The espeak-ng sources contain the code for the Android™ port of the application. |
|
|
|
This is published as the [eSpeak for Android](http://reecedunn.co.uk/espeak-for-android) |
|
|
|
program on the Google Play store. It is based on the eyes-free port of eSpeak |
|
|
|
to the Android platform. This code was originally maintained in a separate |
|
|
|
branch when the repository tracked eSpeak releases. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Dependencies |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to build the Android APK file, you need: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. the [Android SDK](http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html) with API 21 support; |
|
|
|
2. the [Android NDK](http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html); |
|
|
|
3. Gradle 2.1 or later. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to use Android Studio, you will also need: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. [Android Studio](http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio.html). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Building with Gradle |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Set the location of the Android SDK: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ export ANDROID_HOME=<path-to-the-android-sdk> |
|
|
|
2. Build the project: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ./autogen.sh |
|
|
|
$ ./configure --with-gradle=<path-to-gradle> |
|
|
|
$ make apk-release |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will create an `android/build/outputs/apk/espeak-release-unsigned.apk` file. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Signing the APK |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to install the built APK you need to self-sign the package. You can do |
|
|
|
this by: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Creating a certificate, if you do not already have one: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ keytool -genkey -keystore [YOUR_CERTIFICATE] -alias [ALIAS] |
|
|
|
2. Sign the package using your certificate: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ jarsigner -sigalg MD5withRSA -digestalg SHA1 \ |
|
|
|
-keystore [YOUR_CERTIFICATE] \ |
|
|
|
android/build/outputs/apk/espeak-release-unsigned.apk [ALIAS] |
|
|
|
3. Align the apk using the zipalign tool. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ zipalign 4 android/build/outputs/apk/espeak-release-unsigned.apk \ |
|
|
|
android/build/outputs/apk/espeak-release-signed.apk |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Installing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now, you can install the APK using the `adb` tool: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ adb install -r android/build/outputs/apk/espeak-release-signed.apk |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After running, `eSpeakActivity` will extract the `espeakdata.zip` file into its |
|
|
|
own data directory to set up the available voices. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To enable eSpeak, you need to: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. go into the Android `Text-to-Speech settings` UI; |
|
|
|
2. enable `eSpeak TTS` in the `Engines` section; |
|
|
|
3. select `eSpeak TTS` as the default engine; |
|
|
|
4. use the `Listen to an example` option to check if everything is working. |
