| ### Converts Reaper data file (.rpp) to YAML, using Awk. | |
| ### All scalar values will be enclosed in single quotes. | |
| ### | |
| ### Usage: (with standard input) cat <reaper-data-file.rpp> | <this-script-file> | |
| ### (with filename as first arg) <this-script-file> <reaper-data-file.rpp> | |
| ### | |
| ### Returns: formatted YAML document | |
| ### | |
| ### Example usage with yq (shell-based yaml parser): | |
| ### | |
| ### Returns all track names. | |
| ### ./convert_rpp_to_yaml.sh example.rpp | yq e '.REAPER_PROJECT.TRACK[].NAME' - | |
| ### | |
| ### Returns all source file names. | |
| ### ./convert_rpp_to_yaml.sh example.rpp | yq e '.REAPER_PROJECT.TRACK[].ITEM[].SOURCE.FILE' - | |
| ### | |
| ### Example usage with ruby: | |
| ### | |
| ### ./convert_rpp_to_yaml.sh example.rpp | ruby -r 'yaml' -e 'puts YAML.load(STDIN).to_yaml' | |
| ### | |
| ### Example ruby script to iterate through tracks, gathering names (from jamulus user) | |
| ### and actual file paths. This can be expanded to rename wav files with the jamulus user name. | |
| ### | |
| ### jamulus_rpp_converted_to_yaml['REAPER_PROJECT']['TRACK'].each do |track| | |
| ### puts track['NAME'] | |
| ### track['ITEM'].each do |item| | |
| ### puts item['SOURCE']['FILE'] | |
| ### end | |
| ### end | |
| ### | |
| ### Tested on OSX 10.14, Debian 9, Alpine Linux 3.14 (BusyBox 1.33) | |
