This includes the abcjs system on your WordPress site. To produce sheet music, put a valid ABC Notation string between the shortcodes [abcjs] and [/abcjs] on your page or post.

This also generates MIDI by using the shortcode [abcjs-midi] and can produce both visual and audio music that is coordinated with [abcjs-audio].

Thanks

Special thanks to http://www.beliefmedia.com/ for the idea to load the ABC string from a file, and for the idea to conditionally load the javascript only if there is a shortcode on the page.

\n","installation":"

Upload this folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
Click ‘Settings’ in the dashboard, then ‘ABC Notation’ to customize.

\n","faq":"\n

\nWhere can this be used?\n\n

Anywhere that shortcodes are accepted. That is, on pages, post, and widgets. It will not work on comments.

\nHow does it work?\n\n

The plugin includes the abcjs JavaScript library. The string that is put in the shortcode is passed to that library, which translates it and renders it in an SVG element that it places on the page instead of the shortcode.

\nWhat can be put in the ABC string that is placed in the shortcode?\n\n

There is much written about ABC Notation around the web. You can start here

\nWhat parameters may be used?\n\n

The shortcode can take the same parameters as abcjs. See the documentation for details.

There is also an interactive way to play with the parameters: Configurator.

Here are some examples:

To make the music responsive:
\n [abcjs engraver=\"{ responsive: 'resize' }\"] \n... some ABC string ... \n[/abcjs]

To set or override the tempo:
\n [abcjs-midi midi=\"{ qpm: 150 }\"] \n... some ABC string ... \n[/abcjs-midi]

List of parameters to the [abcjs] shortcode:

[abcjs class=\"abc-paper\"] etc... [/abcjs] puts the named class on the generated `<svg>` element.\n\n[abcjs options=\"{}\"] etc... [/abcjs] passes the javascript objects straight through to `abcjs.renderAbc`. See the abcjs documentation for details. Note that you need to put quotes around the the options parameter.\n\n[abcjs file=\"https://url/to/abc/file\"] loads the string from the specified file instead of the embedded string. You can upload this file using Add New Media or it can reside in any publicly available place.\n\n[abcjs number_of_tunes=2] if there are more than one tune in the ABC string, this specifies how many should be printed out. If this is set to more than the number of tunes in the string, that's ok, the additional places are ignored, so if you want to be sure you have all the tunes, then use a high number for this.\n

List of parameters to the [abcjs-midi] shortcode:

[abcjs-midi class=\"abc-paper\"] etc... [/abcjs-midi] puts the named class on the generated MIDI element.\n\n[abcjs-midi parser=\"{}\" midi=\"{}\"] etc... [/abcjs-midi] passes the javascript objects straight through to `abcjs.renderMidi`. See the abcjs documentation for details.\n\n[abcjs-midi file=\"https://url/to/abc/file\"] etc... [/abcjs-midi] loads the string from the specified file instead of the embedded string. You can upload this file using Add New Media or it can reside in any publicly available place.\n\n[abcjs-midi number_of_tunes=2] etc... [/abcjs-midi] if there are more than one tune in the ABC string, this specifies how many should be printed out. If this is set to more than the number of tunes in the string, that's ok, the additional places are ignored, so if you want to be sure you have all the tunes, then use a high number for this.\n

List of parameters to the [abcjs-audio] shortcode:

[abcjs-audio class-paper=\"abcjs-paper\"] etc... [/abcjs-audio] puts the named class on the generated `<svg>` element.\n\n[abcjs-audio class-audio=\"abcjs-audio\"] etc... [/abcjs-audio] puts the named class on the generated MIDI element.\n\n[abcjs-audio params=\"{}\"] etc... [/abcjs-audio] passes the javascript objects straight through to `abcjs.renderAbc` and `abcjs.renderMidi`. See the abcjs documentation for details.\n\n[abcjs-audio file=\"https://url/to/abc/file\"] etc... [/abcjs-audio] loads the string from the specified file instead of the embedded string. You can upload this file using Add New Media or it can reside in any publicly available place.\n\n[abcjs-audio number_of_tunes=2] etc... [/abcjs-audio] if there are more than one tune in the ABC string, this specifies how many should be printed out. If this is set to more than the number of tunes in the string, that's ok, the additional places are ignored, so if you want to be sure you have all the tunes, then use a high number for this.\n\n[abcjs-audio animate=\"false\"] etc... [/abcjs-audio] If true, this will cause a cursor to follow the music as it is playing.\n\n[abcjs-audio qpm=\"undefined\"] etc... [/abcjs-audio] If this is present, then it sets the beats per minute. If is not set, then the beats per minute is set by the `Q:` line in the ABC string.\n

\nHelp! Some characters are not printing properly.\n\n

Use the “shortcode block” type block in the page editor. That will help keep the quotation marks and any other interpreted characters from being changed by WordPress.

\nI can’t upload `.abc` files in the media library.\n\n

This plugin uses the upload_mimes filter to allow files with the extension .abc to be uploaded. However, there are some other plugins that can cause this to break. If you get the security warning when trying to upload a file, try disabling other plugins to see if the problem goes away. You may be able to narrow down the problem.

If you can’t easily work around that, you can change the file extension to .txt.

Choon Player is a simple audio player that supports loops and slowing down music for learning by ear. It was developed for learning Irish Traditional music. The plugin also supports the display of ABC notation as standard music notation by including Paul Rosen’s ABCJS library. That plugin has many more features than this software but was overkill for what I wanted!

The supported shortcodes are:

\n
A player for MP3 files. To display the player, put a valid URL pointing to an MP3 or M4A recording between the shortcodes [choon] and [/choon] on your page or post.
\n
\n
You can display the musical notation derived from ABC notation combined with a player. Put valid ABC notation between the shortcodes [choon-abcjs-player] and [/choon-abcjs-player] on your page or post.
\n

As an alternative to option 2 you can use a combination of the following two shortcodes.

\n
A player for ABC notation. To display the player put ABC notation between the shortcodes [choon-abc] and [/choon-abc]. This option is based on an older now unsupported library called ‘musical.js’ which may have issues in future. This is still included for now – you may want to replace any current use with [choon-abcjs-player].
\n
\n
To simply produce sheet music, put a valid ABC notation string between the shortcodes [choon-abcjs-music] and [/choon-abcjs-music] on your page or post. You can use this option in combination with [choon-abc] to show music notation on the same page.
\n
\n
If you want a simple ABC editor on your WordPress page then including the tags [choon-abcjs-editor] and [/choon-abcjs-editor] will draw a ‘textarea’ on the page where you can input ABC notation.
\n

Previous versions of this code had shortcode tags of
\n[abcjs-tools-music], [abcjs-tools-player] and [abcjs-tools-editor].
\nThese are retained for backwards compatibility but have been superceded by options 2, 4 and 5 above. Use the new codes!

Where can this be used?

Anywhere that shortcodes are accepted. Tested on pages and posts but
\nnot on widgets (using the Twenty Twenty-Three theme). Some CSS adjustment likely needed with other themes.

How does it work?

The plugin includes the Choon Player JavaScript library. The URL or ABC notation that is put in the shortcode is passed to the relevant library, which places the player on the page instead of the shortcode.

See https://lpnz.org/choon-player-overview/ for usage examples.

What can be put in the url that is placed in the [choon] shortcode?

A pointer to an MP3 file. Other audio formats supported by the HTML5 audio player should also work.

What can be put in the block of text that is placed in the [choon-abc] and [choon-abcjs-*] shortcodes?

A block of valid ABC text. See https://thesession.org for examples.

See https://abcnotation.com/wiki/abc:standard:v2.2 for a more a comprehensive description of the ABC format.

What parameters may be used?

At this stage, none!

Thanks

Special thanks to Paul Rosen for all his work on abcjs. The WordPress plugin parts of this code were based on his excellent ABC Notation plugin. Any bugs or features are all my own work!

The javascript code for the [choon] player was based on the players used on the New Zealand Irish Sessions site.
