NAME

       folialint ‐ check validity of FoLiA documents

SYNOPSIS

       folialint [options] FILE(S)

DESCRIPTION

       folialint will check the validity of FoLiA files on a surface level:

       ‐ Is the tag structure according to the definition?

       ‐ Are all required elements and attributes present?

       ‐ Are the attributes and values valid?

       ‐ Are all annotations correctly declared?

       ‐ Is all text consistent?

OPTIONS

       --output file
              write output to 'file'. (default is stdout).  Assumes only 1 inputfile.
       --nooutput
              suppress al output except errors
       --nochecktext
              Disable checking text consistency. (for older FoLiA versions this wasn't forced to be so. Which is
              wrong )
       --fixtext
              Attempt  to fix text problems like wrong offset's. Might be dangerous, and the default is to DON'T
              do it.
       -a or --autodeclare
              Attempt to automaticly fix missing annotations. (default: false)
       --strip
              strip all information from the file that makes comparison hard.   Notably  date/time  information.
              This also enable '--canonical' output, meaning that otherwise unsorted tags are output in the same
              order every time.
       --permissive
              Accept documents with missing namespace declarations.
       --warn
              add some extra (warning) checks:

              ‐ About unused set declarations

              ‐ About possible incompatabilities between the current library version and the document version.
       --canonical or --KANON
              output annotation declarations and FoLiA nodes in a fixed (canonical) order.  This might make tree
              comparisons easier.
       -d or --debug level
              run with a debug level of level
       -V or --version
              Show VERSION
       -h or --help
              Show some help
