Universal.Common.Formats.Kiwi

Library for reading and writing the Kiwi schema-based binary serialization format (the format Figma uses for .fig files, clipboard payloads, and its live document protocol).

Kiwi is schema-driven and self-describing: a schema (its enums, structs, and messages) is itself encoded in Kiwi's own binary form, so a file can travel with the exact schema it was written against. This library decodes and encodes that binary schema, then dynamically decodes and encodes struct/message/enum data against it - there is no need to generate C# types at compile time for each schema you consume.

Quickstart

byte[] binarySchema = File.ReadAllBytes("schema.bkiwi");
KiwiSchema schema = KiwiSchema.Decode(binarySchema);

byte[] data = File.ReadAllBytes("message.bin");
KiwiObject document = schema.DecodeObject("Document", data);

string name = (string)document["name"];
object[] children = (object[])document["children"];

To construct and write your own data against a schema:

KiwiObject point = new KiwiObject("Point");
point["x"] = 1.5f;
point["y"] = -2.25f;

byte[] encoded = schema.EncodeObject("Point", point);

Verified byte-for-byte against the official evanw/kiwi reference implementation (the kiwi-schema npm package), including its own test-suite fixtures.
