recording my violin on sibelius

I often spend much of my time composing violin solos (one day, i'll release them to the public, but for now, my stash is trash, therefore, its not exactly worth sharing)

But i'm getting ideas all the time, and i love to sit down and just play whatever comes into my mind.

I was wondering if it was possible, given, i would need to get a pickup, and then a midi device (except I dont know which one), but how would i set this up so sibelius would record what i play?

Also, when i say 'record what i play', I mean in terms of it writes down what I play in music, not just records it so I can hear it later.

Thanks for all your help.

EDIT: I know this is possible for piano, but too bad i don't know piano, therefore, I'm limited to violin. Also, how would intonation affect this? I'd assume I wouldn't be able to play virbrato.
