Voice Skill

The Voice skill provides enhanced text-to-speech functionality using edge-tts, allowing you to convert text to spoken audio with multiple playback options.

Features

• Text-to-speech conversion using Microsoft Edge's TTS engine
• Support for various voice options and audio settings
• Direct playback of generated audio
• Automatic cleanup of temporary audio files
• Integration with the MEDIA system for audio playback

Installation

Before using this skill, you need to install the required dependency:

pip3 install edge-tts

Or use the skill's install action:

await skill.execute({ action: 'install' });

Usage

Direct Speaking (Recommended)

Speak text directly without storing to file:

const result = await skill.execute({
  action: 'speak',  // New improved action
  text: 'Hello, how are you today?'
});
// Audio is played directly and temporary file is cleaned up automatically

Text-to-Speech with File Generation

Convert text to speech with default settings:

const result = await skill.execute({
  action: 'tts',
  text: 'Hello, how are you today?'
});
// Returns a MEDIA link to the audio file

With direct playback:

const result = await skill.execute({
  action: 'tts',
  text: 'Hello, how are you today?',
  playImmediately: true  // Plays the audio immediately after generation
});

With custom options:

const result = await skill.execute({
  action: 'tts',
  text: 'This is a sample of voice customization.',
  options: {
    voice: 'zh-CN-XiaoxiaoNeural',
    rate: '+10%',
    volume: '-5%',
    pitch: '+10Hz'
  }
});

Play Existing Audio File

Play an existing audio file:

const result = await skill.execute({
  action: 'play',
  filePath: '/path/to/audio/file.mp3'
});

List Available Voices

Get a list of available voices:

const result = await skill.execute({
  action: 'voices'

Cleanup Temporary Files

Clean up temporary audio files older than 1 hour (default):

const result = await skill.execute({
  action: 'cleanup'
});

Or specify a custom age threshold:

const result = await skill.execute({
  action: 'cleanup',
  options: {
    hoursOld: 2  // Clean files older than 2 hours
  }
});
