ADIF Multitool – validate, modify and convert ham radio log files

ADIF Multitool is a command-line tool to validate, modify, and convert ham radio log files.

adifmt provides a suite of commands for working with ADIF logs from ham radio software. It is run from a shell, via Terminal on macOS and PowerShell, cmd.exe, or Windows Terminal on Windows. Each adifmt invocation reads log files from the command line or standard input and prints an ADIF log to standard output, allowing multiple commands to be chained together in a pipeline. For example, to add a BAND field based on the FREQ (radio frequency) field, add your station’s maidenhead locator (MY_GRIDSQURE) to all entries, automatically fix some incorrectly formatted fields, validate that all fields are properly formatted, and save a log file containing only SSB voice contacts, a pipeline might look like

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

• Read from and write to the following formats. ADI (tag-based) and ADX (XML-based) formats are specified by ADIF. The Cabrillo V3 contest log format is specified by WWROF. Others use standard formats for arbitrary key-value data.
• Input files can have fields with any names, even if they’re not part of the ADIF spec. The --userdef option will add user-defined field metadata to ADI and ADX output specifying type, range, or valid enumeration values. ADX XML tags must be upper case; other formats accept any case field names in input files and use UPPER_SNAKE_CASE for output by default. Application-defined fields in CSV, TSV, and JSON should use the APP_PROGRAMNAME_FIELD_NAME syntax used in ADI files. JSON input files should be structured as follows; HEADER is optional.
