"""Generate a leveled reference-question CSV from a knowledge graph.
Authors: Simon Schramm (simon.schramm@bmw.de) and Dominik Sammet (dominik.sammet@bmw.de)
This standalone script reads a graph JSON file containing ``nodes`` and
``relationships`` and writes a CSV with the columns user_group,
reference_question, category, level, reference_answer, reference_evidence,
and all_node_ids. A template CSV can optionally be supplied to match its
question distribution.
Requirements: Python 3.11 or newer. Uses only the Python standard library.
Usage:
python create_reference_questions_standalone.py graph.json
python create_reference_questions_standalone.py graph.json \
--template reference_questions_template.csv \
--output reference_questions.csv
