Examples

The most common usage will be to pass in a simple text file and get the output:

$ echo "Hello World" > input.txt
$ audify -i input.txt -o output.mp3

You can also pass in text from stdin:

$ echo "Hello World" | audify -i - -o output.mp3

If you want to access audify from a Python script, you can import and call it directly:

from audify import audify

audify(
    input_filename='input.txt',
    output_filename='output.mp3',
)

You can also pass file-like objects:

import io

from audify import audify_fileobj

audify_fileobj(
    fileobj=io.StringIO('Hello World'),
    output_filename='output.mp3',
)

Any voice supported by Amazon Polly can be used:

$ echo "Hello World" | audify -i - -o output.mp3 -v Joey

from audify import audify

audify(
    input_filename='input.txt',
    output_filename='output.mp3',
    voice='Ivy',
)
