| | """Simple class to read IFF chunks. |
| | |
| | An IFF chunk (used in formats such as AIFF, TIFF, RMFF (RealMedia File |
| | Format)) has the following structure: |
| | |
| | +----------------+ |
| | | ID (4 bytes) | |
| | +----------------+ |
| | | size (4 bytes) | |
| | +----------------+ |
| | | data | |
| | | ... | |
| | +----------------+ |
| | |
| | The ID is a 4-byte string which identifies the type of chunk. |
| | |
| | The size field (a 32-bit value, encoded using big-endian byte order) |
| | gives the size of the whole chunk, including the 8-byte header. |
| | |
| | Usually an IFF-type file consists of one or more chunks. The proposed |
| | usage of the Chunk class defined here is to instantiate an instance at |
| | the start of each chunk and read from the instance until it reaches |
| | the end, after which a new instance can be instantiated. At the end |
| | of the file, creating a new instance will fail with an EOFError |
| | exception. |
| | |
| | Usage: |
| | while True: |
| | try: |
| | chunk = Chunk(file) |
| | except EOFError: |
| | break |
| | chunktype = chunk.getname() |
| | while True: |
| | data = chunk.read(nbytes) |
| | if not data: |
| | pass |
| | # do something with data |
| | |
| | The interface is file-like. The implemented methods are: |
| | read, close, seek, tell, isatty. |
| | Extra methods are: skip() (called by close, skips to the end of the chunk), |
| | getname() (returns the name (ID) of the chunk) |
| | |
| | The __init__ method has one required argument, a file-like object |
| | (including a chunk instance), and one optional argument, a flag which |
| | specifies whether or not chunks are aligned on 2-byte boundaries. The |
| | default is 1, i.e. aligned. |
