## Installation :

	pip install pyttsx3

> If you get installation errors , make sure you first upgrade your wheel version using :
`pip install --upgrade wheel`


## Features :

- ✨Fully **OFFLINE** text to speech conversion
- 🎈 Choose among different voices installed in your system
- 🎛 Control speed/rate of speech
- 🎚 Tweak Volume
- 📀 Save the speech audio as a file
- ❤️ Simple, powerful, & intuitive API


#### Linux installation requirements :

+ If you are on a Linux system and if the voice output is not working, then  :

	Install espeak-ng and libespeak1 as shown below:

	```
	sudo apt update && sudo apt install espeak-ng libespeak1
	```

## Usage :

```python3
import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init()

# For Mac, If you face error related to "pyobjc" when running the `init()` method :
# Install 9.0.1 version of pyobjc : "pip install pyobjc>=9.0.1"

engine.say("I will speak this text")
engine.runAndWait()
```

**Single line usage with speak function with default options**

```python3
import pyttsx3
pyttsx3.speak("I will speak this text")
```

**Changing Voice , Rate and Volume :**

```python3
import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init() # object creation

# RATE
rate = engine.getProperty('rate')   # getting details of current speaking rate
print (rate)                        # printing current voice rate
engine.setProperty('rate', 125)     # setting up new voice rate

# VOLUME
volume = engine.getProperty('volume')   # getting to know current volume level (min=0 and max=1)
print (volume)                          # printing current volume level
engine.setProperty('volume',1.0)        # setting up volume level  between 0 and 1

# VOICE
voices = engine.getProperty('voices')       # getting details of current voice
#engine.setProperty('voice', voices[0].id)  # changing index, changes voices. o for male
engine.setProperty('voice', voices[1].id)   # changing index, changes voices. 1 for female

engine.say("Hello World!")
engine.say('My current speaking rate is ' + str(rate))
engine.runAndWait()
engine.stop()

# Saving Voice to a file
# On Linux, make sure that 'espeak-ng' is installed
engine.save_to_file('Hello World', 'test.mp3')
engine.runAndWait()
```
