Export to ASCII tabulature

[dyha89]

Hi
Is it possible to use library to export .gp5 track to ASCII tablature like GP5 do?
I'm considering to store my tablatures on github repo, to have history, diffs, etc, but .gp5 format is binary.
So my idea was to have a script which is converting all .gp5 files to .txt ASCII tabs, to make diffs readable.

Hey @dyha89, I think it should be possible to export a .gp5 track to an ASCII tablature. However, you'll also need to implement the inverse conversion and make sure that the details don't get lost in the process.

I've taken a stab at diffing the .gp5 files, maybe it would help you https://github.com/Perlence/gpdiff.

Thanks for answer!
I have tried to use flatten(tab) on some tab, but it throws this error:
AttributeError: 'Attribute' object has no attribute 'cmp'

I'm c# guy, do I was thinking I made some mistake in my .py file, so I have decided to try this thing:
gpdiff MyTab.gp5 EmptyTab.gp5

But unfortunately it throws the same error.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/mariusz/.local/bin/gpdiff", line 8, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/home/mariusz/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gpdiff/gpdiff.py", line 15, in main sys.exit(cli(sys.argv[1:])) File "/home/mariusz/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gpdiff/gpdiff.py", line 24, in cli differ = GPDiffer(files, songs) File "<attrs generated init gpdiff.gpdiff.GPDiffer>", line 10, in __init__ File "/home/mariusz/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gpdiff/gpdiff.py", line 74, in __attrs_post_init__ self._sequences = list(map(flatten.flatten, self.songs)) File "/home/mariusz/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gpdiff/flatten.py", line 11, in flatten result.extend(flat_obj(song, expand=['pageSetup'], skip=['tracks'])) File "/home/mariusz/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/gpdiff/flatten.py", line 89, in flat_obj if not attrib.cmp:

Do you know what is the reason?

Thanks in advance!

I see, I'll add some fixes to gpdiff after I release PyGuitarPro 0.9.3.

Please reinstall gpdiff, should work.
