Works in Browser and Node.js server environments

Install

Usage

see examples

• Node.js

var fs = require('fs');
var parseMagicaVoxel = require('parse-magica-voxel');

fs.readFile("./chr_old.vox", function (err, Buffer) {
  if (err) throw err;
  console.log(JSON.stringify(parseMagicaVoxel(Buffer)));
});

• Browser

You will have to bundle the module with Webpack or Browserify and load the voxel file using fetch or another XMLHttpRequest utility

var parseMagicaVoxel = require('parse-magica-voxel');
var myRequest = new Request('/example/path/to/your-vox-file.vox');
fetch(myRequest).then(function(response) {
    return response.arrayBuffer();
}).then(function(buffer) {
    console.log(JSON.stringify(parseMagicaVoxel(buffer));
});
