NAME

cif-validate - Validate the content of a mmCIF file

SYNOPSIS

cif-validate [OPTION] file [output-file]

DESCRIPTION

The mmCIF format is not really new, but the implementation of this format has been taken up slowly. Unfornately, the knowledge of the ins and outs of the format are still poorly understood and many files written contain errors.

cif-validate can be used to help debug the creation of mmCIF files. By default it uses the dictionary provided by libcifpp (which may be updated automatically, depending on your installion). But you can also specify your own dictionary file using the --dict option.

OPTIONS

--dict =<file>

The mmCIF dictionary file to use. The default is mmcif_pdbx.dic .

--validate-links

Validate all links. Will output information about missing parent category items.

--verbose , -v

Be more verbose, useful to diagnose validation errors. Can be specified multiple times to increase verbosity level.

--print

Print a formatted version of the input file to stdout or to output-file if specified.
