ParseNBT.js

ParseNBT.js is a JavaScript-based minecraft NBT parser and serializer.

Install

npm i parsenbt-js

Usage

Reader

const fs = require('fs'), NBT = require('parsenbt-js');

var binData = fs.readFileSync('./path/of/nbt.nbt');
// The NBT.Reaer returns an object
console.log(NBT.Reader(binData));

Writer

const fs = require('fs'), NBT = require('parsenbt-js');

var nbtData = {
  "comp>": {
    "i32>count": 100,
    "list>pos": [ "i32", 0, 0, 0 ],
    "i64>ticks": { "low": 114514, "high": 1919810 }
  }
};

// The NBT.Writer returns a buffer
// The second param determined the byte order
// little-endian if it's true
console.log(NBT.Writer(nbtData, !0));

API

See API.md

Data Structure

ParseNBT.js' output uses a special data structure for keys of the object.

For example:

{
  "comp>": { 
    "i32>count": 100,
    "list>pos": [ "i32", 0, 0, 0 ],
    "i64>ticks": { "low": 114514, "high": 1919810 }
  }
}

In the object, keys are separated into two parts with character >.

In the left-hand-side is the tag type, and the right-hand-side is the tag name. Tag name can be an empty string like above.

The comparison table between the type string and the actual type is as follows:

Tag ID Tag Type Tag Type String
0 TAG_End null
1 TAG_Byte i8
2 TAG_Short i16
3 TAG_Int i32
4 TAG_Long i64
5 TAG_Float f32
6 TAG_Double f64
7 TAG_Byte_Array a8
8 TAG_String str
9 TAG_List list
10 TAG_Compound comp
11 TAG_Int_Array a32
12 TAG_Long_Array a64

Especially, the type of elements in TAG_List is the first element of the list array. And for TAG_Long, it'll be formatted into an object which has two values named low and high, that produces the high 32 bits and the low 32 bits separately.
