As a musician in a show (such as musical or revue) you want to have your sheet music and cues as easily accessible as possible. This repo enables you to combine several PDFs into one big PDF with additional annotations such as cues, tempo and patch information.
You need to install the Javascript and Typescript runtime Deno.
On macOS I recommend you to download this tool with Homebrew:
brew install denoLook at the official installation instructions on deno.land.
You need to organize the musical pieces in this folder structure:
path_to_songs
├── type_name1
│ ├── song1
│ │ ├── song1_bass.pdf
│ │ ├── song1_drums.pdf
│ │ └── song1_gitar.pdf
│ └── song2
│ └── ...
└── type_name2
├── musical_song_1
│ └── ...
└── musical_song_2
└── ...
And create the cues and order of the songs with the same structure as this template.
Download the Google Sheet file as a .tsv file.
Now you can run the run the script to create the combined PDF:
deno run --unstable --allow-read --allow-write https://raw.githubusercontent.com/greenbech/pdf-show-combiner/main/mod.ts --performer performer1 --tsv path_to_tsv.tsv --folder path_to_songsThe combined file will be called <performer>.pdf.
