If you have some program, that can play audio files locally or somewhere else, you can write this command here. E.g.
myCustomPlayer --option
If System output is selected, the sayit adapter will execute following command on local system:
myCustomPlayer --option /opt/iobroker/node_modules/iobroker.sayit/say.mp3
If file name must stay somewhere in the middle you can use %s to specify where the file name must be placed:
myCustomPlayer --option "%s" > /dev/null
sayIt will make myCustomPlayer --option "/opt/iobroker/node_modules/iobroker.sayit/say.mp3" > /dev/null from it.
SayIt adapter cannot be used alone. It must be controlled from javascript adapter or from "vis" with specific widget. After creation of adapter instance will can find following objects:
- sayit.N.tts.text: Phrase to be spoken.
- sayit.N.tts.volume: volume which will be used by playing of the phrase.
- sayit.N.tts.playing: true if text is now playing and false if not. Supported only for "windows" and "system" play mode.
- sayit.N.tts.cachetext: Phrase to be cached and then it can be used without internet. E.g. you can enter here manually "No internet" and if ping to google.com is negative, write "No internet" to "tts.text" and it will pronounced. Of course cache must be enabled.
State tts.text supports extended syntax, so the langugage/engine and volume can be defined together with text. It is used to enable multi-language text2speech engines.
E.g. if adapter has engine "Google-english", it is possible with phrase de:Sag es to force to use Google-Deustch speech engine.
With ru;75;Погода хорошая we can force to use russian language and volume 75%.
You can specify the volume of announcement in percent from current or given volume (not from maximal). E.g. if command is de;75;Gutes Wetterand "announce volume" is 50%, the announce will be played with volume 38% from 100% possible.
The system command to play the mp3 file can be specified too. If you leave it blank, the default settings will be used: windows - cmdmp3.exe, OSX - /usr/bin/afplay, linux - mpg321 or omxplayer (recommended).
To install omxplayer write sudo apt-get install omxplayer or write sudo apt-get install mpg321 to install mpg321.
Note: The default announce selection will be possible only after start of the instance.
To immediately pronounce the text despite the queued texts you have 2 possibilities:
- place "!" as a first character in text, so this text will be pronounced immediately after current one.
- write true into "tts.clearQueue" state and the queue will be cleared. After that you can write a new text into "tts.text", but all queued texts are thrown away.
