" encountered.
- --no-preamble-only
- Parse the entire document (default).
- --ignore-fields
list or -f list
- Ignore all the fields in the comma-separated list. If the list
includes sort, type or category it will automatically
implement the corresponding --ignore-sort, --ignore-type or
--ignore-category option. Each item in the list should identify the
field by its original case-sensitive key.
This option is cumulative.
- --no-ignore-fields
- Cancels the effect of --ignore-fields.
- --ignore-category
- Omit the category field. Default if
--split-on-category.
- --no-ignore-category
- Don't omit the category field. Default unless
--split-on-category.
- --ignore-type
- Omit the type field. Default if --split-on-type.
- --no-ignore-type
- Don't omit the type field. Default unless
--split-on-type.
- --ignore-sort
- Ignore the sort field (default).
- --no-ignore-sort
- Don't ignore the sort field.
- --overwrite
- Overwrite existing .bib files. Default unless --split-on-type
used.
- --no-overwrite
- Don't overwrite existing .bib files. Default if --split-on-type
used.
- --split-on-type or
-t
- Split the entries into separate files according to the type field.
This option automatically implements --ignore-type and
--no-overwrite.
- --no-split-on-type
- Don't split the entries into separate files according to the type
field (default).
- --split-on-category
or -c
- Split the entries into separate files according to the category
field. This option automatically implements --ignore-category and
--no-overwrite.
- --no-split-on-category
- Don't split the entries into separate files according to the
category field (default).
- --absorb-see
- Absorb "\glssee" and
"\glsxtrindexseealso" into the data
(default).
- --no-absorb-see
- Don't absorb "\glssee" and
"\glsxtrindexseealso" into the
data.
- --index-conversion or
-i
- Any entries that would normally be converted to
@entry that don't have a description or just have
the description set to "\nopostdesc" or
"\glsxtrnopostpunc" will be converted to
@index and the description field will be
omitted.
- --no-index-conversion
- Don't use @index instead of
@entry if the description is empty or just
"\nopostdesc" or
"\glsxtrnopostpunc" (default).
- --space-sub
value or -s value
- Substitute spaces in labels with value.
- --field-map
mappings or -m mappings
- Add source key to destination field label mapping. The argument should be
a comma-separated list of src-field=dest-field pairs. This
option is cumulative.
The deprecated --key-map is a synonym of
--field-map.
- --no-field-map
- Cancels all mappings applied with --field-map. The deprecated
--no-key-map is a synonym of --field-map.
- --internal-field-map
mappings
- Adds the given mappings to the default set of internal field to key
mappings. (For example, desc is the internal field label of the
description key.) This option is cumulative.
This option is only needed if the internal field label is
supplied in the argument of command such as
"\glssetnoexpandfield".
