Retrieving simplified card information

cardclient card-detail allows card information about someone to be easily retrieved, e.g.

cardclient card-detail idm24 --identifier-scheme=crsid

but the output is verbose

cardclient export allows filtering but requires the config.yml to be edited to search for one CRSID and the output is a file which then needs to be openned.

Is there a way to allow filtered output to stdout with identifers passed on the command line?

Thanks

Iain

Hi Iain,

It's probably best to pipe the output through jq which allows for processing of json on stdout.

For example, you could output the mifare id and crsid of a card by piping the cardclient through jq with the following command:

cardclient card-detail wgd23 --identifier-scheme crsid --normalize --quiet | jq '.[] | select(.status=="ISSUED") | {mifare_id, crsid}'

Would this solve your use case?

Many thanks

Monty

Hi Monty, Perfect. I'm after Mifare_number but that is great. This will save lots of emails to the card office.

Thanks

Iain
