XDT CLI provides functionality for manipulating XDT files (see: libxdt on GitHub) with easy-to-use syntax.
I'm no longer using C++ for personal projects, thus this project's development has been discontinued. Check my GitHub or my website for projects coming in the future.
IMPORTANT: You MUST have a CXX environment variable defined, and configured to be the path to your C++ compiler of choice.
Execute the build_linux.sh file, which will produce a xdt executable in the bin/linux/ directory. If all is successful, you should see this:
$ ./build_linux.sh
Building libxdt [linux]...
Creating directories...
Compiling object files...
Building static library...
Removing temporary directories...
Building xdt-cli [linux]...
Creating directories...
Compiling...
$
I haven't made an official Windows build script, but the provided build_linux.sh and build_libxdt_linux.sh files should be easy to convert into a Windows build script with minimal effort, provided you have some experience with both .sh and .bat, or experience with compilers.
Executing xdt --help will yield help on syntax and general use of XDT CLI:
$ xdt --help
Usage: xdt <file> <action> [args...] [options...]
Actions:
list List all items in file.
get <names...> Get value(s) in file.
set <setters...> Set value(s) in file, by setters.
mutate <mutators...> Cast type of value to new type, by mutators.
remove <names...> Remove value(s) in file.
dump <directory> [items...] Dump items to directory. (All items by default.)
Setter: <type>:<name>=<value>
Mutator: <name>:<type>
Options:
--version or -v Display version information.
--help or -h Display this help information.
--backup or -b Create backup file before modification.
Types:
- byte Byte.
- bool Boolean.
- int16 16-bit integer (signed).
- uint16 16-bit integer (unsigned).
- int32 32-bit integer (signed).
- uint32 32-bit integer (unsigned).
- int64 64-bit integer (signed).
- uint64 64-bit integer (unsigned).
- float Float.
- double Double.
- time Timestamp.

Creating a file, myTable.xdt, with info about a person:
$ xdt myTable.xdt create string:name=John int32:year=1989 float:height=1.83
(ASCIIString) "name": "John"
(Int32) "year": 1989
(Float) "height": 1.83
Listing the contents:
$ xdt myTable.xdt list
File "myTable.xdt" (3 items):
(ASCIIString) "name": "John"
(Int32) "year": 1989
(Float) "height": 1.83
Changing the year item from a signed 32-bit integer, to an unsigned 16-bit integer:
$ xdt myTable.xdt mutate year:uint16
(Uint16) "year": 1989
Updating the height item from 1.83 to 1.82:
$ xdt myTable.xdt set float:height=1.82
(Float) "height": 1.82
Listing final file:
$ xdt myTable.xdt list
File "myTable.xdt" (3 items):
(ASCIIString) "name": "John"
(Uint16) "year": 1989
(Float) "height": 1.82
