Be sure you have Docker installed!
First run the setup script:
./setup.sh
Next you can run the tool by running the doIt.sh script. The result of theconversion will be stored to the data directory.
doIt.sh /path/to/myFile
The tool will generate an mp3 file called data/toConvert.mp3 in the directory of this project.
At the moment maintaining this script and prettying it up isn't a huge priority. However I do have a few mods I'd love to make to it.
- Ability to run this from any directory (right now you need to run it inside the same directory as the Dockerfile)
- Rename and move the output file to directory from which user called the script
I wrote this dockerized version after I discovered that Festival (the text2wave command in particular) seemed to crash a lot on newer versions of Ubuntu.
