Cross-platform library to play audio files
Project description
This repository was forked from TaylorSMarks/playsound
playsound3
Cross platform library to play sound files in Python.
Installation
Install via pip:
pip install playsound3
Quick Start
Once installed, you can use the playsound function to play sound files:
from playsound3 import playsound
playsound("/path/to/sound/file.mp3")
# or use directly on URLs
playsound("http://url/to/sound/file.mp3")
Documentation
The playsound module contains only one thing - the function (also named) playsound:
def playsound(sound, block: bool = True) -> None:
"""Play a sound file using an audio backend availabile in your system.
Args:
sound: Path to the sound file. Can be either an str or pathlib.Path.
block: If True, the function will block execution until the sound finishes playing.
"""
It requires one argument - the path to the file with the sound you'd like to play. This should be a local file or a URL. There's an optional second argument, block, which is set to True by default. Setting it to False makes the function run asynchronously.
Supported systems
- Linux, using GStreamer (built-in on Linux distributions)
- Windows, using winmm.dll (built-in on Windows)
- OS X, using afplay utility (built-in on OS X)
