How can I implement Ruby client?

[okuramasafumi]

Hi, I'm wondering if I could implement a Ruby client for Vosk. How should we process the development? Should we develop it in separate repository or should we write code in this repository and send a PR?

Hi. A PR would be welcome! Both bindings for vosk-api and client example for vosk-server

For API you can use https://github.com/ffi/ffi I suppose. For server https://github.com/imanel/websocket-ruby

@nshmyrev Thank you, I'll take a look at Python code for a close example. If I have any question, I'll post it here.

[nshmyrev]

Sure, let us know please

I even created a template

https://github.com/alphacep/vosk-api/tree/master/ruby

and also pushed to rubygems:

https://rubygems.org/gems/vosk

[okuramasafumi]

Nice, after adding real code please add me to collaborators in rubygems!

[nshmyrev]

I added you as an owner! Thank you

Should I build libvosk to test against it?

You'd better download prebuilt library in releases:
