smart formatting property is not available

[KiranPatelSpaceo]

let confSTT: STTConfiguration = STTConfiguration()
confSTT.basicAuthUsername = "XYZ"
confSTT.basicAuthPassword = "XYZ"
confSTT.audioCodec = WATSONSDK_AUDIO_CODEC_TYPE_OPUS
confSTT.modelName = strBroadbandName
confSTT.continuous = true

How to set property smart_formatting = true or false ?

Hi @kiran5232 ,

so far this repo does not support it, as there are several PR conflicts needs to be resolved, meanwhile, you can try my forked repository: https://github.com/mihui/speech-ios-sdk, it was based on this repository and with some enhancements, but we didn't have any reviews yet.

So in that repository, you can use:

confSTT.smartFormatting = true

@nacho4d , please consider to add some more configurations to keep this repository up-to-date, smart formatting was the latest release of STT.

I have noticed there is a lot of parameters not supported and it could be more in the future. So, I have created NSDictonary<NSString *, NSObject*> *additionaParameters to address this and future new parameters. Please look at #42

The objective-c sample app shows how to send "smart_formatting":

[confSTT setAdditionalParameters:@{@"smart_formatting": @(YES)}];

@mihui If you have time, could you take a look at this please? Maybe my english pronunciation is not very good to check this case.

@nacho4d thanks, that's a very good solution for future use, however it will confuse the developers about which is additional parameter, and it will cause mistakes if the developer do not understand how to organize them, see the models created from ios-sdk:
https://github.com/watson-developer-cloud/ios-sdk/tree/master/Source/SpeechToTextV1/Models

So I suggest to have explicitly defined variables/properties as we did before. :)

Sorry it took this long. I was busy with other suff then I completely forgot about it :(

@mihui I have removed additionalParameters and copied most of your branch getStartMessage method.

If no problems it can be merged right away. Otherwise I will do it in a couple of days...

Hey @nacho4d , understood. I see the code, please go ahead and merge. Thanks.

[nacho4d]

Thanks! I have merged it. I am closing this issue too since it is addressed now.
