AWS SDK for JavaScript Transcribe Client for Node.js, Browser and React Native
AWS SDK for JavaScript Transcribe Client for Node.js, Browser and React Native.
Amazon Transcribe offers three main types of batch transcription: Standard, Medical, and Call Analytics.
Standard transcriptions are the most common option. Refer to for details.
Medical transcriptions are tailored to medical professionals and incorporate medical terms. A common use case for this service is transcribing doctor-patient dialogue into after-visit notes. Refer to for details.
Call Analytics transcriptions are designed for use with call center audio on two different channels; if you're looking for insight into customer service calls, use this option. Refer to for details.
To install this package, simply type add or install @aws-sdk/client-transcribe using your favorite package manager:
npm install @aws-sdk/client-transcribeyarn add @aws-sdk/client-transcribepnpm add @aws-sdk/client-transcribeThe AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands.
To send a request, you only need to import the TranscribeClient and
the commands you need, for example ListVocabulariesCommand:
// ES5 example
const { TranscribeClient, ListVocabulariesCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-transcribe");
// ES6+ example
import { TranscribeClient, ListVocabulariesCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-transcribe";
To send a request, you:
send operation on client with command object as input.destroy() to close open connections.// a client can be shared by different commands.
const client = new TranscribeClient({ region: "REGION" });
const params = {
/** input parameters */
};
const command = new ListVocabulariesCommand(params);
We recommend using await operator to wait for the promise returned by send operation as follows:
// async/await.
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
// error handling.
} finally {
// finally.
}
Async-await is clean, concise, intuitive, easy to debug and has better error handling as compared to using Promise chains or callbacks.
You can also use Promise chaining to execute send operation.
client.send(command).then(
(data) => {
// process data.
},
(error) => {
// error handling.
}
);
Promises can also be called using .catch() and .finally() as follows:
client
.send(command)
.then((data) => {
// process data.
})
.catch((error) => {
// error handling.
})
.finally(() => {
// finally.
});
We do not recommend using callbacks because of callback hell, but they are supported by the send operation.
// callbacks.
client.send(command, (err, data) => {
// process err and data.
});
The client can also send requests using v2 compatible style. However, it results in a bigger bundle size and may be dropped in next major version. More details in the blog post on modular packages in AWS SDK for JavaScript
import * as AWS from "@aws-sdk/client-transcribe";
const client = new AWS.Transcribe({ region: "REGION" });
// async/await.
try {
const data = await client.listVocabularies(params);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
// error handling.
}
// Promises.
client
.listVocabularies(params)
.then((data) => {
// process data.
})
.catch((error) => {
// error handling.
});
// callbacks.
client.listVocabularies(params, (err, data) => {
// process err and data.
});
When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information, as well as response metadata (e.g. request id).
try {
const data = await client.send(command);
// process data.
} catch (error) {
const { requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId } = error.$metadata;
console.log({ requestId, cfId, extendedRequestId });
/**
* The keys within exceptions are also parsed.
* You can access them by specifying exception names:
* if (error.name === 'SomeServiceException') {
* const value = error.specialKeyInException;
* }
*/
}
