Adobe XD JSON Wrapper

Adobe XD is a great tool to create interactive prototypes for user experiences. Because they have just started to develop their plugin platform we often have to use some workarounds. Due to the current implementation it is not possible to just use JSON.stringify on their nodes, artboards or documents.

This library offers methods to wrap them und use JSON.stringify on them.

Available Methods

getXDWrapper

This wrapper wraps any node object on an artboard and makes it suitable for json. It also returns all parent elements.

Example

import { getXDWrapper } = "xd-json-wrapper";

const node = // use an actual node from an artboard in XD here
const wrappedNode = getXDWrapper(node);

const json = wrappedNode.toJSON();
// or
JSON.stringify(wrappedNode);

getArtboardAsJSON

This wrapper wraps any artboard object and makes it suitable for json. It als returns all children nodes.

Example

import { getArtboardAsJSON } = "xd-json-wrapper";

const artboard = // use an actual node from an artboard in XD here
const wrappedArtboard = getArtboardAsJSON(artboard);

const json = wrappedArtboard.toJSON();
// or
JSON.stringify(wrappedArtboard);

getDocumentAsJSON

This wrapper wraps the complete XD document and returns a list of all artboards and their childrend nodes.

Example

import { getDocumentAsJSON } = "xd-json-wrapper";

const documentRoot = // use an actual node from an artboard in XD here
const wrappedArtboard = getDocumentAsJSON(documentRoot);

const json = documentRoot.toJSON();
// or
JSON.stringify(documentRoot);
