The chords are stored in the following JSON format:
{
"C#":[{
"positions": ["x","4","6","6","6","4"],
"fingerings": [["0","1","3","3","3","1"], ["0","1","2","3","4","1"]]
},{
"positions": ["9","11","11","10","9","9"],
"fingerings":[["1","3","4","2","1","1"]]
}, ...],
"C#m":[{
"positions":["x","4","6","6","5","4"],
"fingerings":[["0","1","3","4","2","1"]]
},{
"positions":["9","11","11","9","9","9"],
"fingerings":[["1","3","4","1","1","1"]]
}, ...],
...
}
For a usage example please refer to my Chord-Draw project.
If you want a complete list of all chords with all it's shapes, then go ahead and use chords.complete.json (~ 13.5MB !!!) or chords.complete.js (~ 13.5MB !!!).
If you want a list of all chords and one shape per chord is enough for you, then you should use chords.json (~ 1.2MB !) or chords.js (~ 1.2MB !).
This chord library has been created with the help of jguitar.com. Which is a really awesome website that goes far beyond what this project could offer. You should defintiely check it out and consider supporting them!
