.. man NOTES
The FORMAT specifier syntax
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The ``--format`` option uses python's `format string syntax
<https://docs.python.org/3.9/library/string.html#formatstrings>`_.
Examples:
::
$ borg diff --format '{content:30} {path}{NL}' ArchiveFoo ArchiveBar
modified: +4.1 kB -1.0 kB file-diff
...
# {VAR:<NUMBER} - pad to NUMBER columns left-aligned.
# {VAR:>NUMBER} - pad to NUMBER columns right-aligned.
$ borg diff --format '{content:>30} {path}{NL}' ArchiveFoo ArchiveBar
modified: +4.1 kB -1.0 kB file-diff
...
The following keys are always available:
- NEWLINE: OS dependent line separator
- NL: alias of NEWLINE
- NUL: NUL character for creating print0 / xargs -0 like output
- SPACE: space character
- TAB: tab character
- CR: carriage return character
- LF: line feed character
Keys available only when showing differences between archives:
- path: archived file path
- change: all available changes
- content: file content change
- mode: file mode change
- type: file type change
- owner: file owner (user/group) change
- group: file group change
- user: file user change
- link: file link change
- directory: file directory change
- blkdev: file block device change
- chrdev: file character device change
- fifo: file fifo change
- mtime: file modification time change
- ctime: file change time change
- isomtime: file modification time change (ISO 8601)
- isoctime: file creation time change (ISO 8601)
