subtitle-convert
Subtitle converter from traditional subtitles.
It automatically detects file encoding and easily convert to other file encoding with different subtitle type.
eg.) SMI(EUC-KR) -> WEBVTT(UTF-8)
At 0.2.0, it only supports SMI and VTT only. Please check Future Works section.
Install
> npm install --save subtitle-convert
// or
> yarn add subtitle-convert
Usage
Node
// In node.js,
// in ES Style..
import Converter from 'subtitle-convert';
// in Common Style..
const Converter = require('subtitle-convert').default;
// Default initialize and load files.
const smi2vtt = new Converter();
smi2vtt.load(filePath);
/* Or you may write specific encoding of input and output.
In this case, converter automatically parse extension so you don't have to set
extname to file extension obviously unless you're going to change it. So, */
const smi2vtt = new Converter(filePath, extname, inputEncoding, outputEncoding);
// or just null.
const smi2vtt = new Converter(filePath, null, inputEncoding, outputEncoding);
// These two case of initialization step, converter automatically calls load function.
// Parse from raw file.
smi2vtt.parse();
// You may add delay(seconds) to each cue separately.
smi2vtt.delay(delayTime, cueIndex);
// You can set range of delay like below -
smi2vtt.delay(delayTime, cueIndex, cueIndexEnd);
// If you set cueIndexEnd to -1, converter automatically interpretes to last index of cue list.
smi2vtt.delay(delayTime, cueIndex, -1);
// Or add delay to entire cueList.
smi2vtt.delay(delayTime);
// These two statements are equivalent :
smi2vtt.delay(-12.3); // 12.3 seconds faster.
smi2vtt.delay('-12.3'); // 12.3 seconds faster too.
// You may resize instead of delay. It just resizes endTime of cue. Usage of .resize is very similar to .delay.
// Actually, .resize(...args) is equivalent to .delay(...args, true).
smi2vtt.resize(delayTime); // equivalent to .delay(delayTime, null, null, true).
smi2vtt.resize(delayTime, cueIndex); // equivalent to .delay(delayTime, cueIndex, null, true).
smi2vtt.resize(delayTime, cueIndex, cueIndexEnd); // equivalent to .delay(delayTime, cueIndex, cueIndexEnd, true).
/* Convert parsed data to chosen type.
Then parser will create an new file in destination with specific encoding.
At 0.2.0, only VTT supported.
Both two cases, result variable get result of conversion if succeed or get false. */
const result = smi2vtt.convert('.vtt', outputFilePath);
// Without saving file.
const result = smi2vtt.convert('.vtt');
Browser
// In browser,
// All of methods are same, but you should set string that contains subtitle details
// instead of filepath.
const smi2vtt = new Converter(textofSubtitle);
// You may push TextTrackCueList array to converter to modify track cue list.
smi2vtt.apply(cueList); // cueList overwritten to converter's cue list.
// You may skip to call parse method if you need only just conversion.
const result = smi2vtt.convert('.vtt');

Tips
When you using vtt files with Chrome browser you may confused because they won't support vtt inline css style.
In this module, convert function automatically supports for css hack with WEBVTT comment(called NOTE) like below-
WEBVTT
NOTE
STYLE_START
/* For not-supported browser only.
Paste this part to head style using xhr. */
video::cue(.style0) {
color: #A4A0A0;
}
video::cue(.style1) {
color: #F8B203;
}
video::cue(.style2) {
color: #8BC3FF;
}
video::cue(.style3) {
color: #ff3939;
}
/* End of inner css. */
STYLE_END
STYLE
::cue(.style0) {
color: #A4A0A0;
}
...
You may use to parse these parts to put in your own head style to apply subtitle style in Chrome.
