NAME

zoomsh - ZOOM shell

SYNOPSIS

zoomsh [ -a apdufile ] [ -e ] [ -v loglevel ] [commands...]

DESCRIPTION

zoomsh is a ZOOM client with a simple command line interface. The client demonstrates the ZOOM API and is useful for testing targets.

You may pass one or more commands to zoomsh . These commands are invoked first.

OPTIONS

-a apdufile

Logs protocol packages into apdufile (APDU log).

-e

Makes zoomsh stop processing commands as soon as an error occur. The exit code of zoomsh is 1 if error occurs; 0 otherwise.

-v loglevel

Sets YAZ log level to loglevel .

EXAMPLES

If you start the yaz-ztest in one console you can use the ZOOM shell as follows:

$ zoomsh
ZOOM>connect localhost:9999
ZOOM>search computer
localhost:9999: 7 hits
ZOOM>show 0 1
