The Schema Roundtrip tool is a command-line tool that deserializes an EC Schema XML file and then re-serializes the schema back to XML, optionally comparing the output schema file to the original schema using the @bentley/schema-comparer tool. Any differences discovered during the comparison are output to file.

Quick Overview

npm install -g @bentley/schema-roundtrip

schema-roundtrip -i c:\dir1\Schema.ecschema.xml -o c:\Desired\Output\Path\ -r c:\\dir1 -r c:\\dir2 -c

-r, --ref {path}: Comma-separated list of paths to search when locating schema 1 references (Ex. '-r1 c:\dir1, c:\dir2').

-c, --compare {flag}: Indicates if the resultant serialized schema should be compared to the input schema.
