AEffect

AEffect is a tool to generate effect subtitles (.ass) files for JavaScript programmers.

This project is now under development.

Getting Started

Installation

npm install aeffect

Compatibility

Because that functions related to rendering are based on Win32 API, AEffect can only support Windows platform now.

Importing to your script

const AEffect = require("aeffect");

Examples

Adding blur effect to all dialogs with "Default" style

    let AE = new AEffect();
    AE.loadFromFile("path_to_your_ass_file");
    AE.select({
        "style": "Default"
    }).addEffect([
        new Blur(2)
    ])

    console.log(AE.build());

Syllables fade in

import * as Effects from 'aeffect/effects';

AE.loadFromFile("path_to_file");

// 选择所有 Default 样式的字幕行
let allDialogs = AE.select({
    styleName: "Default"
});
// 按音节分割为行，新起始时间为原音节开始时间，新结束时间为原行结束时间
allDialogs.splitIntoSyllables('SyllableStart', 'LineEnd')
    .forEach((dialog) => {
        // 初始blur20 在音节时间内变为blur0
        dialog.addEffect([
            new Effects.Blur(20),
            new Effects.Animation(dialog.lineStart, dialog.lineStart + dialog.syllableDuration, new Effects.Blur(0))
        ]);
    });
// 注释原字幕
allDialogs.commentOriginalDialogs();

console.log(AE.build())

More examples and complete API documentation will be available soon.
