pyttsx3 is a text-to-speech conversion library in Python. Unlike alternative libraries, it works offline, and is compatible with both Python 2 and 3.
Installation
pip install pyttsx3
If you recieve errors such as No module named win32com.client, No module named win32, or No module named win32api, you will need to additionally install pypiwin32.
Usage :
import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init()
engine.say("I will speak this text")
engine.runAndWait()
Changing Voice , Rate and Volume :
import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init() # object creation
""" RATE"""
rate = engine.getProperty('rate') # getting details of current speaking rate
print (rate) #printing current voice rate
engine.setProperty('rate', 125) # setting up new voice rate
"""VOLUME"""
volume = engine.getProperty('volume') #getting to know current volume level (min=0 and max=1)
print (volume) #printing current volume level
engine.setProperty('volume',1.0) # setting up volume level between 0 and 1
"""VOICE"""
voices = engine.getProperty('voices') #getting details of current voice
#engine.setProperty('voice', voices[0].id) #changing index, changes voices. o for male
engine.setProperty('voice', voices[1].id) #changing index, changes voices. 1 for female
engine.say("Hello World!")
engine.say('My current speaking rate is ' + str(rate))
engine.runAndWait()
engine.stop()
"""Saving Voice to a file"""
# On linux make sure that 'espeak' and 'ffmpeg' are installed
engine.save_to_file('Hello World', 'test.mp3')
