Parse Styles File

Description

“Parse Styles File” is a layer styles utility script using the JSON Action Manager scripting library, and more specifically its module jamStyles.

This stand-alone script written in JavaScript is used to parse a Photoshop styles file (.asl) or a styles palette (Styles.psp) into a JSON text file. It provides basic information about the embedded patterns associated with the set of styles, and makes use of the following simplified formats:

From a technical point of view, it shows how to take advantage of the method ActionDescriptor.fromStream to decode flattened (serialized) versions of ActionDescriptor objects saved in a file.

Example

Parsed styles file (Abstract Styles.asl):

Abstract Styles.json

Requirements

This script can be used in Adobe Photoshop CS3 or later. It has been successfully tested in CS4 on Mac OS X, but should be platform agnostic.
