parlez

parlez is a Discord bot for generating text-to-speech.

How to use

The recommended way to use this project is to:

1. Clone it with git
2. Add the voice clips in the robot/voices directory, the procedure is the same as tortoise-tts
3. Create an application->bot on the Discord interface, and add the bot token to config.ini
4. While you're at it, modify the parameters in config.ini to suit your needs
5. Run as a container with docker-compose:

   docker-compose up -d --build

Limitations

The default TTS generation is based on tortoise-tts, an open-source multi-voice text-to-speech engine.

It shouldn't be too hard to switch it with another TTS engine if necessary: feel free to fork this repo or submit a pull request!
