Usage ===== The library exposes a single function ``convert`` which enables conversion from different input formats (``oldhepdata``, ``yaml``) to different output formats (``csv``, ``root``, ``yaml``, ``yoda``, ``yoda1``), by using a simple in-memory intermediary format. Python ------ .. code:: python import hepdata_converter hepdata_converter.convert('sample.oldhepdata', 'Sample', options={'input_format': 'oldhepdata', 'output_format': 'yaml'}) CLI --- .. code:: bash hepdata-converter -i oldhepdata -o yaml sample.oldhepdata Sample The default input and output formats are ``yaml`` if not specified explicitly. See a help message with more detailed options using ``hepdata-converter -h``.
