plist.js ======== ### Apple's Property list parser/builder for Node.js and browsers [![ci](https://github.com/TooTallNate/plist.js/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/TooTallNate/plist.js/actions/workflows/ci.yml) Provides facilities for reading and writing Plist (property list) files. These are often used in programming OS X and iOS applications, as well as the iTunes configuration XML file. Plist files represent stored programming "object"s. They are very similar to JSON. A valid Plist file is representable as a native JavaScript Object and vice-versa. ## Usage ### Node.js Install using `npm`: ``` bash $ npm install --save plist ``` Then `require()` the _plist_ module in your file: ``` js var plist = require('plist'); // now use the `parse()` and `build()` functions var val = plist.parse('Hello World!'); console.log(val); // "Hello World!" ``` ### Browser Include the `dist/plist.js` in a ` ``` ## API ### Parsing Parsing a plist from filename: ``` javascript var fs = require('fs'); var plist = require('plist'); var obj = plist.parse(fs.readFileSync('myPlist.plist', 'utf8')); console.log(JSON.stringify(obj)); ``` Parsing a plist from string payload: ``` javascript var plist = require('plist'); var xml = '' + '' + '' + 'metadata' + '' + 'bundle-identifier' + 'com.company.app' + 'bundle-version' + '0.1.1' + 'kind' + 'software' + 'title' + 'AppName' + '' + ''; console.log(plist.parse(xml)); // [ // "metadata", // { // "bundle-identifier": "com.company.app", // "bundle-version": "0.1.1", // "kind": "software", // "title": "AppName" // } // ] ``` ### Building Given an existing JavaScript Object, you can turn it into an XML document that complies with the plist DTD: ``` javascript var plist = require('plist'); var json = [ "metadata", { "bundle-identifier": "com.company.app", "bundle-version": "0.1.1", "kind": "software", "title": "AppName" } ]; console.log(plist.build(json)); // // // // metadata // // bundle-identifier // com.company.app // bundle-version // 0.1.1 // kind // software // title // AppName // // ``` ## Cross Platform Testing Credits Much thanks to Sauce Labs for providing free resources that enable cross-browser testing on this project!
