discord-speech-to-text

Discord.js Speech Transcriber

This transcriber was made for speech to text in discord voice calls. It uses wit.ai.

Preparation

To use the tool you need

• to know how to set up a Discord bot using Node.JS that can interact with voice channels
• a free API key for wit.ai (found in the settings section after you created an app)

Installation

Simply run

npm install discord-text-to-speech

Happy coding!

Usage

First, you need to import the module and create a Transcriber instance with your API key as shown here:

const Transcriber = require("discord-speech-to-text");

const transcriber = new Transcriber(WITAIKEY);

Next you have to join the voice channel with you Discord bot and apply the transcriber when someone says something.

let channel = interaction.member.guild.channels.cache.get(interaction.member.voice.channel.id);
const connection = joinVoiceChannel({
  channelId: channel.id,
  guildId: channel.guild.id,
  adapterCreator: channel.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
  selfDeaf: false,
  selfMute: false
});
connection.receiver.speaking.on("start", (userId) => {
  transcriber.listen(connection.receiver, userId, client.users.cache.get(userId)).then((data) => {
    if (!data.transcript.text) return;
    let text = data.transcript.text;
    let user = data.user;
  });
});

Have Fun!
