@kaiord/cli

Command-line interface for Kaiord workout file conversion. Convert workout files between FIT, KRD, TCX, and ZWO formats with ease.

Installation

Install globally using npm or pnpm:

npm install -g @kaiord/cli

or

pnpm add -g @kaiord/cli

After installation, the kaiord command will be available globally.

Usage

Convert Command

Convert workout files between different formats.

Basic Usage

kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd

FIT to KRD

kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd

KRD to FIT

kaiord convert --input workout.krd --output workout.fit

Batch Conversion

Convert multiple files using glob patterns:

kaiord convert --input "workouts/*.fit" --output-dir converted/

Format Override

Override automatic format detection:

kaiord convert --input data.bin --input-format fit --output workout.krd

Validate Command

Perform round-trip validation to verify data integrity.

Basic Validation

kaiord validate --input workout.fit

Custom Tolerances

Use a custom tolerance configuration file:

kaiord validate --input workout.fit --tolerance-config tolerance.json

Example tolerance.json:

{
  "time": { "absolute": 1, "unit": "seconds" },
  "power": { "absolute": 1, "percentage": 1, "unit": "watts" },
  "heartRate": { "absolute": 1, "unit": "bpm" },
  "cadence": { "absolute": 1, "unit": "rpm" }
}

Configuration File

You can create a .kaiordrc.json file to set default options. The CLI will search for this file in:

1. Current working directory
2. User home directory (~/.kaiordrc.json)

CLI options always take precedence over config file defaults.

Example Configuration

Create .kaiordrc.json in your project or home directory:

{
  "defaultInputFormat": "fit",
  "defaultOutputFormat": "krd",
  "defaultOutputDir": "./converted",
  "defaultToleranceConfig": "./tolerance.json",
  "verbose": false,
  "quiet": false,
  "json": false,
  "logFormat": "pretty"
}

Configuration Options

• defaultInputFormat: Default input format (fit, krd, tcx, zwo)
• defaultOutputFormat: Default output format (fit, krd, tcx, zwo)
• defaultOutputDir: Default output directory for batch conversions
• defaultToleranceConfig: Path to default tolerance configuration file
• verbose: Enable verbose logging by default
• quiet: Enable quiet mode by default
• json: Enable JSON output by default
• logFormat: Default log format (pretty or structured)

Usage with Config File

With a config file, you can simplify your commands:

# Without config file
kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd --output-format krd

# With config file (defaultOutputFormat: "krd")
kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd

CLI options override config defaults:

# Config has verbose: true, but --quiet overrides it
kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd --quiet

Global Options

Verbosity Control

# Verbose output (detailed logging)
kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd --verbose

# Quiet mode (errors only)
kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd --quiet

Output Format

# JSON output (machine-readable)
kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd --json

# Force pretty terminal output
kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd --log-format pretty

# Force structured JSON logs
kaiord convert --input workout.fit --output workout.krd --log-format json

Supported Formats

• FIT (.fit) - Garmin's binary workout file format
• KRD (.krd) - Kaiord's canonical JSON format
• TCX (.tcx) - Training Center XML format
• ZWO (.zwo) - Zwift workout XML format

Plugin System (Future Enhancement)

The CLI is designed with a plugin architecture that will allow third-party developers to add support for custom workout file formats without modifying the core library. See Plugin Architecture Documentation for details on the design.

Planned Features:

• Dynamic plugin discovery and loading
• Type-safe plugin interface
• Automatic format detection for plugin formats
• Plugin configuration via .kaiordrc.json
• Plugin management commands (kaiord plugins list, install, etc.)

Example Plugin Usage (Future):

# Install a plugin
npm install -g @kaiord/plugin-gpx

# Use plugin format
kaiord convert --input workout.gpx --output workout.krd

See Example GPX Plugin for a complete plugin implementation example.

Exit Codes

• 0: Success
• 1: Error (invalid arguments, file not found, parsing error, validation error)
