portable-executable

parse portable-executable files

example

parse a portable executable and dump to json.

var fs = require('fs')
var PE = require('portable-executable')

var pe = PE.PortableExecutable(fs.readFileSync(YOUR_FILE_EXE))

console.log(JSON.stringify(pe))

portable executable is a interesting, complex format.

example output may resemble:
