Usage

<script src="https://git.coolaj86.com/coolaj86/asn1-parser.js/raw/branch/master/asn1-parser.js"></script>
'use strict';

var ASN1 = window.ASN1  // 62 lines
var Enc = window.Enc    // 27 lines
var PEM = window.PEM    //  6 lines

var pem = [ '-----BEGIN EC PRIVATE KEY-----'
          + 'MHcCAQEEIImMnaNu2jRjvQwVFnhhDw/KDYtS2Q6n8T5kJYniwY1UoAoGCCqGSM49'
          + 'AwEHoUQDQgAEIT1SWLxsacPiE5Z16jkopAn8/+85rMjgyCokrnjDft6Y/YnA4A50'
          + 'yZe7CnFsqeDcpnPbubP6cpYiVcnevNIYyg=='
          + '-----END EC PRIVATE KEY-----'
          ].join('\n');

var der = PEM.parseBlock(pem).der;
var json = ASN1.parse(der);

console.log(json);
{ "type": 48 /*0x30*/, "lengthSize": 0, "length": 89
, "children": [
    { "type": 48 /*0x30*/, "lengthSize": 0, "length": 19
		, "children": [
        { "type": 6, "lengthSize": 0, "length": 7, "value": "<0x2a8648ce3d0201>" },
        { "type": 6, "lengthSize": 0, "length": 8, "value": "<0x2a8648ce3d030107>" }
      ]
    },
    { "type": 3, "lengthSize": 0, "length": 66,
      "value": "<0x04213d5258bc6c69c3e2139675ea3928a409fcffef39acc8e0c82a24ae78c37ede98fd89c0e00e74c997bb0a716ca9e0dca673dbb9b3fa72962255c9debcd218ca>"
    }
  ]
}

Note: value will be a Uint8Array, not a hex string.

Optimistic Parsing

This is a dumbed-down, minimal ASN1 parser (though quite clever in its simplicity).

There are some ASN.1 types (at least Bit String and Octet String, possibly others) that can be treated either as primitive values or as container types base on the schema being used.

Rather than incorporating knowledge of each possible x509 schema, this parser will return values for types that are always values, it recurse on types that are always containers and, for ambigiuous types, it will first try to recurse and, on error, will fall back to returning a value.

In theory, it is possible that it will produce false positives, but that would be highly unlikely in real-world scenarios (PEM, x509, PKCS#1, SEC1, PKCS#8, SPKI, PKIX, CSR, etc).

I'd be interested to hear if you encounter such a case.

Zero Dependencies

A little copying is better than a little dependency - Golang Proverbs by Rob Pike

Rather than requiring hundreds (or thousands) of lines of dependencies, this library takes the approach of including from other libraries in its suite to produce a small, focused file that does exactly what it needs to do.
