.Op Fl f Ar output_format
.Op Fl i Ar input_format

.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
can be used to convert between
.Em sudoers
security policy file formats.
The default input format is sudoers.
The default output format is LDIF.
It is only possible to convert a
.Em sudoers
file that is syntactically correct.
.Pp
If no
.Ar input_file
is specified, or if it is
.Ql - ,
the policy is read from the standard input.
By default, the result is written to the standard output.
.Pp
The options are as follows:
.Bl -tag -width Fl
.It Fl b Ar dn , Fl -base Ns = Ns Ar dn
The base DN (distinguished name) that will be used when performing
LDAP queries.
Typically this is of the form
.Li ou=SUDOers,dc=my-domain,dc=com
for the domain
.Li my-domain.com .
If this option is not specified, the value of the
.Ev SUDOERS_BASE
environment variable will be used instead.
Only necessary when converting to LDIF format.
.It Fl c Ar conf_file , Fl -config Ns = Ns Ar conf_file
Specify the path to the configuration file.
Defaults to
.Pa @sysconfdir@/cvtsudoers.conf .
.It Fl d Ar deftypes , Fl -defaults Ns = Ns Ar deftypes
Only convert
.Li Defaults
entries of the specified types.
One or more
.Li Defaults
types may be specified, separated by a comma
.Pq Ql \&, .
The supported types are:
.Bl -tag -width 8n
.It all
All Defaults entries.
.It global
Global Defaults entries that are applied regardless of
user, runas, host or command.
.It user
Per-user Defaults entries.
.It runas
Per-runas user Defaults entries.
.It host
Per-host Defaults entries.
.It command
Per-command Defaults entries.
.El
.Pp
See the
.Sy Defaults
section in
.Xr sudoers @mansectform@
for more information.
.Pp
If the
.Fl d
option is not specified, all
.Li Defaults
entries will be converted.
.It Fl e , Fl -expand-aliases
Expand aliases in
.Ar input_file .
Aliases are preserved by default when the output
.Ar format
is JSON or sudoers.
.It Fl f Ar output_format , Fl -output-format Ns = Ns Ar output_format
Specify the output format (case-insensitive).
The following formats are supported:
.Bl -tag -width 8n
.It JSON
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) files are usually easier for
third-party applications to consume than the traditional
.Em sudoers
format.
The various values have explicit types which removes much of the
ambiguity of the
.Em sudoers
format.
.It LDIF
LDIF (LDAP Data Interchange Format) files can be imported into an LDAP
server for use with
.Xr sudoers.ldap @mansectform@ .
.Pp
Conversion to LDIF has the following limitations:
.Bl -bullet -width 1n
.It
Command, host, runas and user-specific Defaults lines cannot be
translated as they don't have an equivalent in the sudoers LDAP schema.
.It
Command, host, runas and user aliases are not supported by the
sudoers LDAP schema so they are expanded during the conversion.
.El
.It sudoers
Traditional sudoers format.
A new sudoers file will be reconstructed from the parsed input file.
Comments are not preserved and data from any include files will be
output inline.
.El
.It Fl h , Fl -help
Display a short help message to the standard output and exit.
.It Fl i Ar input_format , Fl -input-format Ns = Ns Ar input_format
Specify the input format.
The following formats are supported:
.Bl -tag -width 8n
.It LDIF
LDIF (LDAP Data Interchange Format) files can be exported from an LDAP
server to convert security policies used by
.Xr sudoers.ldap @mansectform@ .
If a base DN (distinguished name) is specified, only sudoRole objects
that match the base DN will be processed.
Not all sudoOptions specified in a sudoRole can be translated from
LDIF to sudoers format.
.It sudoers
Traditional sudoers format.
This is the default input format.
.El
.It Fl I Ar increment , Fl -increment Ns = Ns Ar increment
When generating LDIF output, increment each sudoOrder attribute by
the specified number.
Defaults to an increment of 1.
.It Fl m Ar filter , Fl -match Ns = Ns Ar filter
Only output rules that match the specified
.Ar filter .
A
.Ar filter
expression is made up of one or more
.Sy key = Ar value
pairs, separated by a comma
.Pq Ql \&, .
The
.Sy key
may be
.Dq user ,
.Dq group
or
.Dq host .
For example,
.Sy user No = Ar operator
or
.Sy host No = Ar www .
An upper-case User_Alias or Host_Alias may be specified as the
.Dq user
or
.Dq host .
.Pp
A matching
.Em sudoers
rule may also include users, groups and hosts that are not part of the
.Ar filter .
This can happen when a rule includes multiple users, groups or hosts.
To prune out any non-matching user, group or host from the rules, the
.Fl p
option may be used.
.Pp
By default, the password and group databases are not consulted when matching
against the filter so the users and groups do not need to be present
on the local system (see the
.Fl M
option).
Only aliases that are referenced by the filtered policy rules will
be displayed.
.It Fl M , Fl -match-local
When the
.Fl m
option is also specified, use password and group database information
when matching users and groups in the filter.
Only users and groups in the filter that exist on the local system will match,
and a user's groups will automatically be added to the filter.
If the
.Fl M
is
.Em not
specified, users and groups in the filter do not need to exist on the
local system, but all groups used for matching must be explicitly listed
in the filter.
.It Fl o Ar output_file , Fl -output Ns = Ns Ar output_file
Write the converted output to
.Ar output_file .
If no
.Ar output_file
is specified, or if it is
.Ql - ,
the converted
.Em sudoers
policy will be written to the standard output.
.It Fl O Ar start_point , Fl -order-start Ns = Ns Ar start_point
When generating LDIF output, use the number specified by
.Ar start_point
in the sudoOrder attribute of the first sudoRole object.
Subsequent sudoRole object use a sudoOrder value generated by adding an
.Ar increment ,
see the
.Fl I
option for details.
Defaults to a starting point of 1.
A starting point of 0 will disable the generation of sudoOrder
attributes in the resulting LDIF file.
.It Fl p , Fl -prune-matches
When the
.Fl m
option is also specified,
.Nm
will prune out non-matching users, groups and hosts from
matching entries.
.It Fl P Ar padding , Fl -padding Ns = Ns Ar padding
When generating LDIF output, construct the initial sudoOrder value by
concatenating
.Ar order_start
and
.Ar increment ,
padding the
.Ar increment
with zeros until it consists of
.Ar padding
digits.
For example, if
.Ar order_start
is 1027,
.Ar padding
is 3, and
.Ar increment
is 1, the value of sudoOrder for the first entry will be 1027000,
followed by 1027001, 1027002, etc.
If the number of sudoRole entries is larger than the padding would allow,
.Nm
will exit with an error.
By default, no padding is performed.
.It Fl s Ar sections , Fl -suppress Ns = Ns Ar sections
Suppress the output of specific
.Ar sections
of the security policy.
One or more section names may be specified, separated by a comma
.Pq Ql \&, .
The supported section name are:
.Sy defaults ,
.Sy aliases
and
.Sy privileges
(which may be shortened to
.Sy privs ) .
.It Fl V , -version
Print the
.Nm
and
.Em sudoers
grammar versions and exit.
.El
.Pp
Options in the form
.Dq keyword = value
may also be specified in a configuration file,
.Pa @sysconfdir@/cvtsudoers.conf
by default.

$ cvtsudoers -f json -o sudoers.json /etc/sudoers
.Ed
.Pp
Parse
.Pa /etc/sudoers
and display only rules that match user
.Em ambrose
on host
.Em hastur :

.Ed
.Pp
Same as above, but expand aliases and prune out any non-matching
users and hosts from the expanded entries.
