Binary Property List Parser
JSON →bplist-parser is a JavaScript library designed to parse Apple's binary Property List (.bplist) files. These files are a compact, binary representation often used by macOS and iOS for storing structured data, as an alternative to XML plists. The current stable version is 0.3.2, which was last published to npm approximately four years ago, indicating a very slow or effectively halted release cadence. While the GitHub repository shows some minimal activity related to ESM conversion more recently, the published npm package remains CommonJS-centric. The package includes TypeScript type definitions. Its key differentiator is its singular focus on parsing binary plists, without support for XML or OpenStep plist formats, making it suitable for applications specifically dealing with this file type, though users should be aware of its infrequent updates.
