The functionality of the HIPAA Compliance Editor as a compliance check can also be automated.
We use command line arguments to tell the application what to do.
In the case of the HIPAA Compliance Editor, there is only one argument: The file location.
The location can either be
| • | a path to a file |
or
| • | a folder or directory path |
The program will probe the nature of the argument and verify whether it is a file or directory and if this path exists.
After that the program will look up the settings you saved and make a report in the format(s) previously selected.
If you selected to sort the files, this will be done accordingly.
Example:
A file path:
Example of the command line argument being a folder
or a file path
This is obviously a file path
