Project available in github at https://github.com/fab77/FITSParser#readme
Library used to handle FITS files as defined in the "Definition of the Flexible Image Transport System (FITS)" document defined by internation Astronomical Union (IAU)
This library is capable to read and write FITS files where the data are represented in the following formats (BITPIX):
8 Character or unsigned binary integer 16 16-bit two’s complement binary integer 32 32-bit two’s complement binary integer 64 64-bit two’s complement binary integer −32 IEEE single-precision floating point −64 IEEE double-precision floating point
Only ImageHDU are supported at the moment.
jsFITS I/O can be used as standalone Node module or integrated in the browser.
$ npm install jsfitio
Download the file "jfitsio.js" and include it in your web page as below:
First compile the code:
$ node start:dev
To test jsfitsio in node:
$ node test/test01.js
$ node test/test02.js
import { FITSParser } from 'jsfitio';
const fileuri = "http://skies.esac.esa.int/Herschel/normalized/PACS_hips160//Norder8/Dir40000/Npix47180.fits";
const fp = new FITSParser(fileuri);
const promise = fp.loadFITS();
promise.then(function (fits) {
if (fits !== null) {
console.log(fits === null || fits === void 0 ? void 0 : fits.header);
console.log(`BITPIX: ${fits.header.get('BITPIX')}`);
console.log(`NAXIS1: ${fits.header.get('NAXIS1')}`);
console.log(`NAXIS2: ${fits.header.get('NAXIS2')}`);
console.log(`payload bytes length ${fits.data.length * fits.data[0].length}`);
}
else {
console.log("Empty data");
}
});
import { FITSParser } from 'jsfitio';
import { FITSHeader } from 'jsfitio';
import { FITSWriter } from 'jsfitio';
import { writeFITS } from 'jsfitio'
import { FITSHeaderItem } from 'jsfitio';
const fileuri: string = "./test/inputs/x0c70103t_c1f.fits";
const fp = new FITSParser(fileuri);
const fitsPromise = fp.loadFITS();
fitsPromise.then( (fitsProcessed) => {
let fitsHeader = fitsProcessed.header;
let fitsData = fitsProcessed.data;
let fw = new FITSWriter();
fw.run(fits.header, fits.data);
writeFITS("./MyFITS.fits", fw._fitsData);
});
You need to include "jsfitsio.js" (take it from _bundles directory in git the repo https://github.com/fab77/FITSParser ) file in your HTML page. Below a sample.

let promise = fp.loadFITS();
promise.then( (fits) => {
if (fits !== null) {

console.log(blobUrl);
