NAME

       fwupdtool — standalone firmware update utility

SYNOPSIS

       fwupdtool [CMD]

DESCRIPTION

       This  tool  allows an administrator to use fwupd plugins directly without using the daemon process, which
       may be faster or easier to use when creating or debugging specific plugins.  For most end-users, fwupdmgr
       is a more suitable program to use in almost all cases.

       Additionally fwupdtool can be used to convert firmware from various different formats, or to  modify  the
       images  contained  inside  the  container  firmware  file.  For example, you can convert DFU or Intel HEX
       firmware into the vendor-specific format.

OPTIONS

       The fwupdtool command takes various options depending on the action.  Run fwupdtool --help for  the  full
       list.  Note that some runtimes failures can be ignored using --force.

EXIT STATUS

       Commands that successfully execute will return “0”, with generic failure as “1”.

       There  are also several other exit codes used: A return code of “2” is used for commands that have no ac‐
       tions but were successfully executed, and “3” is used when a resource was not found.
