Parser for Tiled Editor JSON

Documentation

Usage

Cargo.toml

[dependencies]
tiled-json-rs = "0.1.0"

Load from a file

let map = tiled::Map::load_from_file(PathBuf::from("assets/test.json"))
            .expect("Failed to load map");

Iterating over a tileset

for tileset in &map.tile_sets {
    let name = tileset.name.clone();
    let mut path = PathBuf::from("assets");
    path.push(tileset.image.clone());
    // Do stuff
}

Iterating over layers

fn render_layers(
        layers: &Vec<Layer>,
    ) {
    for layer in layers {
        match &layer.layer_type {
            tiled::LayerType::TileLayer(tiles) => {
                do_something(tiles);
            }
            tiled::LayerType::Group { layers } => {
                &mut render_layers(layers);
            }
            tiled::LayerType::ImageLayer(image) => {
                do_something_else(image);
            }
            tiled::LayerType::ObjectGroup(objects) => {
                and_another_thing(objects);
            }
        }
    }
}

render_layers(&map.layers);

Notes:

• GID for tiles starts at 1 with 0 reserved for empty tile
• Local Id starts at 0 for TileSet, and only applies to TileSet
• The tileset must be included in the JSON (this is temporary until parsing the path is done)
• Doc comments are only provided where clarification may be useful. In general things should be named well enough that intention is self-describing.
