Using in browser, require is not finding midi-player-js

[fornof]

<script src="node_modules/midi-player-js/browser/midiplayer.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Error: Uncaught (in promise) Error: Cannot find module 'midi-player-js'

when trying default script:

var MidiPlayer = require('midi-player-js');

// Initialize player and register event handler
var Player = new MidiPlayer.Player(function(event) {
        console.log(event);
});

// Load a MIDI file
Player.loadFile(url);
Player.play(); 

It is probably something simple I'm doing wrong.

Hi @fornof,

Thanks for the message. When using the built browser file in this library you should be able to access the global MidiPlayer class without using require().

var MidiPlayer = MidiPlayer;

Let me know if you have any issues with that.

You may also run into obstacles when using Player.loadFile() in the browser. Check out the source on the demo for a working example http://grimmdude.com/MidiPlayerJS/demo/js/app.js

I used the example and have it showing note on and note off in the console. However no notes are playing because the Soundfont /instrument is not found. Its another issue, I'll read the documentation some more and open up another issue if I cannot figure it out. Thank you so much for your help!

Yea, this library provides the player engine but no mechanism to play sounds. So, you can same sound font library this demo uses (https://github.com/danigb/soundfont-player) or any other one you wish.

Let me know if you need any help.

@fornof, noticed you re-opened this issue. Are you still have trouble?

I was going to reply, then followed your link to get notes to turn off when even off was pressed. https://github.com/danigb/soundfont-player/issues/59 It works, I just never closed/finished replying to this issue. thanks for following up!
