swt2ctx

Convert a Swiss-Chess Tournament (SWT) file into a valid Chess Tournament Exchange Format (CTX) file.

Installation

Simply install the package and its command line interface via npm:

npm install swt2ctx

Usage

The most comfortable way to convert SWT files is to use the command line interface:

swt2ctx < /my/tournament.SWT

There are multiple options to format the output, see swt2ctx --help for further information.

You can also use swt2ctx programmatically:

var convert = require('swt2ctx');
convert('/my/tournament.SWT', 
  { indent: 2, pretty: true, newline: '\n' }, 
  function handleXML(err, xml) {
    // do whatever you want
  });

Supported SWT versions

Because this module uses the swtparser module, it supports the file versions provided by those module. Currently only tournaments of SWT version 8.xx can be parsed.

Todo

Add individual pairings in /tournament/pairings for Individual Tournaments
Add individual, initial ranking in /tournament/rankings/initial for Individual Tournaments
Parse round dates for /tournament/pairings/round/information
