Accessors

guid

• get guid(): UuidWrapper

Gets the GUID that identifies the current instance.

Returns

UuidWrapper

Inherited from

BaseObject.guid

---

isEmpty

• get isEmpty(): boolean

Gets whether the current instance contains any records.

Returns

boolean

true if the current instance does not contain any records, false otherwise.

---

objectType

• get objectType(): AsfObjectType

Gets the type of the object for easy comparison.

Returns

AsfObjectType

Overrides

BaseObject.objectType

---

originalSize

• get originalSize(): number

Gets the original size of the current instance.

Returns

number

Inherited from

BaseObject.originalSize

---

records

• get records(): AsfMetadataDescriptor[]

Gets all records stored in the current instance.

Returns

AsfMetadataDescriptor[]

Methods

addRecord

▸ addRecord(record): void

Adds a record to the current instance.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
record	AsfMetadataDescriptor	Record to add to the current instance

Returns

void

---

getRecords

▸ getRecords(languageListIndex, streamNumber, ...names): AsfMetadataDescriptor[]

Gets all records with a given language, stream, and any of a collection of names from the current instance.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
languageListIndex	number	Index of the desired language in the language list
streamNumber	number	Index of the stream in the file the desired records applies to
...names	string[]	List of names of the records to return

Returns

AsfMetadataDescriptor[]

---

initializeFromFile

▸ Protected initializeFromFile(file, position): void

Initializes a new instance by reading the contents from a specified position in a specified file.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
file	File	File which contains the details of the new instance to create
position	number	Position in file where the object begins

Returns

void

Inherited from

AsfBaseObject.initializeFromFile

---

initializeFromGuid

▸ Protected initializeFromGuid(guid): void

Initializes a new instance with a specified GUID.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
guid	UuidWrapper	GUID to use for the new instance.

Returns

void

Inherited from

AsfBaseObject.initializeFromGuid

---

removeRecords

▸ removeRecords(languageListIndex, streamNumber, name): void

Removes all records with a given language, stream, and name from the current instance.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
languageListIndex	number	Language list index of the records to be removed
streamNumber	number	Index of the stream in the file the desired records to remove
name	string	Name of the records to remove

Returns

void

---

render

▸ render(): ByteVector

Renders the current instance as a raw ASF object.

Returns

ByteVector

Overrides

AsfBaseObject.render

---

renderInternal

▸ Protected renderInternal(data): ByteVector

Renders the current instance as a raw ASF object containing the specified data.

Remarks

Child classes implementing () should render their contents and then send the data through this method to produce the final output.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
data	ByteVector	Data to store in the rendered version of the current instance.

Returns

ByteVector

Inherited from

AsfBaseObject.renderInternal

---

setRecords

▸ setRecords(languageListIndex, streamNumber, name, ...records): void

Sets a collection of records for a given language, language, ane name, removing the existing records that match.

Remarks

All added entries in records should match the provided languageListIndex, streamNumber, and name, but this will not be verified by the method. The records will be added with their own values and not those provided in the method arguments. The arguments are only used for removing existing values and determining where to position the new records.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
languageListIndex	number	Index of the desired language in the language list
streamNumber	number	Index of the stream in the file the desired records applies to
name	string	Names of the records to remove
...records	AsfMetadataDescriptor[]	Records to insert into the current instance

Returns

void

---

fromEmpty

▸ Static fromEmpty(): AsfMetadataLibraryObject

Constructs and initializes a new instance that does not contain any records.

Returns

AsfMetadataLibraryObject

---

fromFile

▸ Static fromFile(file, position): AsfMetadataLibraryObject

Constructs and initializes a new instance by reading the object from a file.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
file	File	File to read the instance from
position	number	Offset into the file where the object begins

Returns

AsfMetadataLibraryObject
