SWF translator

An attempt to emulate SWF in HTML5 environment. WebGL2 is required.

Usage

Requirement:

  • NodeJS >= 12

Build source code:

yarn install
yarn build

Translate SWF tags:

node packages/swf-translator/dist/index.js build-swf <path to swf> <output directory>

Translate AS3 source code:

node packages/swf-translator/dist/index.js build-as3 <AS3 source directory> <output directory>

Assembly required to run the output, some hints:

  • Alias swf-lib in output source code to the compiled swf-lib package.
  • Bundle character definition JSON: JSON.stringify the variable bundle in character index.js.
  • Construct asset manifest: 
    {
  "data": "data",
  "properties": {}, // embed properties.json
  "assets": {
    "data": {
      "url": "./data.json", // path to bundled character definition JSON
      "size": 0, // zero if no need of progress report
    },
    "character1": {
      "url": "./character1.png",
      "size": 0,
    }
    // etc.
  }
}
  • Start the SWF: 
    import lib from "swf-lib";
const manifest = { /* ... */ };
const library = await lib.__internal.loadManifest(manifest);
const stage = new lib.flash.display.Stage(library.properties);
stage.__withContext(() => stage.addChild(library.instantiateCharacter(0)))();
document.body.appendChild(stage.__canvas.container);
