noahs-tts 0.1.0

A wrapper class to get started using Text To Speech quickly

Usage: noahs_tts

Getting Started

First, install the library:

pip install noahs_tts

Quick start

from noahs_tts import TTS  # if you saved the class in tts.py

tts = TTS()
tts.say("Hello world!")  # blocks until finished

Speak sentence-by-sentence (default) for snappier responsiveness:

tts.say("First sentence. Second sentence! Third sentence?")

Speak the whole string as one chunk:

tts.say("This will be spoken as a single utterance.", split_sentences=False)

---

Voice management

List available voices (id, name, locale, gender when available):

voices = tts.voices()
for v in voices:
    print(v["id"], v["name"], v["locale"], v["gender"])

Pick a voice by name or id (partial match allowed):

tts = TTS(voice="Zira")          # Windows example
tts = TTS(voice="Samantha")      # macOS example
tts = TTS(voice="english-us")    # Linux/eSpeak example

---

Control rate

Rate is engine-specific “words per minute” style. This wrapper casts to int.

tts = TTS(rate=180)      # set default on init
tts.say("Speaking at 180 wpm (approx).")

tts.say("Speed this one up.", split_sentences=False)

You can also override per-call when saving/synthesizing:

data = tts.synth("Faster line.", rate=220)

---

Save audio

Get WAV bytes:

wav_bytes = tts.synth("Save me to a file later.")
with open("out.wav", "wb") as f:
    f.write(wav_bytes)

Or save directly:

tts.save("Write this straight to disk.", "speech.wav", voice="Samantha", rate=170)
