Bol (बोल) 🗣

TTS Library for Web

Currently just a wrapper around speechSynthesis with slightly better consistency in voices, Trying to be super consistent! Text-to-speech for Web.

Meant to be used on frontend.

NOT READY FOR PROD

If you still want to ruin your life, here's how you can do it:

Installation

npm install --save bol

<script src="https://unpkg.com/bol@^0/dist/bol.min.js"></script>

Usage

ES Module

import Bol from 'bol';

const bol = new Bol("UK English Female", {rate: .8, pitch: 1, volume: 1})

bol.speak("Whhatta useless package", "UK English Male")
  .then(elapsedTime => console.log(elapsedTime))

Vanilla Script Include

<body>
  <button class="talk">Fact of the Day</button>
  <script src="https://unpkg.com/bol@^0/dist/bol.min.js"></script>
  <script>
    const bol = new Bol('UK English Male', {rate: .8});

    document.querySelector('.talk').addEventListener('click', e => {
      bol.speak("HTML is a programming language!")
        .then(elapsedTime => {
          console.log(elapsedTime);
        })
    })
  </script>
</body>

Make sure you wrap bol.speak around a user's touch, swipe, click handlers to make it work.
