Kaylee is a somewhat fancy speech recognizer that will run commands and perform other functions when a user speaks loosely preset sentences. It is based on Blather by Jezra, but adds a lot of features that go beyond the original purpose of Blather.
Requirements
Python 3 (tested with 3.5, may work with older versions)
pocketsphinx 5prealpha
gstreamer-1.0 (and what ever plugin has pocketsphinx support)
gstreamer-1.0 base plugins (required for ALSA)
python-gobject (required for GStreamer and the GTK-based UI)
python-requests (required for automatic language updating)
Note: it may also be required to install pocketsphinx-hmm-en-hub4wsj
Usage
Copy options.json.tmp to ~/.config/kaylee/options.json and fill the “commands” section of the file with sentences to speak and commands to run.
Run kaylee.py. This will generate ~/.local/share/kaylee/sentences.corpus based on sentences in the “commands” section of options.json, then use the Sphinx Knowledge Base Tool to create and save a new language model and dictionary.
For GTK UI, run kaylee.py -i g
To start a UI in ‘continuous’ listen mode, use the -c flag
To use a microphone other than the system default, use the -m flag
Start talking!
Note: default values for command-line arguments may be specified in the options.json file.
Examples
To run Kaylee with the GTK UI, starting in continuous listen mode: ./kaylee.py -i g -c
To run Kaylee with no UI and using a USB microphone recognized as device 2: ./kaylee.py -m 2
To have Kaylee pass each word of the matched sentence as a separate argument to the executed command: ./kaylee.py -p
To run a command when a valid sentence has been detected: ./kaylee.py --valid-sentence-command=/path/to/command
To run a command when a invalid sentence has been detected: ./kaylee.py --invalid-sentence-command=/path/to/command
Finding the Device Number of a USB microphone
There are a few ways to find the device number of a USB microphone.
