Android Dalvik VM executable (dex): JavaScript parsing library

Android OS applications executables are typically stored in its own format, optimized for more efficient execution in Dalvik virtual machine.

This format is loosely similar to Java .class file format and generally holds the similar set of data: i.e. classes, methods, fields, annotations, etc.

This page hosts a formal specification of Android Dalvik VM executable (dex) 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 Dex(new KaitaiStream(arrayBuffer));

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

data.stringIds // => string identifiers list.

These are identifiers for all the strings used by this file, either for
internal naming (e.g., type descriptors) or as constant objects referred to by code.

This list must be sorted by string contents, using UTF-16 code point values
(not in a locale-sensitive manner), and it must not contain any duplicate entries.
