Python module
=============
Installing aubio with pip
-------------------------
.. code-block:: bash
    $ pip install aubio
Building the module
-------------------
From ``aubio`` source directory, run the following:
.. code-block:: bash
    $ ./setup.py clean
    $ ./setup.py build
    $ sudo ./setup.py install
Using aubio in python
---------------------
Once you have python-aubio installed, you should be able to run ``python -c
"import aubio"``.
A very simple example
.....................
Here is a very simple script
to read all the samples from a media file:
.. code-block:: python
        #! /usr/bin/env python
        import aubio
        s = aubio.source(sys.argv[1], 0, 256)
        while True:
          samples, read = s()
          #print(samples)
          if read < 256: break
Filtering an input sound file
.............................
Here is a more complete example, `demo_filter.py`_. This files executes the following:
* read an input media file (``aubio.source``)
* filter it using an A-weighting filter (``aubio.digital_filter``)
* write result to a new file (``aubio.sink``)
.. literalinclude:: ../python/demos/demo_filter.py
   :language: python
