markovian-media
Quick start
As an isomorphic JavaScript package, there are multiple ways for clients, servers, and bundlers to start using this library. Several methods do not require installation.
RunKit
RunKit provides one of the least difficult ways to get started:
CodePen
Declare imports in the JS section to get started:
import { takeOnWreckingBall } from 'https://unpkg.com/markovian-media@latest?module';const song = takeOnWreckingBall();console.log(song);// example output: 'i guess i never meant to be gone...'Browsers
Insert the following element within the <head> tag of an HTML document:
After the script is loaded, the markovianMedia browser global is exposed:
const song = markovianMedia.takeOnWreckingBall();console.log(song);// example output: 'i guess i never meant to be gone...'Node.js
With npm installed, run terminal command:
npm i markovian-mediaOnce installed, declare method imports at the top of each JavaScript file they will be used.
ES2015

import { takeOnWreckingBall } from 'markovian-media';CommonJS
const takeOnWreckingBall = ;Usage
Generate a random song
takeOnWreckingBall();// example output: 'i guess i never meant to be gone...'Generate a specific song
Optionally providing seeds generates deterministic media.
const seeds = [ 74, 40, 83, 115, 110, 108, 158, 204, 245,]; takeOnWreckingBall(seeds);// output: 'i guess i never meant to be gone...'Media catalogue
Providing methods with optional seeds generates deterministic media. This section lists a seed or seeds that generate titled works.

Omit all seeds to generate random media.
Omit some seeds to generate a random and deterministic media combination. Substitute any numbers with null to randomize those specific seeds (e.g.: seeds = [1, 2, null, 4] is 25% random, 75% deterministic).
