The data format of Macintosh resource forks, used on Classic Mac OS and Mac OS X/macOS to store additional structured data along with a file's main data (the data fork). The kinds of data stored in resource forks include:
Macintosh file systems (MFS, HFS, HFS+, APFS) support resource forks natively, which allows storing resources along with any file. Non-Macintosh file systems and protocols have little or no support for resource forks, so the resource fork data must be stored in some other way when using such file systems or protocols. Various file formats and tools exist for this purpose, such as BinHex, MacBinary, AppleSingle, AppleDouble, or QuickTime RezWack. In some cases, resource forks are stored as plain data in separate files with a .rsrc extension, even on Mac systems that natively support resource forks.
On modern Mac OS X/macOS systems, resource forks are used far less commonly than on classic Mac OS systems, because of compatibility issues with other systems and historical limitations in the format. Modern macOS APIs and libraries do not use resource forks, and the legacy Carbon API that still used them has been deprecated since OS X 10.8. Despite this, even current macOS systems still use resource forks for certain purposes, such as custom file icons.
This page hosts a formal specification of Macintosh resource fork data using Kaitai Struct. This specification can be automatically translated into a variety of programming languages to get a parsing 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
See the usage examples in the JavaScript notes.
Parse structure from an ArrayBuffer:
var arrayBuffer = ...;
var data = new ResourceFork(new KaitaiStream(arrayBuffer));
After that, one can get various attributes from the structure by accessing fields or properties like:
data.header // => The resource file's header information.
data.dataBlocksWithIo // => Use `data_blocks` instead,
unless you need access to this instance's `_io`.
// This is a generated file! Please edit source .ksy file and use kaitai-struct-compiler to rebuild
