Godot MIDI Input example

Official Godot docs:
The Demo
The enclosed Godot 3.1-compatible project lists available MIDI input devices, dumps textual information about the events received and visualises key presses on a 1-octave on screen keyboard.
Just The Code...
If you just want some example code so you can implement your own MIDI Input-based Godot project...
# The MIDI Input specific parts...
func _ready():
OS.open_midi_inputs() # Required for cross-platform reliability.
print(OS.get_connected_midi_inputs()) # List available MIDI input sources (e.g. keyboard, controller).
func _unhandled_input(event : InputEvent):
if (event is InputEventMIDI): # When we get a MIDI input event...
var event_dump_rb : String = ""
# Display the available property values...
event_dump_rb += "chn: {channel} msg: {message}\n".format({"channel": event.channel, "message": event.message})
event_dump_rb += " pitch: {pitch} vel: {velocity}\n".format({"pitch": event.pitch, "velocity": event.velocity})
event_dump_rb += "\n"
print(event_dump_rb)
# Example of converting pitch to a keyboard key (not a musical key) within an octave.
var key_index = event.pitch % 12
# Handle the received message type appropriately...
match event.message:
MIDI_MESSAGE_NOTE_ON:
# Do something here...
MIDI_MESSAGE_NOTE_OFF:
# Do something here...
