alien3456: thanks a bunch, let me know what you think.

Also, I mentioned in an earlier announcement that I wasn't accepting patches and contributions yet. I'm comfortable enough with the library design for now that if you find bugs, have feature ideas, optimizations, etc. be sure to send them my way!

A .NET lib would be sick.

...Not that I have a problem with python. Great job!

The thing I am working on now is a small command line util to dump a replay file in data formats such as JSON, XML and YAML. If no one is interested in doing the low-level bit-fiddling for .NET, this could be a not-so-bad way to get started; those formats are *way* easier to manipulate and toy around with that binary, that's for sure. I'll keep you informed!

As promised, I finished doing a small command-line utility to dump a replay file in different file formats. You can see it here: http://code.google.com/p/pyreplib/source/browse/trunk/bin/repdumper.py

It dumps in JSON, YAML and XML. I don't recommend YAML, the PyYAML library is pretty slow, doing a dump takes about 50 seconds! JSON is the fastest if you have the cjson module installed, JSON dumping with simplejson and XML dumping take approximatively the same time.

Check it out and give me some feedback!

I'm new to python and I want to try playing around with this but can't get it to work.

>>> from pyreplib import replay
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "pyreplib/replay.py", line 5, in <module>
from pyreplib import _unpack
ImportError: cannot import name _unpack

What do I have to do to get it to work? Do I have to run setup.py first?

RekcaH: Indeed, you need to run setup.py first:

$ sudo python setup.py install

You will need a C compiler, because the unpacker is written in C.

Hahah I had this exact same idea to write a bwchart-like thing in python a few months ago. Been busy though, so didn't get much done. Anyway, if you want some help reading replay files, try this code: http://bwchart.teamliquid.net/bin/bwreplib100e-withsource.zip it's from the bwchart rep library, and pretty much describes how to read every action. It may be kind of outdated though, because it's only compatible with bwchart 1.02V.

zdd: the source for bwreplib is actually included in the Subversion repository

It's not necessary to get pyreplib working, however it's damn useful to check some things that aren't clear from replay_format.txt (or not mentioned at all.)
