This projects implements parsers for various file formats can be found in Nintendo games. It has been written to support research, and it is also used in a viewer tool.
Installation
This package can be installed with pip3 install jungle-package.
Python 3.13 or later is required.
Testing
Every parser that is implemented in this package must be sound and complete. This means that, given an arbitrary file from a Nintendo game, decoding and reencoding that file must always produce the original file again.
This can be tricky to implement for some file formats (especially if Nintendo's tooling is inconsistent or has quirks), but it is a hard requirement for this repository. A test.py script has been written to verify this. If you come across a file in a game that should be supported by this repository, but fails the test, feel free to reach out on discord or contribute research.
