The TTS-Engine is a simple and efficient library that provides Text-to-Speech functionality for Android applications. The library uses state-of-the-art speech synthesis technology to generate high-quality speech from text, and supports multiple languages and voices.

TTS Engine

A simple and efficient library that provides Text-to-Speech functionality for Android applications.

Features

• Support for multiple languages and voices
• Easy-to-use API

Installation

Add the library to your project using Gradle:

allprojects {
		repositories {
			maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
		}
	}

dependencies {
	        implementation 'com.github.aiyu-ayaan:tts-engine:Tag'
	}

Usage

Using the library is straightforward and simple. Here is an example of how to use it in your code:

    TextToSpeechHelper
        .getInstance(activity)
        .registerLifecycle(owner)
        .speak(message)
        .highlight()
        .onHighlight { pair ->
            Log.d(TAG, "speak: ${pair.first} - ${pair.second}")
        }
        .onDone {
            Log.d(TAG, "speak: done")
        }
        .onError {
            Log.d(TAG, "speak: $it")
        }

• activity is the activity that will be used to initialize the TTS engine.

• owner is the lifecycle owner that will be used to register the TTS engine lifecycle observer and can handle the lifecycle events.

• message is the text that will be spoken.

• highlight() is an optional method that will highlight the spoken words in the text.

• onHighlight() is an optional method that will be called when a word is spoken.

• onDone() is an method that will be called when the text is spoken.

• onError() is an method that will be called when an error occurs.

Code Example

For Jetpack Compose, check out the example below:

MainActivity.kt

class MainActivity : ComponentActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContent {
            TTSLibraryTheme {
                val viewModel = MainViewModel()
                val resource = stringResource(id = R.string.des)
                val text = remember { resource }

//                screen
                Surface(
                    modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize(),
                    color = MaterialTheme.colorScheme.background
                ) {
                    Screen(
                        state = text,
                        viewModel = viewModel,
                    ) {
                        speak(
                            this,
                            this as LifecycleOwner,
                            text,
                            viewModel
                        )
                    }
                }

            }
        }
    }
}

@Composable
fun Screen(
    modifier: Modifier = Modifier,
    viewModel: MainViewModel,
    state: String,
    onButtonClick: () -> Unit = {},
) {
    Column(
        modifier = modifier
            .fillMaxSize()
            .padding(16.dp),
        verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Center,
        horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally
    ) {
        val s = viewModel.getState().value
        TTSText(
            textAlign = TextAlign.Center,
            textHighlightBuilder = TextHighlightBuilder(
                text = state,
                s
            ),
        )
        Spacer(modifier = Modifier.padding(16.dp))
        Button(onClick = onButtonClick) {
            Text(text = stringResource(id = R.string.speak))
        }
    }
}


private fun speak(
    activity: Activity,
    owner: LifecycleOwner,
    message: String,
    viewModel: MainViewModel
) {
    TextToSpeechHelper
        .getInstance(activity)
        .registerLifecycle(owner)
        .speak(message)
        .highlight()
        .onHighlight { pair ->
            viewModel.updateState(pair)
        }
        .onDone {
            Log.d(TAG, "speak: done")
        }
        .onError {
            Log.d(TAG, "speak: $it")
        }
}

MainViewModel.kt

class MainViewModel : ViewModel() {
    private val state = mutableStateOf(Pair(0, 0))

    fun updateState(pair: Pair<Int, Int>) {
        state.value = pair
    }

    fun getState(): State<Pair<Int, Int>> = state
}

For XML layouts, check out the example below:

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
        val textView = findViewById<TextView>(R.id.text_view)
        val button = findViewById<Button>(R.id.button)
        val message = getString(R.string.des)
        button.setOnClickListener {
            speak(
                this,
                this as LifecycleOwner,
                message,
                textView
            )
        }
    }

    private fun speak(
        activity: Activity,
        owner: LifecycleOwner,
        message: String,
        textView: TextView
    ) {
        TextToSpeechHelper
            .getInstance(activity)
            .registerLifecycle(owner)
            .speak(message)
            .highlight()
            .onHighlight { pair ->
                textView.highlightText(pair.first, pair.second)
            }
            .onDone {
                Log.d(TAG, "speak: done")
            }
            .onError {
                Log.d(TAG, "speak: $it")
            }
    }
}

tts-engine's Issues

`onDone` calls `onStartListener`

See relevant line below:

tts-engine/tts-engine/src/main/java/com/atech/tts_engine/tts/engine/TextToSpeechEngine.kt

Line 60 in 737817f

onStartListener?.invoke()

I believe this should be onDonelistener?.invoke()
