DIR Projector

Package for creating Shockwave Director projectors

npm node

size downloads

main

Overview

Creates Shockwave Director projectors from a projector skeleton.

Takes either a directory containing a skeleton or an archive containing a skeleton (shockpkg package file). Can also generate HTML files to embed content.

Can also create bundles that group the projector and resources in a directory beside a single launcher for Windows or within an application bundle for macOS.

Reading DMG projector packages is only supported on macOS, using ZIP packages instead is recommended.

Currently only flat projectors are supported, not the kind that Director makes where everything is appended to the main binary in some format, and extracted to a temporary directory when run.

Bundle

Bundle Otto

Bundle Otto Windows

import {BundleOttoWindows} from '@shockpkg/dir-projector';

const bundle = new BundleOttoWindows('bundle-windows/application.exe');

// Use projector property to set options.
bundle.projector.skeleton = 'skeleton.zip';

// File to create config file with.
bundle.projector.configFile = 'config.ini';

await bundle.write(async b => {
	// Add resources in callback.
	await b.copyResource('movie.dir', 'movie.dir');
});

Bundle Otto Mac

import {BundleOttoMac} from '@shockpkg/dir-projector';

const bundle = new BundleOttoMac('bundle-mac/application.app');

// Use projector property to set options.
bundle.projector.skeleton = 'skeleton.zip';

// File to create config file with.
bundle.projector.configFile = 'config.ini';

await bundle.write(async b => {
	// Add resources in callback.
	await b.copyResource('movie.dir', 'movie.dir');
});

Bundle HTML

import {BundleHtml} from '@shockpkg/dir-projector';

const bundle = new BundleHtml('bundle-html/application.html');

// Use projector property to set options.
bundle.projector.src = 'movie.dir';
bundle.projector.width = 640;
bundle.projector.height = 480;

await bundle.write(async b => {
	// Add resources in callback.
	await b.copyResource('movie.dir', 'movie.dir');
});

A bundle can also be made "flat" into an empty directory without nesting the resources or adding a launcher stub by passing true as the second argument to the constructor.
