A Typescript library for reading Minecraft Anvil format files and Minecraft NBT format files in the browser.
Installation

For yarn use: yarn add mc-anvil
Usage
Importing
import { NBTParser, AnvilParser } from "mc-anvil";
Reading NBT data
The following example reads the root tag from an NBT file uploaded into the browser:
const reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = e => {
const parser = new NBTParser(e);
const tag = parser.getTag(); // receives contents of the root tag
};
reader.readAsArrayBuffer(file); // file is a File object or Blob containing NBT data
Reading Anvil data
The following example extracts a chunk from an Anvil file uploaded into the browser:
const reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = e => {
const parser = new AnvilParser(e);
const chunks = parser.getLocationEntries();
const firstNonEmptyChunk = chunks.filter(x => x.offset > 0)[0].offset;
const data = parser.getChunkData(firstNonEmptyChunk); // receives NBT data of the first chunk
const nbtParser = new NBTParser(data);
const tag = nbtParser.getTag(); // receives contents of the chunk's root NBT tag
};
reader.readAsArrayBuffer(file); // file is a File object or Blob containing Anvil data
