Songbook

Songbook is an application I use to generate chord tablatures i.e. tabs that include only chords and lyrics.

Unlike traditional tabs, the tabs that the app generates have their chords placed to the right of the lyrics. This makes it easy to see the chord progressions of a song.

For samples of the YAML song templates and the tabs that were generated from them, please see https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mf24yjlqzop2pds/AACJcksvXWFeAlqNEivFORNca?dl=0 and https://guitarsongs.club/user/728567.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'songbook'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install songbook

Usage

  • songbook bob-marley-three-little-birds.yml bob-marley-three-little-birds.txt
  • songbook . /tmp/songbook - Generate tabs for all of the YAML files in the present directory and save them in /tmp/songbook. Creates /tmp/songbook if it does not exist.
  • songbook /home/bob-marley-three-little-birds.yml - Same as /home/songbook bob-marley-three-little-birds.yml /home/bob-marley-three-little-birds.txt
  • songbook - Same as songbook . .

WARNING: I haven't made any attempt to make a proper implementation of the app's CLI. If for some reason, you decide to become the second user of this app, and the CLI annoys you, let me know :)

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
