# music-beat-detector

**music-beat-detector** is a library that analyzes a music stream and detects any beat. It can be used to control lights or any magic effect by the music wave.

Bundled with this library there are three components:
- `MusicBeatDetector` is able to analyze any PCM 16bit Little Endian audio stream. It detects music peaks and realtime bpm.
- `MusicBeatScheduler` is able to sync any detected peak with the listened audio. It's useful to control some lights or any other effect.
- `MusicGraph` generates an SVG graph that displays every detected peak. It's useful to tune the peak detection.

## Example
```javascript
const fs = require('fs')
const Speaker = require('speaker')
const createMusicStream = require('create-music-stream') //read this https://github.com/chrvadala/create-music-stream#faq
const {MusicBeatDetector, MusicBeatScheduler, MusicGraph} = require('music-beat-detector')

const musicSource = process.argv[2] //get the first argument on cli

const musicGraph = new MusicGraph()

const musicBeatScheduler = new MusicBeatScheduler(pos => {
console.log(`peak at ${pos}ms`) // your music effect goes here
})

const musicBeatDetector = new MusicBeatDetector({
plotter: musicGraph.getPlotter(),
scheduler: musicBeatScheduler.getScheduler(),
})

createMusicStream(musicSource)
.pipe(musicBeatDetector.getAnalyzer())
.on('peak-detected', (pos, bpm) => console.log(`peak-detected at ${pos}ms, detected bpm ${bpm}`))
.on('end', () => {
fs.writeFileSync('graph.svg', musicGraph.getSVG())
console.log('end')
})

.pipe(new Speaker())
.on('open', () => musicBeatScheduler.start())
```
### Usage
You can play any music sound supported by the library [create-music-stream](https://github.com/chrvadala/create-music-stream).
*Note: The beat detection performs better on mp3 files than YouTube video.*
```javascript
node example.js ./track.mp3
node example.js https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeMFqkcPYcg
node example.js https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi_XLOBDo_Y

```

## Reference

### `new MusicBeatDetector(options)`
|Param |Default |Description|
|---------------------|-------------------|-----------|
|options.sensitivity | 0.6 | Response to the music wave (value from 0.5 to 1) |
|options.plotter | - | Instance of `MusicGraph` |
|options.scheduler | - | Instance of `MusicBeatScheduler` |
|options.minThreashold | 1638 | Peaks under this level are ignored (usually they're noise) |
|options.debugFilter | false | Stream the filtered music throught the lowpass filter (for debug purpose) |

- `getAnalyzer()` - Returns a transformer stream that analyze the music

### `new MusicBeatScheduler(effectCallback)`
- `getScheduler()` - returns an instance used by `MusicBeatDetector`
- `start()` - start effects (usually controlled by speaker events)

### `new MusicGraph(secondWidth, secondHeight)`
- `getPlotter()` - returns an instance used by `MusicBeatDetector`
- `getSVG()` - returns a string with the SVG that displays the analyzed music
