c2patool-npm

A Node.js wrapper for the c2patool executable.

Installation

npm install c2patool-npm

Prerequisites

Before installing this package, you need to have the c2patool executable for your platform. Place the appropriate executable in the following directory structure:

vendor/
  ├── darwin-x64/c2patool     # For macOS Intel
  ├── darwin-arm64/c2patool   # For macOS Apple Silicon
  ├── linux-x64/c2patool      # For Linux x64
  └── win32-x64/c2patool.exe  # For Windows x64

To make it easier to place the c2patool binary in the correct location, you can use the included setup script:

npm run setup

This script will:

1. Detect your platform and architecture
2. Ask for the path to your c2patool binary
3. Copy the binary to the correct location in the vendor directory
4. Make the binary executable (if needed)

Usage

Command Line

Once installed, you can use the c2patool command directly:

c2patool [arguments]

Programmatic Usage

You can also use the package programmatically:

const { spawnSync } = require('child_process');
const c2patoolPath = require('c2patool-npm');

// Run c2patool with arguments
const result = spawnSync(c2patoolPath, ['arg1', 'arg2'], { 
  stdio: 'inherit',
  encoding: 'utf-8'
});

console.log(`Exit code: ${result.status}`);
