parseck2 v1.0.4

parseck2

Parse a Crusader Kings II save game file into a JSON object.

parseck2 will parse an uncompressed Crusader Kings II save game file into a usable JSON object with the game data. Save game files can be quite large. The resulting JSON is slightly larger still, so parsing and transforming this data does take a bit of time, on the order of a few minutes.

I owe a great deal to Chris Kjær's ck2parser project, as well as PEG.js, which generated the script that first parses the save game file to JSON. This first pass is a bit rough, so this package also uses a transformer to make the JSON more useful.

Installation

You can install with npm:

$ npm install parseck2 --save

How to Use

To use parseck2 in your own scripts, first require it:

To compile your native addon, first go to its root directory:

var ck2parse = require('ck2parse');

Then call it as a function, passing the path of the file you'd like to parse as a parameter. It will return the JSON object.

var data = ck2parse("/path/to/ck2/autosave.ck2");
