Flask-gTTS

Build Status Latest Release Coverage Status Code Style

A Flask extension to add support for Google Text-To-Speech (TTS).

Install:

- With pip

  • pip install Flask-gTTS

- From the source:

  • git clone https://github.com/mrf345/flask_gtts.git
  • cd flask_gtts
  • python setup.py install

Setup:

- Inside the Flask app:

from flask import Flask, render_template
from flask_gtts import gtts
app = Flask(__name__)
gtts(app)

- Inside the jinja template:

{% block content %}
  <audio src="{{ sayit(text='Hello from Flask !')}}"></audio>
{% endblock %}

- Dynamic read TTS example:

<head>
  {{ read(id='.readIt') }}
</head>
<body>
  <h1 class='readIt'>Say something</h1>
  <h1 class='readIT' language='it'>qualcosa da dire</h1>
</body>

- Dynamic route example:

from flask import Flask
from flask_gtts import gtts

# If we want to allow only logged in users for example.
from flask_login import login_required

app = Flask(__name__)
gtts(app,
     route=True,
     route_decorator=login_required,
     route_path='/gtts')

And now you can test the endpoint by accessing http://localhost:5000/gtts/en-us/some text to test. It will return JSON response:

{
    "mp3": "Generated audio file path."
}
