@suaveplan/audio-decode-wav - Universal WAV decoder wrapper over @audio/decode-wav. Exposes decodeWav, createWavStreamDecoder, frozen DecodedAudio, AbortSignal propagation, AUDIO_DECODE.WAV.* error codes, and a full OpenTelemetry surface.

Universal WAV decoder wrapper over the upstream @audio/decode-wav library. Exposes a stable, OTel-instrumented, AbortSignal-honouring contract over a frozen, validated DecodedAudio shape that every sibling codec wrapper (audio-decode-mp3, audio-decode-flac, audio-decode-opus, …) will reuse. The package is part of the audio-decode-* family and

Install

bun add @suaveplan/audio-decode-wav

Quick start

import { decodeWav } from "@suaveplan/audio-decode-wav";

const audio = await decodeWav(wavBytes);
console.log(audio.channels, audio.sampleRate, audio.durationSec);

Stream a WAV from an HTTP response:

import { createWavStreamDecoder } from "@suaveplan/audio-decode-wav";

const dec = createWavStreamDecoder();
const reader = response.body!.getReader();
try {
    for (;;) {
        const { done, value } = await reader.read();
        if (done) break;
        await dec.feed(value);
    }
    const audio = await dec.flush();
} finally {
    dec.free();
}

Features

Whole-buffer decode via decodeWav(bytes, options?).
Chunked decode via createWavStreamDecoder(options?).
Seven error codes: AUDIO_DECODE.WAV.INVALID_INPUT, UNSUPPORTED_FORMAT, CORRUPT_HEADER, TRUNCATED_BODY, ABORTED, RESAMPLE_UNSUPPORTED, STREAM_INVARIANT_VIOLATION.
Full OpenTelemetry surface — audio_decode_wav.bytes_in_total, audio_decode_wav.frames_out_total, audio_decode_wav.errors_total{code}, audio_decode_wav.op_duration_ms{op, outcome}, plus spans on the @suaveplan/audio-decode-wav tracer.
AbortSignal propagation, including pre-aborted short-circuit.
Zod-validated DecodedAudio + AudioDecodeOptions schemas.
Header pre-scan distinguishes corrupt vs. truncated vs. unsupported inputs before invoking upstream.

Modules

decode-wav — whole-buffer decoder.
stream — chunked streaming decoder.
error-codes — code registry + AudioDecodeWavError.
otel — telemetry surface (tracer, meter, counters, histogram).
types/decoded-audio — frozen DecodedAudio type + schema.
types/options — AudioDecodeOptions type + schema.
utils/inspect — pure-JS WAV header pre-scan.

Out of scope

Resampling — surfaced as RESAMPLE_UNSUPPORTED; a future @suaveplan/audio-resample will pair with this package.
Non-WAV formats — sibling audio-decode-{mp3,flac,opus,…} packages each wrap their own upstream decoder behind the same contract.
Format dispatching — owned by the upcoming @suaveplan/audio-decode umbrella package.
