I am trying to typeset an orchestral part for a Viola section I play in. 

What they want is bar numbers only at the start of each line.

 

I searched the repository and couldnt find anything, might this mean I 

have to manually enter these bar numbers and if so, how is that possible ? 

This didn't seem to be a capability with the bar number engraver, so maybe just a 

\markup containing the number manually at each new line ?

This is the default.  See 1.2.5 Bars in the notation manual.
