Collections

Lilv has several collection types for holding various types of value:

Each collection type supports a similar basic API (except LilvPlugins which is internal and thus lacks a free function):

  • void PREFIX_free (coll)
  • unsigned PREFIX_size (coll)
  • LilvIter* PREFIX_begin (coll)

World

The "world" represents all Lilv state, and is used to discover/load/cache LV2 data (plugins, UIs, and extensions). Normal hosts which just need to load plugins by URI should simply use lilv_world_load_all() to discover/load the system's LV2 resources.

◆ LILV_OPTION_DYN_MANIFEST

#define LILV_OPTION_DYN_MANIFEST   "http://drobilla.net/ns/lilv#dyn-manifest"

Enable/disable dynamic manifest support. Dynamic manifest data will only be loaded if this option is true.

◆ LILV_OPTION_FILTER_LANG

#define LILV_OPTION_FILTER_LANG   "http://drobilla.net/ns/lilv#filter-lang"

Enable/disable language filtering. Language filtering applies to any functions that return (a) value(s). With filtering enabled, Lilv will automatically return the best value(s) for the current LANG. With filtering disabled, all matching values will be returned regardless of language tag. Filtering is enabled by default.

Function Documentation

◆ lilv_file_uri_parse()

LILV_API char * lilv_file_uri_parse ( const char * uri,
char ** hostname )

Convert a file URI string to a local path string. For example, "file://foo/bar%20one/baz.ttl" returns "/foo/bar one/baz.ttl". Return value must be freed by caller with lilv_free().

Parameters
uriThe file URI to parse.
hostnameIf non-NULL, set to the hostname in the URI, if any.
Returns
uri converted to a path, or NULL on failure (URI is not local).

◆ lilv_free()

LILV_API void lilv_free ( void * ptr)

Free memory allocated by Lilv.

This function exists because some systems require memory allocated by a library to be freed by code in the same library. It is otherwise equivalent to the standard C free() function.

◆ lilv_instance_activate()

void lilv_instance_activate ( LilvInstance * instance)
inlinestatic

Activate a plugin instance. This resets all state information in the plugin, except for port data locations (as set by lilv_instance_connect_port()). This MUST be called before calling lilv_instance_run().

◆ lilv_instance_connect_port()

void lilv_instance_connect_port ( LilvInstance * instance,
uint32_t port_index,
void * data_location )
inlinestatic

Connect a port to a data location. This may be called regardless of whether the plugin is activated, activation and deactivation does not destroy port connections.

◆ lilv_instance_deactivate()

void lilv_instance_deactivate ( LilvInstance * instance)
inlinestatic

Deactivate a plugin instance. Note that to run the plugin after this you must activate it, which will reset all state information (except port connections).

◆ lilv_instance_free()

LILV_API void lilv_instance_free ( LilvInstance * instance)

Free a plugin instance. It is safe to call this function on NULL. instance is invalid after this call.

◆ lilv_instance_get_descriptor()

const LV2_Descriptor * lilv_instance_get_descriptor ( const LilvInstance * instance)
inlinestatic

Get the LV2_Descriptor of the plugin instance. Normally hosts should not need to access the LV2_Descriptor directly, use the lilv_instance_* functions.

The returned descriptor is shared and must not be deleted.

◆ lilv_instance_get_extension_data()

const void * lilv_instance_get_extension_data ( const LilvInstance * instance,
const char * uri )
inlinestatic

Get extension data from the plugin instance. The type and semantics of the data returned is specific to the particular extension, though in all cases it is shared and must not be deleted.

◆ lilv_instance_get_handle()

LV2_Handle lilv_instance_get_handle ( const LilvInstance * instance)
inlinestatic

Get the LV2_Handle of the plugin instance. Normally hosts should not need to access the LV2_Handle directly, use the lilv_instance_* functions.

The returned handle is shared and must not be deleted.

◆ lilv_instance_get_uri()

const char * lilv_instance_get_uri ( const LilvInstance * instance)
inlinestatic

Get the URI of the plugin which instance is an instance of. Returned string is shared and must not be modified or deleted.

◆ lilv_instance_run()

void lilv_instance_run ( LilvInstance * instance,

LILV_API LilvNodes * lilv_plugin_get_related ( const LilvPlugin * plugin,
const LilvNode * type )

Get the resources related to plugin with lv2:appliesTo.

Some plugin-related resources are not linked directly to the plugin with rdfs:seeAlso and thus will not be automatically loaded along with the plugin data (usually for performance reasons). All such resources of the given type related to plugin can be accessed with this function.

If type is NULL, all such resources will be returned, regardless of type.

To actually load the data for each returned resource, use lilv_world_load_resource().

◆ lilv_plugin_get_required_features()

LILV_API LilvNodes * lilv_plugin_get_required_features ( const LilvPlugin * p)

Get the LV2 Features required by a plugin. If a feature is required by a plugin, hosts MUST NOT use the plugin if they do not understand (or are unable to support) that feature.

All values returned here MUST be passed to the plugin's instantiate method (along with data, if necessary, as defined by the feature specification) or plugin instantiation will fail.

◆ lilv_plugin_get_supported_features()

LILV_API LilvNodes * lilv_plugin_get_supported_features ( const LilvPlugin * p)

Get the LV2 Features supported (required or optionally) by a plugin. A feature is "supported" by a plugin if it is required OR optional.

Since required features have special rules the host must obey, this function probably shouldn't be used by normal hosts. Using lilv_plugin_get_optional_features() and lilv_plugin_get_required_features() separately is best in most cases.

The URI is a globally unique identifier for one specific plugin. Two plugins with the same URI are compatible in port signature, and should be guaranteed to work in a compatible and consistent way. If a plugin is upgraded in an incompatible way (eg if it has different ports), it MUST have a different URI than it's predecessor.

Returns
A shared URI value which must not be modified or freed.

LILV_API bool lilv_plugin_has_latency ( const LilvPlugin * p)

Return whether or not the plugin introduces (and reports) latency. The index of the latency port can be found with lilv_plugin_get_latency_port() ONLY if this function returns true.

◆ lilv_plugin_instantiate()

LILV_API LilvInstance * lilv_plugin_instantiate ( const LilvPlugin * plugin,
double sample_rate,
const LV2_Feature *const * features )

Instantiate a plugin. The returned value is a lightweight handle for an LV2 plugin instance, it does not refer to plugin, or any other Lilv state. The caller must eventually free it with lilv_instance_free(). features is a NULL-terminated array of features the host supports. NULL may be passed if the host supports no additional features.

Returns
NULL if instantiation failed.

◆ lilv_plugin_is_replaced()

LILV_API bool lilv_plugin_is_replaced ( const LilvPlugin * plugin)

◆ lilv_port_get_name()

LILV_API LilvNode * lilv_port_get_name ( const LilvPlugin * plugin,
const LilvPort * port )

Get the name of a port. This is guaranteed to return the untranslated name (the doap:name in the data file without a language tag). Returned value must be freed by the caller.

LILV_API LilvScalePoints * lilv_port_get_scale_points ( const LilvPlugin * plugin,
const LilvPort * port )

Get the scale points (enumeration values) of a port. This returns a collection of 'interesting' named values of a port (e.g. appropriate entries for a UI selector associated with this port). Returned value may be NULL if port has no scale points, otherwise it must be freed by caller with lilv_scale_points_free().

Get the scale points (enumeration values) of a port.

This returns a collection of 'interesting' named values of a port, which for example might be appropriate entries for a value selector in a UI.

Returned value may be NULL if port has no scale points, otherwise it must be freed by caller with lilv_scale_points_free().

◆ lilv_port_get_symbol()

LILV_API const LilvNode * lilv_port_get_symbol ( const LilvPlugin * plugin,

LILV_API bool lilv_port_is_a ( const LilvPlugin * plugin,
const LilvPort * port,
const LilvNode * port_class )

Determine if a port is of a given class (input, output, audio, etc). For convenience/performance/extensibility reasons, hosts are expected to create a LilvNode for each port class they "care about". Well-known type URI strings are defined (e.g. LILV_URI_INPUT_PORT) for convenience, but this function is designed so that Lilv is usable with any port types without requiring explicit support in Lilv.

mapURID mapper.
subjectThe subject of the state description (e.g. a preset URI).
pathThe path of the file containing the state description.
Returns
A new LilvState which must be freed with lilv_state_free().

If subject is NULL, it is taken to be the URI of the file (i.e. "<>" in Turtle).

This function parses the file separately to create the state, it does not parse the file into the world model, i.e. the returned state is the only new memory consumed once this function returns.

◆ lilv_state_new_from_instance()

LILV_API LilvState * lilv_state_new_from_instance ( const LilvPlugin * plugin,
LilvInstance * instance,
LV2_URID_Map * map,
const char * file_dir,
const char * copy_dir,
const char * link_dir,
const char * save_dir,
LilvGetPortValueFunc get_value,
void * user_data,
uint32_t flags,
const LV2_Feature *const * features )

Create a new state snapshot from a plugin instance.

Parameters
pluginThe plugin this state applies to.
instanceAn instance of plugin.
mapThe map to use for mapping URIs in state.
file_dirDirectory of files created by the plugin earlier (or NULL). This is for hosts that support file creation at any time with state state:makePath. These files will be copied as necessary to copy_dir and not be referred to directly in state (a temporary directory is appropriate).
copy_dirDirectory of copies of files in file_dir (or NULL). This directory will have the same structure as file_dir but with possibly modified file names to distinguish different revisions. If you only care about saving one state snapshot, it can be the same as save_dir. Plugin state will refer to files in this directory.
save_dirDirectory of files created by plugin during save (or NULL). If the state will be saved, this should be the bundle directory later passed to lilv_state_save().
get_valueFunction to get port values (or NULL). If NULL, the returned state will not represent port values. This should only be NULL in hosts that save and restore port values via some other mechanism.
user_dataUser data to pass to get_value.
link_dirDirectory of links to external files (or NULL). A link will be made in this directory to any external files referred to in plugin state. In turn, links will be created in the save directory to these links (e.g. save_dir/file => link_dir/file => /foo/bar/file). This allows many state snapshots to share a single link to an external file, so archival (e.g. with tar -h) will not create several copies of the file. If this is not required, it can be the same as save_dir.
flagsBitwise OR of LV2_State_Flags values.
featuresFeatures to pass LV2_State_Interface.save().
Returns
A new LilvState which must be freed with lilv_state_free().

This function may be called simultaneously with any instance function (except discovery functions) unless the threading class of that function explicitly disallows this.

To support advanced file functionality, there are several directory parameters. Simple hosts that only wish to save a single plugins state once may simply use the same directory for all of them (or pass NULL to not support files at all). The multiple parameters are necessary to support saving an instances state many times while avoiding any duplication of data.

If supported (via state:makePath passed to LV2_Descriptor::instantiate()), file_dir should be the directory where any files created by the plugin (not during save time, e.g. during instantiation) are stored. These files will be copied to preserve their state at this time.plugin-created files are stored. Lilv will assume any files within this directory (recursively) are created by the plugin and all other files are immutable. Note that this function does not save the state, use lilv_state_save() for that.

See state.h from the LV2 State extension for details on the flags and features parameters.

Create a new state snapshot from a plugin instance.

This function may be called simultaneously with any instance function (except discovery functions) unless the threading class of that function explicitly disallows this.

To support advanced file functionality, there are several directory parameters. The multiple parameters are necessary to support saving an instance's state many times, or saving states from multiple instances, while avoiding any duplication of data. For example, a host could pass the same copy_dir and link_dir for all plugins in a session (for example session/shared/copy/ session/shared/link/), while the save_dir would be unique to each plugin instance (for example session/states/state1.lv2 for one instance and session/states/state2.lv2 for another instance). Simple hosts that only wish to save a single plugin's state once may simply use the same directory for all of them, or pass NULL to not support files at all.

If supported (via state:makePath passed to LV2_Descriptor::instantiate()), scratch_dir should be the directory where any files created by the plugin (for example during instantiation or while running) are stored. Any files here that are referred to in the state will be copied to preserve their contents at the time of the save. Lilv will assume any files within this directory (recursively) are created by the plugin and that all other files are immutable. Note that this function does not completely save the state, use lilv_state_save() for that.

See state.h from the LV2 State extension for details on the flags and features parameters.

Parameters
pluginThe plugin this state applies to.
instanceAn instance of plugin.
mapThe map to use for mapping URIs in state.
scratch_dirDirectory of files created by the plugin earlier, or NULL. This is for hosts that support file creation at any time with state state:makePath. These files will be copied as necessary to copy_dir and not be referred to directly in state (a temporary directory is appropriate).
copy_dirDirectory of copies of files in scratch_dir, or NULL. This directory will have the same structure as scratch_dir but with possibly modified file names to distinguish revisions. This allows the saved state to contain the exact contents of the scratch file at save time, so that the state is not ruined if the file is later modified (for example, by the plugin continuing to record). This can be the same as save_dir to create a copy in the state bundle, but can also be a separate directory which allows multiple state snapshots to share a single copy if the file has not changed.
link_dirDirectory of links to external files, or NULL. A link will be made in this directory to any external files referred to in plugin state. In turn, links will be created in the save directory to these links (like save_dir/file => link_dir/file => /foo/bar/file). This allows many state snapshots to share a single link to an external file, so archival (for example, with tar -h) will not create several copies of the file. If this is not required, it can be the same as save_dir.
save_dirDirectory of files created by plugin during save (or NULL). This is typically the bundle directory later passed to lilv_state_save().
get_valueFunction to get port values (or NULL). If NULL, the returned state will not represent port values. This should only be NULL in hosts that save and restore port values via some other mechanism.
user_dataUser data to pass to get_value.
flagsBitwise OR of LV2_State_Flags values.
featuresFeatures to pass LV2_State_Interface.save().
Returns
A new LilvState which must be freed with lilv_state_free().

◆ lilv_state_new_from_string()

LILV_API LilvState * lilv_state_new_from_string ( LilvWorld * world,

const LilvNode * subject )

Load a state snapshot from the world RDF model. This function can be used to load the default state of a plugin by passing the plugin URI as the subject parameter.

Parameters
worldThe world.
mapURID mapper.
subjectThe subject of the state description (e.g. a preset URI).
Returns
A new LilvState which must be freed with lilv_state_free(), or NULL.

◆ lilv_state_restore()

LILV_API void lilv_state_restore ( const LilvState * state,
const LV2_State_Interface * iface,
LV2_Handle handle,
LilvSetPortValueFunc set_value,
void * user_data,
uint32_t flags,
const LV2_Feature *const * features )

Restore a plugin instance from a state snapshot.

Parameters
StateThe state to restore, which must apply to the correct plugin.
instanceAn instance of the plugin State applies to, or NULL.
set_valueA function to set a port value (may be NULL).
user_dataUser data to pass to set_value.
flagsBitwise OR of LV2_State_Flags values.
featuresFeatures to pass LV2_State_Interface.restore().

This will set all the properties of instance, if given, to the values stored in State. If set_value is provided, it will be called (with the given user_data) to restore each port value, otherwise the host must restore the port values itself (using lilv_state_get_port_value()) in order to completely restore State.

If the state has properties and instance is given, this function is in the "instantiation" threading class, i.e. it MUST NOT be called simultaneously with any function on the same plugin instance. If the state has no properties, only port values are set via set_value.

See state.h from the LV2 State extension for details on the flags and features parameters.

◆ lilv_state_save()

LILV_API int lilv_state_save ( LilvWorld * world,
LV2_URID_Map * map,

the first matching node, or NULL if no matches are found.

Find a single node that matches a pattern.

Exactly one of subject, predicate, object must be NULL. This function is equivalent to lilv_nodes_get_first(lilv_world_find_nodes(...)) but simplifies the common case of only wanting a single value.

Returns
The first matching node, or NULL if no matches are found.

◆ lilv_world_get_all_plugins()

LILV_API const LilvPlugins * lilv_world_get_all_plugins ( const LilvWorld * world)

Return a list of all found plugins. The returned list contains just enough references to query or instantiate plugins. The data for a particular plugin will not be loaded into memory until a call to an lilv_plugin_* function results in a query (at which time the data is cached with the LilvPlugin so future queries are very fast).

The returned list and the plugins it contains are owned by world and must not be freed by caller.

◆ lilv_world_get_plugin_class()

LILV_API const LilvPluginClass * lilv_world_get_plugin_class ( const LilvWorld * world)

Get the parent of all other plugin classes, lv2:Plugin.

◆ lilv_world_get_plugin_classes()

LILV_API const LilvPluginClasses * lilv_world_get_plugin_classes ( const LilvWorld * world)

Return a list of all found plugin classes. Returned list is owned by world and must not be freed by the caller.

◆ lilv_world_get_symbol()

LILV_API LilvNode * lilv_world_get_symbol ( LilvWorld * world,
const LilvNode * subject )

Get an LV2 symbol for some subject.

This will return the lv2:symbol property of the subject if it is given explicitly, and otherwise will attempt to derive a symbol from the URI.

Returns
A string node that is a valid LV2 symbol, or NULL on error.

◆ lilv_world_load_all()

LILV_API void lilv_world_load_all ( LilvWorld * world,
const char * lv2_path )

Load all installed LV2 bundles on the system. This is the recommended way for hosts to load LV2 data. It implements the established/standard best practice for discovering all LV2 data on the system. The environment variable LV2_PATH may be used to control where this function will look for bundles.

Hosts should use this function rather than explicitly load bundles, except in special circumstances (e.g. development utilities, or hosts that ship with special plugin bundles which are installed to a known location).

◆ lilv_world_load_bundle()

LILV_API void lilv_world_load_bundle ( LilvWorld * world,
const LilvNode * bundle_uri )

Load a specific bundle. bundle_uri must be a fully qualified URI to the bundle directory, with the trailing slash, eg. file:///usr/lib/lv2/foo.lv2/

Normal hosts should not need this function (use lilv_world_load_all()).

Hosts MUST NOT attach any long-term significance to bundle paths (e.g. in save files), since there are no guarantees they will remain unchanged between (or even during) program invocations. Plugins (among other things) MUST be identified by URIs (not paths) in save files.

Load a specific bundle.

bundle_uri must be a fully qualified URI to the bundle directory, with the trailing slash, eg. file:///usr/lib/lv2/foo.lv2/

Normal hosts should not need this function (use lilv_world_load_all()).

Hosts MUST NOT attach any long-term significance to bundle paths (for example in save files), since there are no guarantees they will remain unchanged between (or even during) program invocations. Plugins (among other things) MUST be identified by URIs (not paths) in save files.

◆ lilv_world_load_plugin_classes()

LILV_API void lilv_world_load_plugin_classes ( LilvWorld * world)

Load all plugin classes from currently loaded specifications.

Must be called after lilv_world_load_specifications(). This is for hosts that explicitly load specific bundles, its use is not necessary when using lilv_world_load_all().

◆ lilv_world_load_resource()

LILV_API int lilv_world_load_resource ( LilvWorld * world,
const LilvNode * resource )

Load all the data associated with the given resource.

Parameters
worldThe world.
resourceMust be a subject (i.e. a URI or a blank node).
Returns
The number of files parsed, or -1 on error

All accessible data files linked to resource with rdfs:seeAlso will be loaded into the world model.

Load all the data associated with the given resource.

All accessible data files linked to resource with rdfs:seeAlso will be loaded into the world model.

Parameters
worldThe world.
resourceMust be a subject (a URI or a blank node).
Returns
The number of files parsed, or -1 on error

◆ lilv_world_load_specifications()

LILV_API void lilv_world_load_specifications ( LilvWorld * world)

Load all specifications from currently loaded bundles.

This is for hosts that explicitly load specific bundles, its use is not necessary when using lilv_world_load_all(). This function parses the specifications and adds them to the model.

◆ lilv_world_new()

LILV_API LilvWorld * lilv_world_new ( void )

Initialize a new, empty world. If initialization fails, NULL is returned.

◆ lilv_world_set_option()

LILV_API void lilv_world_set_option ( LilvWorld * world,
const char * uri,
const LilvNode * value )

Set an option option for world.

Currently recognized options: LILV_OPTION_FILTER_LANG LILV_OPTION_DYN_MANIFEST

Set an option for world.

Currently recognized options:

◆ lilv_world_unload_bundle()

LILV_API int lilv_world_unload_bundle ( LilvWorld * world,
const LilvNode * bundle_uri )

Unload a specific bundle.

This unloads statements loaded by lilv_world_load_bundle(). Note that this is not necessarily all information loaded from the bundle. If any resources have been separately loaded with lilv_world_load_resource(), they must be separately unloaded with lilv_world_unload_resource().

◆ lilv_world_unload_resource()

LILV_API int lilv_world_unload_resource ( LilvWorld * world,
const LilvNode * resource )

Unload all the data associated with the given resource.

Parameters
worldThe world.
resourceMust be a subject (i.e. a URI or a blank node).

This unloads all data loaded by a previous call to lilv_world_load_resource() with the given resource.

Unload all the data associated with the given resource.

This unloads all data loaded by a previous call to lilv_world_load_resource() with the given resource.

Parameters
worldThe world.
resourceMust be a subject (a URI or a blank node).
