How to use [lilypond]c d e[/lilypond]-lilypond at the end of the field's name,
e.g. front-lilypond or back-lilypond. The entire contents of which will be
rendered, tags not required:
c d e[lilypond][/lilypond] tags around them
in the card template. This is not recommended as music will be re-rendered every
time the card is shown.\paper{
indent=0\mm
line-width=120\mm
oddFooterMarkup=##f
oddHeaderMarkup=##f
bookTitleMarkup = ##f
scoreTitleMarkup = ##f
}
{ %ANKI% }
Where %ANKI% will be replaced with the code to be rendered.
You can add your own templates to the user_files directory in the addon's files (see Tools -> Addons -> LilyPond Integration -> View Files). You'll need to restart Anki after making any changes.
To use a template called exampleTemplate:
[lilypond=exampleTemplate]c d e[/lilypond]-exampleTemplate to the end of the field's name, e.g. front-lilypond-exampleTemplate.%ANKI%, then separate sections of code with %%% which will then be substituted in to the corresponding occurrences.
For example with the LilyPond code
c d e
%%%
f g a
the first occurrence of %ANKI% in the template will be replaced with c d e, and the second occurrence of %ANKI% with will be replaced with f g a.
Surplus occurrences of %ANKI% in the template will be left as-is (which will cause errors in LilyPond). Surplus sections of code will be ignored.
Mobile/Web support
Anki addons are desktop only, so by default, LilyPond images won't appear on other platforms since those platforms won't know what to make of a [lilypond] tag or how to treat a -lilypond field.
As a workaround you can use LilyPond fields and for each field create another field with the same name but ending with -lilypondimg. The desktop addon will replace the contents of this field with the rendered image. You can then use this field in your notes.
For example, if your field is front-lilypond, with content c d e, create the field front-lilypondimg and use the front-lilypondimg field in your card template wherever you want the rendered music to appear. As long as you create your cards on desktop so that the plugin can generate the image this image will then be visable on all platforms.
Note that the contents of the -lilypondimg field will be overwritten so don't put anything important in there.Add sheet music snippets to your Anki deck, wrapped in [lilypond][/lilypond] tags.

Wrap inline LilyPond code in tags:
[lilypond]c d e[/lilypond]
Create fields for LilyPond code with -lilypond at the end of the field's name,
e.g. front-lilypond or back-lilypond. The entire contents of which will be
rendered, tags not required:
c d e
Create fields for LilyPond code and put [lilypond][/lilypond] tags around them
in the card template. This is not recommended as music will be re-rendered every
time the card is shown.
Please refer to the LilyPond homepage and documentation for details on how to write LilyPond code.
The styling of LilyPond output is controlled by templates. The default template looks like this:
\paper{
indent=0\mm
line-width=120\mm
oddFooterMarkup=##f
oddHeaderMarkup=##f
bookTitleMarkup = ##f
scoreTitleMarkup = ##f
}
{ %ANKI% }
Where %ANKI% will be replaced with the code to be rendered.
You can add your own templates to the user_files directory in the addon's files
(see Tools -> Addons -> LilyPond Integration -> View Files). You'll need to restart
Anki after making any changes.
Also note that if you want to use LilyPond's \include directive you'll need to
provide to full path to the file.
To use a template called exampleTemplate:
[lilypond=exampleTemplate]c d e[/lilypond]
-exampleTemplate to the end of the field's name, e.g.
front-lilypond-exampleTemplate.You can create a template with multiple occurrences of %ANKI%, then separate sections
of code with %%% which will then be substituted in to the corresponding occurrences.
For example with the LilyPond code
c d e
%%%
f g a
the first occurrence of %ANKI% in the template will be replaced with c d e, and
the second occurrence of %ANKI% with will be replaced with f g a.
Surplus occurrences of %ANKI% in the template will be left as-is (which will cause
errors in LilyPond). Surplus sections of code will be ignored.
