Reference

Precise, lookup-oriented pages that the task-based guides link into. Each page is a flat reference for one part of docmeta — commands, config keys, resolution rules, formats, output, and the built-in schema. Use the table of contents on each page to jump to the exact entry you need.

CLI referenceEvery command, argument, and flag: validate, get, and schemas — plus the shared input model.

Configuration referencedocmeta.config.yaml keys, types, defaults, discovery rules, and how config merges with CLI flags.

Schema resolutionThe precedence chain, the three reference kinds, and the supported JSON Schema dialects.

Supported formatsExtractors, file extensions, and how metadata is read from each input format.

Output & exit codesThe pretty, json, and github output formats; exit codes; and color behavior.

Built-in OKF schemaThe google:okf:0.1 schema shipped with docmeta: fields, formats, and dialect.
