cffconvert --validate -i CITATION.cff
cffconvert --validate -i ${PWD}/CITATION.cff

Validating a remote CITATION.cff file

cffconvert --validate --url https://github.com/<org>/<repo>
cffconvert --validate --url https://github.com/<org>/<repo>/commit/<sha>
cffconvert --validate --url https://github.com/<org>/<repo>/tree/<sha>
cffconvert --validate --url https://github.com/<org>/<repo>/tree/<tag>
cffconvert --validate --url https://github.com/<org>/<repo>/tree/<branch>

Converting metadata to other formats

If there is a valid CITATION.cff file in the current directory, you can convert to various other formats and print the result on standard out with:

cffconvert -f bibtex
cffconvert -f codemeta
cffconvert -f endnote
cffconvert -f ris
cffconvert -f schema.org
cffconvert -f zenodo
cffconvert -f apalike

Writing to a file

# with i/o redirection:
cffconvert -f bibtex > bibtex.bib
cffconvert -f zenodo > zenodo.json
cffconvert -f endnote > ${PWD}/endnote.enw
# etc

# without i/o redirection
cffconvert -f bibtex -o bibtex.bib
