@accesslint/voiceover
Advanced tools
A CLI and TypeScript interface for VoiceOver screen reader on macOS.
Use it to launch VoiceOver and log output to the command line, or write your own scripts to drive the screen reader.
$ npx @accesslint/voiceover
yarn add @accesslint/voiceover
or npm i @accesslint/voiceover
.
import { VoiceOver } from '@accesslint/voiceover';
const voiceOver = new VoiceOver();
await voiceOver.launch(); // start VoiceOver screen reader
voiceOver.tail(); // print last phrase on navigation
// perform actions using seek, rotor, and execute
await voiceOver.quit(); // stop VoiceOver
You can navigate to a specific phrase:
import { VoiceOver } from "@accesslint/voiceover";
const voiceOver = new VoiceOver({ log: true });
// open target application, e.g. with PlayWright
await voiceOver.launch();
await voiceOver.advance({
target: {
text: 'Example',
role: 'heading'
},
steps: 10
});
Save recordings of VoiceOver interactive sessions:
import { VoiceOver } from "@accesslint/voiceover";
import * as path from "path";
const voiceOver = new VoiceOver({ log: true });
voiceOver.record({ file: path.resolve(__dirname, 'recording.mov') });
// open target application, e.g. with PlayWright
await voiceOver.launch();
// peform interactions
In a realistic user scenario, someone could navigate the page by headings:
await voiceOver.rotor({ menu: 'Headings', find: 'my heading' }); // navigate directly to a heading using the web rotor
or by landmark:
await voiceOver.rotor({ menu: 'Landmarks', find: 'search' }); // navigate directly to a heading using the web rotor
