For simplicity, you can write ~/.redmine\_exporter.conf as

{
	"redmine_url": "<redmine url>",
	"redmine_key": "<your redmine key>",
	"project": "<default redmine project>",
    "css": "<default css full path>",
    "convert_svg_opts": "-antialias -font Noto-Sans-CJK-SC-Thin -background none"
}

The following options can be set in ~/.redmine\_exporter.conf:

redmine_url: identical to --redmine-url and env REDMINE_URL
redmine_key: identical to --redmine-key and env REDMINE_KEY
project: identical to --project and env REDMINE_PROJECT
css: identical to --css and env REDMINE_CSS
docbook_tpl: identical to --docbook-tpl and REDMINE_DOCKBOOK_TPL
convert_svg_opts: identical to --convert-svg-opts

Export Textile

./redmine_exporter -t textile "<wiki>"

Export HTML with CSS

./redmine_exporter -t html --css default.css "<wiki>"

Export HTML and convert it to PDF by WeasyPrint

./redmine_exporter -t pdf --weasyprint --css default.css "<wiki>"

It is better than exporting PDF directly.

Export DocBook with new title

./redmine_exporter -t docbook --title "<new title>" "<wiki>"
