Storing the MusicXML in for each measure separately

[Taylor Akin]

Hello all,

I would like to put the musicXML for each measure into a data structure so that I can ask for a measure and display it with OpenSheetMusicDisplay in the browser given a parsed music21 score. To be a little more concrete, is there a way to do the following?

score = music21.converter.parse(path_name)

measure_list = score['measure']

complete_xml = []

for measure in measure_list:

       event = {}

       event['measure'] = measure.measureNumber

       event['musicxml'] = measure.m21toMusicXML

       complete_xml.append(event)

# then make it a JSON object and pass it to the browser

If you have any suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate it! Also, if you have any other suggestions for the flow of storing the data and how to display it in the browser that you think might be helpful, please do share!

Thank you,

Taylor

Hi Taylor. I think you need to spend some more time with the music21 user’s guide. Everything you want to do is explained there. Music21 is not a tool for manipulating MusicXML or any other representation directly. 

Best,

Michael

I've done that with the OMSD library itself. Among the options for display there is a startmeasure and endmeasure or something like that.

The problem is that slurs, ties, and many other elements that start in the previous measure do not show.
