mingus.midi.midi_file_in

Read a MIDI file and convert it into mingus.containers objects.

class mingus.midi.midi_file_in.FormatError

args

Attribute of type: getset_descriptor <attribute 'args' of 'exceptions.BaseException' objects>

message

Attribute of type: getset_descriptor <attribute 'message' of 'exceptions.BaseException' objects>

class mingus.midi.midi_file_in.HeaderError

args

Attribute of type: getset_descriptor <attribute 'args' of 'exceptions.BaseException' objects>

message

Attribute of type: getset_descriptor <attribute 'message' of 'exceptions.BaseException' objects>

class mingus.midi.midi_file_in.MidiFile

MIDI_to_Composition(self, file)

bpm

Attribute of type: int 120

bytes_read

Attribute of type: int 0

bytes_to_int(self, bytes)

meter

Attribute of type: tuple (4, 4)

parse_midi_event(self, fp)

Parse a MIDI event.

Return a dictionary and the number of bytes read.

parse_midi_file(self, file)

Parse a MIDI file.

Return the header -as a tuple containing respectively the MIDI format, the number of tracks and the time division-, the parsed track data and the number of bytes read.

parse_midi_file_header(self, fp)

Read the header of a MIDI file and return a tuple containing the format type, number of tracks and parsed time division information.

parse_time_division(self, bytes)

Parse the time division found in the header of a MIDI file and return a dictionary with the boolean fps set to indicate whether to use frames per second or ticks per beat.

If fps is True, the values SMPTE_frames and clock_ticks will also be set. If fps is False, ticks_per_beat will hold the value.

parse_track(self, fp)

Parse a MIDI track from its header to its events.

Return a list of events and the number of bytes that were read.

parse_track_header(self, fp)

Return the size of the track chunk.

parse_varbyte_as_int(self, fp, return_bytes_read=True)

Read a variable length byte from the file and return the corresponding integer.

class mingus.midi.midi_file_in.TimeDivisionError

args

Attribute of type: getset_descriptor <attribute 'args' of 'exceptions.BaseException' objects>

message

Attribute of type: getset_descriptor <attribute 'message' of 'exceptions.BaseException' objects>

mingus.midi.midi_file_in.MIDI_to_Composition(file)

Convert a MIDI file to a mingus.containers.Composition and return it in a tuple with the last used tempo in beats per minute (this will change in the future).

This function can raise all kinds of exceptions (IOError, HeaderError, TimeDivisionError, FormatError), so be sure to try and catch.
