NBT.js Build Status

By Sijmen Mulder and a host of wonderful contributors.

NBT.js is a JavaScript parser and serializer for NBT archives, for use with Node.js or the browser.

Usage

After var nbt = require('nbt') or <script src="nbt.js"></script>, you can use nbt.parse(data, callback) to convert NBT data into a regular JavaScript object.

var fs = require('fs'),
    nbt = require('nbt');
 
var data = fs.readFileSync('fixtures/bigtest.nbt.gz');
nbt.parse(data, function(error, data) {
    if (error) { throw error; }
 
    console.log(data.value.stringTest.value);
    console.log(data.value['nested compound test'].value);
});

If the data is gzipped, it is automatically decompressed first. When running in the browser, window.zlib is required for this to work.

Tag names are copied verbatim, and as some names are not valid JavaScript names, use of the indexer may be required – such as with the nested compound test in the example above.
