# Codepages for JS
[Codepages](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codepage) are character encodings. In
many contexts, single-byte character sets are used in lieu of standard multibyte
Unicode encodings. They use 256 characters with a simple mapping.
[unicode.org](http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/) hosts lists of mappings.
The build script automatically downloads and parses the mappings in order to
generate the full script. The `pages.csv` description in `codepage.md` controls
which codepages are used.
## Setup
In node:
var cptable = require('codepage');
In the browser:
<script src="cptable.js"></script>
<script src="cputils.js"></script>
Alternatively, use the full version in the dist folder:
<script src="cptable.full.js"></script>
The complete set of codepages is large due to some Double Byte Character Set
encodings. A much smaller file that just includes SBCS codepages is provided in
this repo (`sbcs.js`), as well as a file for other projects (`cpexcel.js`)
If you know which codepages you need, you can include individual scripts for
each codepage. The individual files are provided in the `bits/` directory.
For example, to include only the Mac codepages:
<script src="bits/10000.js"></script>
<script src="bits/10006.js"></script>
<script src="bits/10007.js"></script>
<script src="bits/10029.js"></script>
<script src="bits/10079.js"></script>
<script src="bits/10081.js"></script>
All of the browser scripts define and append to the `cptable` object. To rename
the object, edit the `JSVAR` shell variable in `make.sh` and run the script.
The utilities functions are contained in `cputils.js`, which assumes that the
appropriate codepage scripts were loaded.
## Usage
The codepages are indexed by number. To get the unicode character for a given
codepoint, use the `dec` property:
var unicode_cp10000_255 = cptable[10000].dec[255]; // ˇ
To get the codepoint for a given character, use the `enc` property:
var cp10000_711 = cptable[10000].enc[String.fromCharCode(711)]; // 255
There are a few utilities that deal with strings and buffers:
var 汇总 = cptable.utils.decode(936, [0xbb,0xe3,0xd7,0xdc]);
var buf = cptable.utils.encode(936, 汇总);
var sushi= cptable.utils.decode(65001, [0xf0,0x9f,0x8d,0xa3]); // 🍣
var sbuf = cptable.utils.encode(65001, sushi);
`cptable.utils.encode(CP, data, ofmt)` accepts a String or Array of characters
and returns a representation controlled by `ofmt`:
- Default output is a Buffer (or Array) of bytes (integers between 0 and 255).
- If `ofmt == 'str'`, return a String where `o.charCodeAt(i)` is the ith byte
- If `ofmt == 'arr'`, return an Array of bytes
## Known Excel Codepages
A much smaller script, including only the codepages known to be used in Excel,
is available under the name `cpexcel`. It exposes the same variable `cptable`
and is suitable as a drop-in replacement when the full codepage tables are not
needed.
In node:
var cptable = require('codepage/dist/cpexcel.full');
## Building the script
This script uses [voc](npm.im/voc). The script to build the codepage tables and
the JS source is `codepage.md`, so building is as simple as `voc codepage.md`.
## Generated Codepages
The complete list of hardcoded codepages can be found in the file `pages.csv`.
Some codepages are easier to implement algorithmically. Since these are
hardcoded in utils, there is no corresponding entry (they are "magic")

Note that MakeEncoding.cs deviates from unicode.org for some codepages. In the
case of direct conflicts, unicode.org takes precedence. In cases where the
unicode.org listing does not prescribe a value, MakeEncoding.cs value is used.
## Missing Codepages
The following codepages are not implemented. Normative references may not be
available in all cases. Furthermore, other software packages are known to hack
certain codepages (for example, Mozilla treats ASMO-708 as an alias of Arabic
ISO-8869-6 when in fact there are many differences), so all implementations
*should* be cleanroom when possible.
- 709 Arabic (ASMO-449+, BCON V4)
- 710 Arabic - Transparent Arabic
- 21027 (deprecated) <-- is this necessary?
- 50229 ISO 2022 Traditional Chinese
- 50930 EBCDIC Japanese (Katakana) Extended
- 50931 EBCDIC US-Canada and Japanese
- 50933 EBCDIC Korean Extended and Korean
- 50935 EBCDIC Simplified Chinese Extended and Simplified Chinese

- 50937 EBCDIC US-Canada and Traditional Chinese
- 50939 EBCDIC Japanese (Latin) Extended and Japanese
- 51950 EUC Traditional Chinese
