🎙️ WhisperMix
WhisperMix is a flexible module that provides an interface for transcribing audio using OpenAI's Whisper model or Groq's Whisper Large v3 model.
📦 Installation
npm install whispermix
⚙️ Configuration
Before using WhisperMix, you need to set up your environment variables:
- For OpenAI's Whisper: Set
OPENAI_API_KEY
in your environment or.env
file. - For Groq's Whisper Large v3: Set
GROQ_API_KEY
in your environment or.env
file.
🚀 Usage
First, import the WhisperMix class:
const WhisperMix = require('whispermix');
🔧 Initializing WhisperMix
You can initialize WhisperMix with a specific model:
const whisper = new WhisperMix({ model: 'whisper-1' }); // For OpenAI's Whisper
// or
const whisperGroq = new WhisperMix({ model: 'whisper-large-v3' }); // For Groq's Whisper Large v3
📄 Transcribing from a File
const filePath = 'path/to/your/audio/file.mp3';
whisperGroq.fromFile(filePath)
.then(transcription => console.log(transcription))
.catch(error => console.error(error));
🌊 Transcribing from a Stream
const fs = require('fs');
const audioStream = fs.createReadStream('path/to/your/audio/file.mp3');
whisperGroq.fromStream(audioStream)
.then(transcription => console.log(transcription))
.catch(error => console.error(error));
🚦 Bottleneck Configuration
WhisperMix uses Bottleneck for rate limiting. You can configure the Bottleneck settings when initializing WhisperMix:
const whisper = new WhisperMix({
model: 'whisper-1',
bottleneck: {
minTime: 3000,
maxConcurrent: 1,
reservoir: 18,
reservoirRefreshAmount: 18,
reservoirRefreshInterval: 60000
}
});
The default Bottleneck configuration is:
minTime
: 3000 ms (minimum time between requests)maxConcurrent
: 1 (maximum number of concurrent requests)reservoir
: 18 (number of requests that can be made before throttling)reservoirRefreshAmount
: 18 (number of requests added back to the reservoir)reservoirRefreshInterval
: 60000 ms (time interval for refreshing the reservoir)
You can adjust these settings based on your specific rate limiting needs.
