Tool and library for manipulating LilyPond files

Project description

HomepageDevelopmentDownloadDocumentationLicense

The quickly python package is slated to become the successor of python-ly.

It is currently in a very early development stage.

Like python-ly, it will provide tools to manipulate LilyPond music documents, but instead of using the lexer in python-ly, which is very difficult to maintain, it will use the new parce package for parsing LilyPond files.

ly.dom and ly.music will be superseded by quickly.dom which provides a way to both build a LilyPond source file from scratch (like ly.dom) and manipulate an existing document (like ly.music). It is also expected that much of the functionality that is currently implemented at the token level, like transposing and rhythm manipulations, can be rewritten to work on the musical representation provided by quickly.dom, which will look a lot like ly.music.

This module is written and maintained by Wilbert Berendsen, and will, as it grows, also contain (adapted) code from python-ly that was contributed by others. Python 3.6 and higher is supported. Besides Python itself the most recent version of the parce module is needed. Testing is done by running pytest-3 in the root directory.
