Installation

Using pip:

pip install sphinxcontrib-lilypond

Functionalities

• A lily role to include a standalone music markup. For example, a G clef can be inserted by:

  :lily:`\musicglyph #"clefs.G"`

  The purpose of the 'lily' role is writing music comments or learning notes. So only one markup is allowed.

• A lily directive to include a score, for example:

  .. lily::
  
     \relative c'' {
       c4 a d c
     }

Settings

The lilypond_fontsize variable can be used to set the font size:

lilypond_fontsize = [6, -3]

• The first value is for lily role setting in absolute font size.
• The second value is for lily directive setting in relative font size.

Default settings:

lilypond_preamble = ''
lilypond_fontsize = [10, -3]
lilypond_command = 'lilypond'
lilypond_args = []
