Overview

We support some basic command line options across all the tools. The switches can be prefixed with -, --, or / and are not case-sensitive.

Properties

Setting Value
VersionOutput the tool's version to the console and exit. (can also be abbreviated as v or ver)
HelpOutput the command line help to see available options. (can also be abbreviated as h or ?)
LogPathSets the location where log files should be written and also where log backups are created. By default, logs are written alongside the application files.

Example: --LogPath="C:/Temp"

ConfigFileSpecify an alternate file and/or location for the configuration to be used in place of the appsettings.json located next to the application.

Example: --ConfigFile="C:/Temp/MyConfig.json"
