## Usage

```js

var WIM = require( 'wim' )

```

### Read a WIM header

```js

var image = new WIM.Image()

image.open( 'sources.wim', function( error ) {

  if( error ) return handleError( error )

  image.readHeader( function( error, header ) {

    console.log( header )

  })

})

```

```js

Header {

  imageTag: 'MSWIM\u0000\u0000\u0000',

  size: 208,

  version: 68864,

  flags: 262274,

  compressedSize: 32768,

  guid: ,

  partNumber: 1,

  partCount: 1,

  imageCount: 2,

  offsetTable: FileHeader {

     size: 461850,

     flags: 2,

     offset: 307668199,

     originalSize: 461850

  },

  xmlData: FileHeader {

    size: 3824,

    flags: 2,

    offset: 308130049,

    originalSize: 3824

  },

  bootMetadata: FileHeader {

     size: 920042,

     flags: 6,

     offset: 306748157,

     originalSize: 4555704

  },

  bootIndex: 2,

  integrity: FileHeader {

    size: 0,

    flags: 0,

    offset: 0,

    originalSize: 0

  },

  reserved: 

}

```

### CLI Usage

```

npx wim wimfile -h|-x|-m

  dump wimfile header, xml data or metadata

```

### CLI - read version from windows installation ISO 

ISO mount on filesystem is Linux-specific here.

```

mount win10.iso /mnt/win10/ -o loop

npx wim /mnt/win10/sources/install.wim -x | npx --package @toycode/xml2json-cli xml2json | jq -r .WIM.IMAGE[0].WINDOWS[0].SERVICINGDATA[0].PKEYCONFIGVERSION[0]

```

You get `10.0.19041.1202;2016-01-01T00:00:00Z` for instance.
