Edge TTS is a powerful Text-to-Speech (TTS) package that leverages Microsoft's Edge capabilities. This package allows you to synthesize speech from text and manage voice options easily through a command-line interface (CLI).
- Text-to-Speech: Convert text into natural-sounding speech using Microsoft Edge's TTS capabilities.
- Multiple Voices: Access a variety of voices to suit your project's needs.
- Audio Export Options: Export synthesized audio in different formats (raw, base64, or directly to a file).
- Command-Line Interface: Use a simple CLI for easy access to functionality.
- Easy Integration: Modular structure allows for easy inclusion in existing projects.
You can install Edge TTS via npm. Run the following command in your terminal:
bun add @andresaya/edge-ttsnpm install @andresaya/edge-ttsCommand-Line Interface
You can install Edge TTS via npm. bun Run the following command in your terminal:
npm install -g @andresaya/edge-ttsbun install --global edge-ttsTo synthesize speech from text, use the following command:
edge-tts synthesize -t "Hello, world!" -o hello_world_audioTo list available voices, run:
edge-tts voice-listIntegration into Your Project To use Edge TTS in your Bun project, you can import it like this:
import { EdgeTTS } from '@andresaya/edge-tts';
// Initialize the EdgeTTS service
const tts = new EdgeTTS();
// Get voices
const voices = await tts.getVoices();
console.log(voices); // Display available voices
// Synthesize text with options for voice, rate, volume, and pitch
await tts.synthesize("Hello, world!", 'en-US-AriaNeural', {
rate: '0%', // Speech rate (range: -100% to 100%)
volume: '0%', // Speech volume (range: -100% to 100%)
pitch: '0Hz' // Voice pitch (range: -100Hz to 100Hz)
});
// Export synthesized audio in different formats
tts.toBase64(); // Get audio as base64
await tts.toFile("output_audio"); // Save audio to file
await tts.toRaw(); // Get raw audio bufferAfter synthesizing speech, you can export the audio in various formats:
-
toBase64: Returns the audio as a Base64 string. -
toFile: Saves the audio to a specified file (e.g., "output.wav"). -
toRaw: Returns the raw audio stream.
