asn1js

asn1js is a JavaScript generic ASN.1 parser/decoder that can decode any valid ASN.1 DER or BER structures.

An example page that can decode Base64-encoded (raw base64, PEM armoring and begin-base64 are recognized) or Hex-encoded (or local files with some browsers) is included and can be used both online on the official website or offline (ZIP file).

Usage with nodejs

This package can be installed with either npm or yarn via the following commands:

npm install @lapo/asn1js
# or other tools
pnpm install @lapo/asn1js
yarn add @lapo/asn1js

You can import the classes like this:

import { ASN1 } from '@lapo/asn1js';

A submodule of this package can also be imported:

import { Hex } from '@lapo/asn1js/hex.js';

If your code is still not using ES6 Modules (and is using CommonJS) you can require it normally since NodeJS 22 (with parameter --experimental-require-module):

const
  { ASN1 } = require('@lapo/asn1js'),
  { Hex } = require('@lapo/asn1js/hex.js');
console.log(ASN1.decode(Hex.decode('06032B6570')).content());

On older NodeJS you instead need to use async import:

async function main() {
  const
    { ASN1 } = await import('@lapo/asn1js'),
    { Hex } = await import('@lapo/asn1js/hex.js');
  console.log(ASN1.decode(Hex.decode('06032B6570')).content());
}
main();

Usage on the web

Can be tested on JSFiddle.

<script>
import { ASN1 } from 'https://unpkg.com/@lapo/[email protected]/asn1.js';
import { Hex } from 'https://unpkg.com/@lapo/[email protected]/hex.js';

document.body.innerText = ASN1.decode(Hex.decode('06032B6570')).content();
</script>

Local usage

Since unfortunately ESM modules are not working on file: protocol due to CORS issues, there is a bundled single-file version working locally. It doesn't work online (due to CSP restrictions about inline content) but can be saved locally and opened in a browser. (known bug: dark mode is currently broken in this mode)

Usage from CLI

You can dump an ASN.1 structure from the command line using the following command (no need to even install it):

npx @lapo/asn1js ed25519.cer
