@mlightcad/libredwg-converter

The libredwg-converter package provides a DWG file converter for the RealDWG-Web ecosystem, enabling reading and conversion of DWG files into the AutoCAD-like drawing database structure. It is based on the LibreDWG library compiled to WebAssembly.

Overview

This package implements a DWG file converter compatible with the RealDWG-Web data model. It allows you to register DWG file support in your application and convert DWG files into the in-memory drawing database.

Key Features

• DWG File Support: Read and convert DWG files to the drawing database
• Integration: Designed to work with the RealDWG-Web data model and converter manager
• WebAssembly Powered: Uses LibreDWG compiled to WASM for fast, browser-compatible parsing

Installation

npm install @mlightcad/libredwg-converter

Peer dependencies:

• @mlightcad/data-model
• @mlightcad/libredwg-web

Usage Example

import { AcDbDatabaseConverterManager, AcDbFileType } from '@mlightcad/data-model';
import { AcDbLibreDwgConverter } from '@mlightcad/libredwg-converter';

// WASM module loading (async)
import('@mlightcad/libredwg-web/wasm/libredwg-web').then(libredwgModule => {
  const dwgConverter = new AcDbLibreDwgConverter(libredwgModule);
  AcDbDatabaseConverterManager.instance.register(AcDbFileType.DWG, dwgConverter);
});
