Table of contents:
Quickstart
Before you begin
- Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
- Enable billing for your project.
- Enable the Google Cloud Text-to-Speech API.
- Set up authentication with a service account so you can access the
API from your local workstation.
Installing the client library
npm install @google-cloud/text-to-speech
Using the client library
const textToSpeech = require('@google-cloud/text-to-speech');
const fs = require('fs');
const util = require('util');
async function main() {
const client = new textToSpeech.TextToSpeechClient();
const text = 'Hello, world!';
const request = {
input: {text: text},
voice: {languageCode: 'en-US', ssmlGender: 'NEUTRAL'},
audioConfig: {audioEncoding: 'MP3'},
};
const [response] = await client.synthesizeSpeech(request);
const writeFile = util.promisify(fs.writeFile);
await writeFile('output.mp3', response.audioContent, 'binary');
console.log('Audio content written to file: output.mp3');
}
