# Watson STT invocation
This project contains a bash script automation example for the IBM Cloud Watson Test to Speech service.
The automation contains two flows:
1. Basic usage to create a german audio based given text in a wav format
2. Customization of an existing voice model to speak german with a kind of palatinate dialect. Just for fun ;-)
### Prerequsites
* [IBM Cloud CLI](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cli?topic=cli-getting-started) installed
* A [Watson Text to Speech](https://cloud.ibm.com/apidocs/text-to-speech#introduction) service with an [Plus plan](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/billing-usage?topic=billing-usage-changing&interface=ui) is created.
* Install the cURL command line on the local computer
Just execute following steps to run the example.
### Step 1: Clone the project
```sh
git clone https://github.com/thomassuedbroecker/watson-tts-invocation
cd watson-tts-invocation
```
### Step 2: Configure the `.env` file
```sh
cp ./code/.env-template ./code/.env
```
### Step 3: Set the correct values in the `.env` file
* [Create an IBM Cloud APIKEY](https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/containers_cd?topic=servers-creating-cloud-api-key)
```sh
ROOTFOLDER="YOUR_PATH"
RESOURCE_GROUP="default"
REGION="us-south"
APIKEY="YOUR_IBMCLOUD_APIKEY"
S2T_SERVICE_INSTANCE_NAME="YOUR_TTS_SERVICE_NAME"
```
### Step 4: Invoke the bash automation
```sh
sh code/use-test-to-speech.sh
```
* Example output
```sh
