jazz-midi-electron v2.0.1

jazz-midi-electron

MIDI for Electron

MIDI integration in Electron applications.

( see also: jazz-midi-vscode ... )

Notice: v2.x.x introduces some breaking changes,
however, upgrading old projects from v1.x.x will well worth the trouble.
You are getting:

• fewer dependencies
• improved code security
• no additional installs required

Examples

sample-midi-piano

sample-midi-player

Install

npm install jazz-midi-electron --save

Usage

( see the examples above... )

Main Process

const JZZ = require('jzz');
// jazz-midi-electron is not required if using MIDI only in the Main Process
// ...
JZZ().openMidiOut() // ...

Main Process can use JZZ.js as normal Node.js application.
It can access regular MIDI ports and create virtual ports.

Browser Window

<script src='node_modules/jazz-midi-electron/jazz-midi-electron.js'></script>
<script src='node_modules/jzz/javascript/JZZ.js'></script>
// ...
JZZ().openMidiOut() // ...

// when creating the Browser Window:
const JME = require('jazz-midi-electron');
// ...
win = new BrowserWindow({
    // ...
    webPreferences: { // see the preload.js in this repository
        preload: path.join(__dirname, 'preload.js')
    }
});
JME.init(win);
// ...

Browser Window will see all MIDI ports (including virtual) available to the Main Process.
It can create additional Web Audio and HTML-based MIDI ports (see jzz-synth-tiny and jzz-input-kbd).
