JJazzLab Toolkit

All JJazzLab core and plugins in one jar, with all dependencies included.

The JJazzLab Toolkit is the "engine" that powers the JJazzLab application: object models and algorithms, without graphical user interface. It also embeds the JJazzLab plugins for music generation and FluidSynth-based audio.

For example, you can use the toolkit to :

• experiment new backing track generation algorithms
• combine JJazzLab music generation with other tools
• make a small utility to batch-convert .sng files to .mp3
• generate lots of MIDI data to train an AI model
• ...

How to use the toolkit

The JJazzLab Toolkit requires java 23 or later.

For sample code how to use the main JJazzLab features, check out the demo sub-project.

The JJazzLab Toolkit follows the same versioning than the JJazzLab application: a new version of the toolkit is released when a new version of JJazzLab is released.

With Maven

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jjazzlab.toolkit</groupId>
    <artifactId>jjazzlab-toolkit</artifactId>
    <version>5.1</version>
</dependency>

With Gradle

compile 'org.jjazzlab.toolkit:jjazzlab-toolkit:5.1'

Build

There is usually no need to build the Toolkit yourself since it is available on Sonatype Maven Central. But if you insist:

• Clone and build JJazzLab locally (mvn clean install), so that all JJazzLab core modules are available in your local Maven repository (usually $HOME/.m2)
• Clone this repo
• Run mvn clean install
