simfile 2.1.1

Modern simfile library for Python

A modern simfile parsing & editing library for Python 3.

Full documentation can be found on Read the Docs.

Features

• Supports both SM and SSC files
  • Format-agnostic API for reading & writing simfiles
  • SM ↔︎ SSC conversion
• Timing data support
  • Beat ↔︎ song time conversion
  • Handles BPM changes, stops, delays and warps
  • Accepts "split timing" from SSC charts
• Note streams from charts
  • Algorithms for grouping jumps & hold/roll head/tail notes
  • Flexible note counting functions
  • Timing data integration
• Fully typed, documented, and tested API

Installation

simfile is available on PyPI:

pip3 install simfile

Quickstart

Load simfiles from disk using simfile.open or simfile.load:

>>> import simfile
>>> springtime = simfile.open('testdata/Springtime/Springtime.ssc')
>>> springtime
<SSCSimfile: Springtime>
>>> with open('testdata/nekonabe/nekonabe.sm', 'r') as infile:
...     nekonabe = simfile.load(infile)
...
>>> nekonabe
<SMSimfile: 猫鍋>

Use lowercase attributes to access most common properties:

>>> springtime.artist
'Kommisar'
>>> springtime.banner
'springbn.png'
>>> springtime.subtitle = '(edited)'
>>> springtime
<SSCSimfile: Springtime (edited)>

Alternatively, use uppercase strings to access the underlying dictionary:

>>> springtime['ARTIST']
'Kommisar'
>>> springtime['ARTIST'] is springtime.artist
True
>>> list(springtime.keys())[:7]
['VERSION', 'TITLE', 'SUBTITLE', 'ARTIST', 'TITLETRANSLIT', 'SUBTITLETRANSLIT', 'ARTISTTRANSLIT']

Charts are stored in a list under the .charts attribute and function similarly to simfile objects:

>>> len(springtime.charts)
9
>>> chart = springtime.charts[0]
>>> chart
<SSCChart: dance-single Challenge 12>
>>> list(chart.keys())[:7]
['CHARTNAME', 'STEPSTYPE', 'DESCRIPTION', 'CHARTSTYLE', 'DIFFICULTY', 'METER', 'RADARVALUES']

Developing

simfile uses Pipenv for dependency management. Activate the environment:

pipenv shell

To run the unit tests:

py -m unittest
