Command Line Interface

Syntax

Note that any argument beginning with the @ character is considered as the name of a text file to be immediately expended in situ (the text file is assumed to contain one argument per line).

CLI syntax is displayed as follows when the -help argument is present:

Arguments

These are the standard arguments that are listed when the help option is used. They are presented here in alphabetical order.

-batch

Launches Audiveris without any Graphic User Interface.

-export

Exports each book music as a MusicXML file.

-force

Forces reprocessing even if target step has already been reached.
This option is effective only when a target step is specified (see the -step option) or the -transcribe option is present.

-help

Displays the arguments summary as printed above, then exits.

-option KEY=VALUE

Specifies the value of one application option, KEY being the qualified name of the option, VALUE being the value to assign.

This is the CLI equivalent of the GUI pulldown menu Tools | Options.

-output DIRNAME

Defines the path to the default base output folder.

This output folder will be the parent of any subfolder created according to an input file name.

-print

Exports each book music as a PDF file.

-save

Saves each book OMR data to its .omr project file as soon as a sheet step is processed successfully.

This option is effective only in -batch mode.

-sheets N M X-Y

Specifies the IDs of sheets to process.

IDs are specified as a space-separated sequence of numbers (a sheet ID starts at 1).
Also, the X-Y notation is accepted, to refer to all IDs between X and Y included. Mind the fact that X-Y must be one argument, with no space around the - character.

This option is meant to initially open the book on a specific sheet, or to restrict processing to some sheets. If no sheet IDs are specified, all (valid) sheets are concerned.

Sheet IDs apply to all books referenced on the command line.

-step STEPNAME

Specifies a sheet target step.

This target step will be reached on every sheet referenced from the command line. This means all valid sheets if no explicit sheet numbers are specified.

For any given sheet, if the target step has already been reached, no further processing is done.
However, if the -force option is present, this sheet will be reset to BINARY and then processed again to the target step.

-transcribe

Transcribes each book.

--

This argument is not a real argument per se, but merely a delimiter so that each following argument in the command line is taken as an input file path (even if this argument begins with a - character).

FILENAME

Path to one input file.

If the file name extension is .omr, the file is an Audiveris project file which will be used as input / output.

For any other extension, the file is considered as an image input file.

Advanced Arguments

These arguments are made available for the advanced user.

-annotate

For each book, populates a Zip archive with images and symbol annotations derived from book Inter instances.

These annotations are meant to populate a dataset for training future Audiveris 6.x new classifiers (Page and/or Patch).

-sample

Populates each book sample repository with samples derived from the book Inter instances.

A book-level repository can be later merged into the global Audiveris sample repository in order to prepare a training of Audiveris 5.x Glyph classifier.

-run CLASS_NAME

Runs the specified Java class on each valid sheet.

CLASS_NAME must be the fully qualified name of a Java class, which must extend the abstract class org.audiveris.omr.step.RunClass and override its process() method:

public abstract class RunClass
{
    protected Book book;
    protected SortedSet<Integer> sheetIds;
    /**
     * Creates a new {@code RunClass} object.
     *
     * @param book     the book to process
     * @param sheetIds specific sheet IDs if any
     */
    public RunClass (Book book,
                     SortedSet<Integer> sheetIds)
    {
        this.book = book;
        this.sheetIds = sheetIds;
    }
    /**
     * The processing to be done.
     */
    public abstract void process ();
}
