Microsoft AVI file: JavaScript parsing library

File extension

avi

KS implementation details

License: CC0-1.0
Minimal Kaitai Struct required: 0.7

References

This page hosts a formal specification of Microsoft AVI file using Kaitai Struct. This specification can be automatically translated into a variety of programming languages to get a parsing library.

Usage

Runtime library

All parsing code for JavaScript generated by Kaitai Struct depends on the JavaScript runtime library. You have to install it before you can parse data.

The JavaScript runtime library is available at npm:

npm install kaitai-struct

Code

See the usage examples in the JavaScript notes.

Parse structure from an ArrayBuffer:

var arrayBuffer = ...;
var data = new Avi(new KaitaiStream(arrayBuffer));

After that, one can get various attributes from the structure by accessing fields or properties like:

data.magic1 // => get magic1

JavaScript source code to parse Microsoft AVI file

Avi.js

// This is a generated file! Please edit source .ksy file and use kaitai-struct-compiler to rebuild
