Installation

Install the official Voxygen Python client from PyPI:

pip install voxygen-tts

---

Client usage examples in your own Python application

Convert text to audio stream

from voxygen.tts import Client

parameters = {
    "text": "Hello. How can I help you ?",
    "language": "en-US",
    "voice": "Mary"
}

with Client(token="YOUR_TOKEN") as client:
    request = client.build_request(parameters)
    response = client.send(request)

    if client.content_type(response) == voxygen_client.MimeType.AUDIO:
        while data := client.read_data(response):
            print(f"received chunk of audio data: {len(data)} bytes")

Retrieve all available voices from your subscription

from voxygen.tts import Client

with Client(token="YOUR_TOKEN", url="info") as client:

    request = client.build_request({})
    response = client.send(request)

    if response.status == 200:
        info = client.read_json(response)

        print("Available voices:")
        for voice in info.get("voices", []):
            print(voice["name"])
    else:
        print("Error:", response.status, response.read().decode())

Command-Line usage examples

The CLI tool is called voxygen-speak and can call any compatible Voxygen TTS API.

Quick Start example

export VOXYGEN_TOKEN="your_token_here"
voxygen-speak 
  -t $VOXYGEN_TOKEN \
  -p text="Hello world" \
  -p voice=Mary \
  -o output.wav

If you don’t want to pass the -t (--token) option for each command, you can modify the default value of token in main() from the speak.py file

You can also run the CLI tool directly with Python:

python speak.py [options]

---

Generate an audio from a text file

voxygen-speak \
  -i input-text.txt \
  -o output.wav

---

JSON response mode

voxygen-speak \
  -j \
  -p text="Hello as JSON" \
  -p voice=Mary

---

** Retrieve from /tts/info request **

voxygen-speak info

---

CLI options

Option	Long	Description
-t TOKEN	--token TOKEN	Bearer token authentication
-p key=value	--param key=value	TTS parameters
-i file	—	Read text from file
-o file	—	Save audio to file
-j	--json	Request JSON response
-h	--help	Help text

---

Troubleshooting

401 Unauthorized

Common causes:

• Token not provided
• Invalid token
• Token expired or revoked

---

400 Bad Request

Common causes:

• Missing required TTS parameters
• Incorrect endpoint URL (for example, missing or extra /tts)
• Unsupported parameter values

---

503 Service Unavailable

The service may be temporarily unavailable due to high load or maintenance.

The Python client automatically retries requests when a 503 Service Unavailable response is returned.

Default retry settings:

• 6 retries
• 10 seconds between attempts

You can customize this behavior:

client.set_retry_policy(max_retries=2, retry_after=5)

Retries apply only to 503 responses. Other errors are returned immediately.

If the issue persists after multiple retries, wait a few minutes before sending a new request.
