kn0ll / midi.io Goto Github PK

Hi there, awesome concept. I'm pretty new to Node.js, so apologies if this is a common occurrence when using NPM.

I went ahead and installed all of the dependencies via NPM (Socket.io, Backbone, Underscore, and Midi), and proceeded to install midi.io. I received this output:

I noticed that it seems to be looking for an earlier version of Node, but I'm not really sure what the issue is here. Any insight?

Thank you!

Can / Does this library support sending midi messages as well - such as turning on lights on a controller, etc.

Hey again,

So I took a really long break from Node, and now I'm back doing this. I'm planning on making some sort of a web-app/instrument hybrid, not really sure what yet), and I'd like to do so using Express. I'm having an issue using this with the express() function that is new in Express 3 - here's my code:

/**
 * Module dependencies.
 */

var express = require('express')
  , routes = require('./routes')
  , user = require('./routes/user')
  , http = require('http')
  , path = require('path');

var app = express();

app.configure(function(){
  app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 3000);
  app.set('views', __dirname + '/views');
  app.set('view engine', 'jade');
  app.use(express.favicon());
  app.use(express.logger('dev'));
  app.use(express.bodyParser());
  app.use(express.methodOverride());
  app.use(express.cookieParser('your secret here'));
  app.use(express.session());
  app.use(app.router);
  app.use(require('less-middleware')({ src: __dirname + '/public' }));
  app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
});

app.configure('development', function(){
  app.use(express.errorHandler());
});

app.get('/', routes.index);
app.get('/users', user.list);

server = http.createServer(app);

var midi = require('midi.io'),
    io = require('socket.io').listen(server);

server.use(midi(io));

server.listen(app);

The error I'm getting is "Object # has no method 'use'"
I'm assuming that this is because the http server I've created can't instantiate middleware or that use is something inherent in connect or express, but I'm totally lost on where I should be calling midi now that I have to wrap the express components in an http object.

Any guidance would be super helpful. Thanks!!
