camat 0.1.8

CAMAT: tools for symbolic music parsing, analysis, and rendering.

CAMAT

CAMAT is a Python toolkit for symbolic music parsing, analysis, pattern search, and score rendering.

Supports Python 3.10+

Installation

pip install camat

What Is Included

• Parsing helpers for partitura and music21 backends.
• Pattern search and similarity utilities.
• Piano-roll and overlay visualization helpers.
• Verovio-based rendering utilities.

Parser Guidance

For common music notation, use the partitura backend as the primary parser. It is the most complete backend in CAMAT for current work: better MEI support, reliable xml_id extraction, explicit df_events output, and the strongest alignment with the rest of the parsing pipeline.

The music21 backend is kept as a legacy-compatible alternative. It can now emit df_pitch and df_events for common-notation files as well, but it should be treated as a fallback implementation rather than the default parser.
