-inputPath specifies the local file system path to the input file
-inputFormat specifies the input format (one of raw, n2k, CAN, ydr)
-outputFormat specifies the output format (one of raw, n2k)
-outputPath specifies the local file system output path. ".<fileTypeOut>" will be appended
-groupByPGN sorts the output logs, grouped by PGN, which can be useful for testing

Overview:

read input into contents of struct inputType
convert input type to canonical packets type
initialize a struct of outputType with packets from inputType struct
write the (transformed) contents to filePathOut
grouped by PGN if groupByPgns option specified
