TLV string to JSON object

This library provides a simple way to convert TLV string to a JSON object.

The type and length are fixed in size, and the value field is of variable size.

More information here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type–length–value

Examples

Simple example

Input string:

0105HELLO0205WORLD0304A943

Implementation:

import { TLV } from 'tlv-to-json';

const output = TLV.toJSON('/* PUT HERE THE INPUT STRING */');

console.log(JSON.stringify(output, null, 2));

Output JSON:

{
  "T01": "HELLO",
  "T02": "WORLD",
  "T03": "A943"
}

Please note types are prefixed with the letter T.

Output JSON:

{
  "T01": "HELLO",
  "T02": {
    "T01": {
      "T01": {
        "T01": {
          "T01": {
            "T01": {
              "T01": "WORLD"

  "T03": "4369"
}

CRC Check

By default, the toJSON function assume the input string's last 4 digits are a CRC16 Checksum Hexadecimal.

To disable the checksum verificación you can pass false to the second parameter:

const json = TLV.toJSON('/* THE INPUT STRING */', false);

In case of checksum error, this message will be displayed:

Checksum failed (Calculated: AAE6, Expected: 0989)
