jsxbin

Convert jsx ExtendScript files into jsxbin files using ExtendScript Toolkit (ESTK)

Example

const jsxbin = require( 'jsxbin' )

jsxbin( 'path/to/script.js', 'output/script.jsxbin' )
	.then( outputfiles => {
		console.log( 'Finished!' )
	})
	.catch( err => {
		console.error( err )
	})

(You must have ExtendScript Toolkit installed for this package to work.)

Methods

jsxbin( inputPaths, [outputPath] )

inputPaths can be:

String with path to jsx file. script.jsx
String with glob pattern that matches jsx/js files. *.jsx
Array of any of the above

outputPath, optional, can be:

String path to converted file. path/to/script.jsxbin
- Should only be used when passing only one file as inputPaths
String path to converted file directory. path/to/output
Array of string paths of names for all converted files
- Should only be used when passing an array to inputPaths. Input and output arrays must be the same length.
If not given, the files will be created in the same directory as the input file(s)

jsxbin returns a promise with an array of file paths to the converted files

Examples

// Just one file
jsxbin( 'script.jsx', 'script.jsxbin' )

// Is the same as
jsxbin( 'script.jsx' )

// Multiple files
jsxbin([ 'script1.jsx', 'script2.jsx' ], 'output/' )

// Using glob string for input, jsxbin files will be placed in 'output/' dir
jsxbin( 'src/*.jsx', 'output' )

// With no output path specified, jsxbin files will be placed in the 'src/' dir
jsxbin( 'src/*jsx' )

// As a gulp task
gulp.task( 'jsxbin', () => {
	return jsxbin( 'src/index.js', 'output/script.jsxbin' )
})
