## 🧐 About <a name = "about"></a>

This repository is actively maintained by [Aflorithmic Labs](https://www.aflorithmic.ai/). For examples, recipes and api reference see the [api.audio docs](https://docs.api.audio/reference).

## 🏁 Getting Started <a name = "getting_started"></a>

### Installation

You don't need this source code unless you want to modify it. If you want to use the package, just run:

```sh
pip install aflr -U
```

Install from source with:

```sh
python setup.py install
```

### Prerequisites <a name = "requirements"></a>

Python 3.6+

## 🚀 Hello World <a name = "hello_world"></a>

Create a file `hello.py`

```python
touch hello.py
```

### Authentication

The library needs to be configured with your account's secret key which is available in your [Aflorithmic Dashboard](https://console.api.audio). Import the aflr package and set `aflr.api_key` with the api-key you got from the dashboard:

```python
import aflr
aflr.api_key = "your-key"
```

### Create Text to audio in 4 steps

Let's create our first audio from text.

✍️ Create a new script:

```python
script = aflr.Script().create(scriptText="Hello world", scriptName="hello")
print(script)
```

🎤 Create an speech audio file from the script using Joanna's voice:

```python
response = aflr.Speech().create(scriptId=script["scriptId"], voice="Joanna")
print(response)
```

🎧 Now let's master the speech file with high quality and a nice background track.

```python
response = aflr.Mastering().create(
	scriptId=script.get("scriptId"),
	backgroundTrackId="full__citynights.wav"
	)
print(response)
```

🎉 Finally, get the urls of the audio files generated:

```python
urls = aflr.Mastering().retrieve(scriptId=script["scriptId"])
print(urls)
```

Or download the files in your current folder:

```python
filepath = aflr.Mastering().download(scriptId=script["scriptId"], destination=".")
print(filepath)
```

Easy right? 🔮 This is the `hello.py` final picture:

```python
import aflr
aflr.api_key = "your-key"

# script creation
script = aflr.Script().create(scriptText="Hello world", scriptName="hello")

# speech creation
response = aflr.Speech().create(scriptId=script["scriptId"], voice="Joanna")
print(response)

# mastering process
response = aflr.Mastering().create(
	scriptId=script.get("scriptId"),
	backgroundTrackId="full__citynights.wav"
	)
print(response)

# get url of audio tracks generated
urls = aflr.Mastering().retrieve(scriptId=script["scriptId"])
print(urls)

# or download
filepath = aflr.Mastering().download(scriptId=script["scriptId"], destination=".")
print(filepath)
```

Now let's run the code:

```sh
python hello.py
```

Once completed, check the files in the `hello.py` root folder - you will see a new audio file. Play it!

## 📑 Documentation <a name = "documentation"></a>

### Import <a name = "import"></a>

```python
import aflr
```

### Authentication <a name = "authentication"></a>

The library needs to be configured with your account's secret key which is available in your [Aflorithmic Dashboard](https://console.api.audio). Set `aflr.api_key` with the api-key you got from the dashboard:

```python
aflr.api_key = "your-key"
```

### Authentication with environment variable (recommended) <a name = "authentication_env"></a>

You can also authenticate using `aflr_key` environment variable and the aflr SDK will automatically use it. To setup, open the terminal and type:

```sh
export aflr_key=<your-key>
```

If you provide both environment variable and `aflr.api_key` authentication, the `aflr.api_key` will be used.

### Resource Usage <a name = "resource"> </a>

There are two approaches to use the resources.
First approach is to get the resource class first, then use resource methods. For example, to create a `Script`, we could do:

```python
Script = aflr.Script()
Script.create()
```

The second approach is to use it directly:

```python
aflr.Script().create()
```

Same logic applies for other resources (`speech`, `voice`, `sound`...)

### `Script` resource <a name = "script"> </a>

The Script resource/class allows you to create, retrieve and list scripts. Learn more about scripts [here](https://docs.api.audio/docs/script-2).

Script methods are:

- `create()` - Create a new script.
  - Parameters:
    - `scriptText` \* [Required] (string) - Text for your script. A script can contain multiple sections and SSML tags. Learn more about scriptText details [here](https://docs.api.audio/docs/script-2)
