xd-crossword-tools
xd is a text-based crossword format which is easy for humans to read and reason about.
This repo provides tools for taking different crossword file formats and converting them to xd. Then has a comprehensive xd to JSON function. Mostly conforms to the v2 xd spec, and comes with a few editor-experience extensions for a REPL-like environment. Uses a vendored copy of 'puzjs' which was ported to TypeScript.
Runs in node, browsers, React Native and edge runtimes.
Documentation for authoring in xd
.xd to .JSON
import { xdToJSON } from "xd-crossword-tools"
const xd = "[...]"
const crossword = xdToJSON(xd)The JSON format is a bit more verbose than you might expect (see below for an example), but the goal is to have as much information pre-computed at parse time in order to save lookups later at runtime. You should use crossword.report to determine the parsing's success. You can see the type definitions here: ./lib/types.ts.
.puz to .xd
Builds on puzjs (ISC license). The puz format is generally what tools and websites will give you as an output format.
import { puzToXD } from "xd-crossword-tools"
const puzResponse = await fetch(url)
const puzBuffer = await res.arrayBuffer()
const xd = puzToXD(puzBuffer)This API should cover most features in puz and xd.
UClick .xml to .xd
import { uclickXMLToXd } from "xd-crossword-tools"
const xmlResponse = await fetch(url)
const xmlString = await res.body()
const xd = uclickXMLToXd(xmlString).xd to .puz
We don't support all of .puz features, but this library can generate a JSON object which can then be used @confuzzle/writepuz to generate a .puz file as a buffer which you can write to a file in node, or offer as a download on the web.
import { JSONToPuzJSON } from "xd-crossword-tools"
import { writepuz } from "@confuzzle/writepuz"
const xd = "[...]"
const writeJSON = JSONToPuzJSON(xd)
const puzBuffer = writepuz(writeJSON)Editor Support
You can opt-in to more information from the parser, and lint warnings, by passing true as the third argument to xdToJSON.
Triggering this will:
- Turn on the linter for your code editor, which will give you warnings about your crossword based on pretty universally useful rules.
- Add section metadata in the return value's
editorInfoproperty - Add line numbers to the metadata section of the puzzle
- Add line numbers to clues/hints/other in the metadata section of each clue
This library includes editorInfoAtCursor which can get some information about what's under the cursor at { line, index }.
import { xdToJSON, editorInfoAtCursor } from "xd-crossword-tools"
const xd = "[...]"
const editorSupport = true
const crossword = xdToJSON(xd, true, editorSupport)
const info = editorInfoAtCursor(crossword)
const cursorInfo = info(0, 0)Which returns a union of different results, you can check the types + tests to see what's available, but it's something like this:
export type PositionInfo =
| { type: "noop" }
| { type: "grid"; position: Position }
| { type: "clue"; direction: CursorDirection; number: number }
| ...xd Diffing
This library includes a diffing function which can take two xd strings and return a list of changes. This is useful for version control, and for building a diffing UI.
import { diffXD } from "xd-crossword-tools"
const diff = diffXD(xd1, xd2)Example
Let's take this free .puz: https://dehodson.github.io/crossword-puzzles/crosswords/alpha-bits/
Their .puz file turns into this xd:
