Parse webm files into individual sections, edit the sections, and compile the file from edited sections back together
npm install @fix-webm-duration/parserParse webm files into individual sections, edit the sections,
and compile the file from edited sections back together.
Warning: it's an internal implementation package, the interfaces here can change at any moment!
Please don't use it directly in production code, only for debugging contents of webm files while developing!
Install from a package manager:
``
npm install @fix-webm-duration/parser
`typescript
import { WebmFile } from "@fix-webm-duration/parser";
const file = await WebmFile.fromBlob(blob);
`
It will return an instance of WebmFile, which is a tree of sections with IDs.WebmFile and WebmContainer are containers for other sections,WebmUint
while all other classes of webm nodes (, WebmFloat, WebmString) are the final leaves of the tree.WebmBase is the base node class that is uses for nodes with unrecognized IDs
(the map of webm nodes in the library is not full, it's only a set of nodes required to fix webm duration).
The data field of a parsed WebmContainer (or WebmFile) object
contains a list of child nodes (which could be leaves or other sections).
Use the getSectionById method to get a direct child section by ID, e.g.
`typescript`
const segmentSection: WebmContainer | null = file.getSectionById(0x8538067);
Section IDs could be found in the sections.ts file.
Use the setValue method to modify the value of nodes, e.g.
`typescript`
const durationSection = infoSection.getSectionById(0x489);
if (!durationSection) throw new Error("Duration section not found");
durationSection.setValue(60000);
Access regular array method for the data field to add or remove child nodes for a sections, e.g.
`typescript`
const durationSection = new WebmFloat("Duration");
durationSection.setValue(duration);
infoSection.data!.push({
id: 0x489,
data: durationSection,
});
Call updateByData method of all modified WebmContainer and WebmFile objects in the reverse order,WebmFile
i.e. starting from the most nested nodes, and ending with the object.
Call the toBlob method of the file to convert the parsed file to blob.file.toBlob("audio/webm")`.
Pass MIME type to it if it's not default, e.g.
