DESCRIPTION
Portrait is defined as having 'rotate' metadata of 90 or 270. Otherwise, media is assumed to be 'landscape'.
OPTIONS
*
marks required options.
Main options
- --backend=s
-
Choose a specific backend.
- --media=s*
-
Media file/URL.
- --quiet-arg, --silent, -q
-
Don't output anything on command-line, just return appropriate exit code.
Logging options
- --debug
-
Shortcut for --log-level=debug.
- --log-level=s
-
Set log level.
- --quiet
-
Shortcut for --log-level=error.
- --trace
-
Shortcut for --log-level=trace.
- --verbose
-
Shortcut for --log-level=info.
Output options
- --format=s
-
Choose output format, e.g. json, text.
Default value:
undef
- --json
-
Set output format to json.
- --naked-res
-
When outputing as JSON, strip result envelope.
Default value:
0
By default, when outputing as JSON, the full enveloped result is returned, e.g.:
[200,"OK",[1,2,3],{"func.extra"=>4}]
The reason is so you can get the status (1st element), status message (2nd element) as well as result metadata/extra result (4th element) instead of just the result (3rd element). However, sometimes you want just the result, e.g. when you want to pipe the result for more post-processing. In this case you can use `--naked-res` so you just get:
[1,2,3]
- --page-result
-
Filter output through a pager.
- --view-result
-
View output using a viewer.
