Google Cloud Text-to-Speech API Wrapper

A simple Node.js module that converts a given text into speech using the Google Cloud Text-to-Speech API.

Prerequisites

1. Node.js installed.
2. A Google Cloud account and a service account key with Text-to-Speech permissions.
3. Set up the Google Cloud SDK on your local machine.

Installation

1. Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/adanzweig/nodejs-googletts.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

cd nodejs-googletts

3. Install the dependencies:

npm install

4. Set up your Google Cloud credentials:

Export your service account key:

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="<path_to_service_account_key.json>"

Replace <path_to_service_account_key.json> with the path to your Google Cloud service account key.

Usage

Here's how to use the transformTextToSpeachWithGoogle function:

const { transformTextToSpeachWithGoogle } = require('./path_to_your_file');

(async () => {
    const outputFile = await transformTextToSpeachWithGoogle('Your text here', 'output.mp3');
    console.log(`Audio saved to: ${outputFile}`);
})();

Replace 'Your text here' with the text you want to convert and 'output.mp3' with your desired output file name.
