@mbakereth/ldapjs-asn1

@mbakereth/ldapjs-asn1 is a library for encoding and decoding ASN.1 datatypes in pure JS. Currently BER encoding is supported.

Decoding

The following reads an ASN.1 sequence with a boolean.

1const { BerReader, BerTypes } = require('@mbakereth/ldapjs-asn1')
2const reader = new BerReader(Buffer.from([0x30, 0x03, 0x01, 0x01, 0xff]))
3
4reader.readSequence()
5console.log('Sequence len: ' + reader.length)
6if (reader.peek() === BerTypes.Boolean)
7console.log(reader.readBoolean())

Encoding

The following generates the same payload as above.

1const { BerWriter } = require('@mbakereth/ldapjs-asn1');
2const writer = new BerWriter();
3
4writer.startSequence();
5writer.writeBoolean(true);
6writer.endSequence();
7
8console.log(writer.buffer);

Installation

1npm install @mbakereth/ldapjs-asn1
