DESCRIPTION
**DESCRIPTION**
Gramps is a Free/OpenSource genealogy program. It is written in Python,
using the GTK+/GNOME interface. Gramps should seem familiar to anyone
who has used other genealogy programs before such as Family Tree Maker

as a family tree database directory, then it is opened and an

rest of the options is ignored. This way of launching is suit‐
able for using gramps as a handler for genealogical data in e.g.
web browsers. This invocation can accept any data format native
to gramps, see below.
-f,--format= FORMAT
Explicitly specify format of FILE given by preceding -i, or -e
option. If the -f option is not given for any FILE, the format
of that file is guessed according to its extension or MIME-type.
**-f** , **--format=** *FORMAT*
Explicitly specify format of *FILE* given by preceding **-i** ,
or **-e** option. If the **-f** option is not given for any
*FILE* , the format of that file is guessed according to its extension
or MIME-type.
Formats available for export are gramps-xml (guessed if FILE
ends with .gramps), gedcom (guessed if FILE ends with .ged), or
any file export available through the Gramps plugin system.
Formats available for export are **gramps-xml** (guessed if *FILE*
ends with **.gramps** ), **gedcom** (guessed if *FILE* ends with
**.ged** ), or any file export available through the Gramps plugin

Formats available for import are grdb, gramps-xml, gedcom,
gramps-pkg (guessed if FILE ends with .gpkg), and geneweb
(guessed if FILE ends with .gw).
Formats available for import are **gramps-xml** , **gedcom** ,

guessed, always specify with -f option).

**-u** , **--force-unlock**
Unlock a locked database.
-O,--open= DATABASE
Open DATABASE which must be an existing database directory or
**-O** , **--open=** *DATABASE*
Open *DATABASE* which must be an existing database directory or
existing family tree name. If no action, import or export
options are given on the command line then an interactive ses‐
sion is started using that database.
-i,--import= FILE
Import data from FILE. If you haven't specified a database then
**-i** , **--import=** *FILE*
Import data from *FILE* . If you haven't specified a database then
a temporary database is used; this is deleted when you exit
gramps.
When more than one input file is given, each has to be preceded
by -i flag. The files are imported in the specified order, i.e.
-i FILE1 -i FILE2 and -i FILE2 -i FILE1 might produce different

Perform *ACTION* on the imported data. This is done after all
imports are successfully completed. Currently available actions

**Operation**
If the first argument on the command line does not start with dash

given by the first argument and start interactive session, ignoring the
rest of the command line arguments.
If the -O flag is given, then gramps will try opening the supplied
If the **-O** flag is given, then gramps will try opening the supplied

dumped to stdout (if these are exceptions handled by gramps) or to

out and stderr to save messages and errors in files.

EXAMPLES
**EXAMPLES**
To open an existing family tree and import an xml file into it, one
may type:
gramps -O 'My Family Tree' -i ~/db3.gramps
**gramps -O** *'My Family Tree'* **-i** *~/db3.gramps*
The above changes the opened family tree, to do the same, but import
both in a temporary family tree and start an interactive session, one
may type:
gramps -i 'My Family Tree' -i ~/db3.gramps
**gramps -i** *'My Family Tree'* **-i** *~/db3.gramps*
To import four databases (whose formats can be determined from their
names) and then check the resulting database for errors, one may type:
gramps -i file1.ged -i file2.tgz -i ~/db3.gramps -i file4.wft -a
check
**gramps -i** *file1.ged* **-i** *file2.tgz* **-i** *~/db3.gramps*
**-i** *file4.wft* **-a** *check*
To explicitly specify the formats in the above example, append file‐
names with appropriate -f options:
gramps -i file1.ged -f gedcom -i file2.tgz -f gramps-pkg -i
~/db3.gramps -f gramps-xml -i file4.wft -f wft -a check
names with appropriate **-f** options:
To record the database resulting from all imports, supply -e flag (use
-f if the filename does not allow gramps to guess the format):
gramps -i file1.ged -i file2.tgz -e ~/new-package -f gramps-pkg
**gramps -i** *file1.ged* **-f** *gedcom* **-i** *file2.tgz* **-f**
*gramps-pkg* **-i** *~/db3.gramps* **-f** *gramps-xml* **-i** *file4.wft*
**-f** *wft* **-a** *check*
To record the database resulting from all imports, supply **-e** flag (use
**-f** if the filename does not allow gramps to guess the format):
**gramps -i** *file1.ged* **-i** *file2.tgz* **-e** *~/new-package*
**-f** *gramps-pkg*
To import three databases and start interactive gramps session with the
result:
gramps -i file1.ged -i file2.tgz -i ~/db3.gramps
**gramps -i** *file1.ged* **-i** *file2.tgz* **-i** *~/db3.gramps*
To run the Verify tool from the commandline and output the result to
stdout:
gramps -O 'My Family Tree' -a tool -p name=verify
**gramps -O** *'My Family Tree'* **-a** *tool* **-p name=** *verify*

CONCEPTS
**CONCEPTS**
Supports a python-based plugin system, allowing import and export writ‐
ers, report generators, tools, and display filters to be added without
modification of the main program.
In addition to generating direct printer output, report generators also
