StormJS is [StormLib](http://www.zezula.net/en/mpq/stormlib.html) for Javascript, powered by
[Emscripten](http://emscripten.org).

## Usage

To install StormJS:

```sh
npm install @ldcv/stormjs
```

To use StormJS in an ES2015 module environment:

```js
import { FS, MPQ } from '@ldcv/stormjs';

// Mount the local filesystem path /home/stormjs/example as /stormjs
// This approach is suitable for cases where StormJS is running under Node
FS.mkdir('/stormjs');
FS.mount(FS.filesystems.NODEFS, { root: '/home/stormjs/example' }, '/stormjs');

const mpq = await MPQ.open('/stormjs/example.mpq', 'r');
const file = mpq.openFile('example.txt');
const data = file.read();

// Clean up
file.close();
mpq.close();
```

To use StormJS in browser:

```js
const { MPQ } = require('@ldcv/stormjs');

// Fetch MPQ file from the server
const mpqBuffer = await fetch("path/to/your.mpq").then(res => res.arrayBuffer());

// Read uploaded MPQ file from file input
const fileReader = new FileReader();
const mpqBufferInput = await new Promise(resolve => {
    fileReader.onload = evt => resolve(evt.target.result);
    fileReader.readAsArrayBuffer( document.querySelector("input[type='file']").files[0] );
});

const mpq = await MPQ.fromArrayBuffer(mpqBuffer);
const file = mpq.openFile('example.txt');
const data = file.read();

// Clean up
file.close();
mpq.close();
```

Then pack the script using a packaging tool, such as Browserify:

```bash
browserify -o bundle.js your-script.js
```

Note that StormJS loads in production mode if `process.env.NODE_ENV` is set to `production`. In all other cases, StormJS loads in debug mode.

For production mode in browsers, you may exclude the debug library `--exclude node_modules/@ldcv/stormjs/dist/stormlib.debug.js` from the packaging tool to reduce bundled script size.

## API Reference

Please refer to [API.md](https://github.com/LDConval/stormjs/blob/master/API.md).

## Compatibility

StormJS is tested against Node 10, 12, and 14; also tested in Chrome 92.

Additionally, StormJS should work well in other browsers with support for WASM. Note that use in browsers will require configuring an Emscripten filesystem type appropriate for the browser.

## Development

Development of StormJS requires git, CMake, and an Emscripten environment.

[emsdk](https://github.com/juj/emsdk) is the simplest way to get an Emscripten environment up and running.

StormJS is currently built using Emscripten 1.39.15.

After cloning the StormJS repo, ensure all submodules are also pulled down from remote by running:

```sh
git submodule update --init --recursive
```

To build StormJS after making changes locally, run:

```sh
npm run build
```

The test suites for StormJS can be run using:

```sh
npm run test
```
