## Windows |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Binaries |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Windows version of eSpeak NG 1.49.2 is available as: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [espeak-ng-x64.msi](https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng/releases/download/1.49.2/espeak-ng-x64.msi) -- |
|
|
|
64-bit Windows installer |
|
|
|
* [espeak-ng-x86.msi](https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng/releases/download/1.49.2/espeak-ng-x86.msi) -- |
|
|
|
32-bit Windows installer |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You also need to install the [Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
__NOTE:__ SAPI 5 voices are not currently available in this release of eSpeak NG. |
|
|
|
There is an [issue](https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng/issues/7) to track |
|
|
|
support for this feature. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Building |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build eSpeak NG on Windows, you will need: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. a copy of Visual Studio 2013 or later, such as the Community Edition; |
|
|
|
2. the Windows 8.1 SDK; |
|
|
|
3. the [WiX installer](http://wixtoolset.org) plugin; |
|
|
|
4. the [pcaudiolib](https://github.com/espeak-ng/pcaudiolib) project checked out to |
|
|
|
`src` (as `src/pcaudiolib`). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can then open and build the `src/windows/espeak-ng.sln` solution in Visual |
|
|
|
Studio. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also use the Visual Studio tools to build espeak-ng with `msbuild` from |
|
|
|
the `src/windows` directory: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
msbuild espeak-ng.sln |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build with a specific version of Visual Studio, you need to use: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
msbuild /p:PlatformToolset=v120 espeak-ng.sln |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
replacing `v120` with the appropriate value for the target Visual Studio version: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| PlatformToolset | Visual Studio | |
|
|
|
|-----------------|---------------| |
|
|
|
| v120 | 2013 | |
|
|
|
| v140 | 2015 | |
|
|
|
| v141 (default) | 2017 | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Linux, Mac, BSD |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Dependencies |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to build eSpeak NG, you need: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. a functional autotools system (`make`, `autoconf`, `automake`, `libtool` |
|
|
|
and `pkg-config`); |
|
|
|
2. a functional c compiler that supports C99 (e.g. gcc or clang). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optionally, you need: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. the [pcaudiolib](https://github.com/espeak-ng/pcaudiolib) development library |
|
|
|
to enable audio output; |
|
|
|
3. the [sonic](https://github.com/espeak-ng/sonic) development library to |
|
|
|
enable sonic audio speed up support; |
|
|
|
4. the `ronn` man-page markdown processor to build the man pages. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build the documentation, you need: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. the `kramdown` markdown processor. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Debian-based systems such as Debian, Ubuntu and Mint, these dependencies can |
|
|
|
be installed using the following commands: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Dependency | Install | |
|
|
|
|---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------| |
|
|
|
| autotools | `sudo apt-get install make autoconf automake libtool pkg-config` | |
|
|
|
| c99 compiler | `sudo apt-get install gcc` | |
|
|
|
| sonic | `sudo apt-get install libsonic-dev` | |
|
|
|
| ronn | `sudo apt-get install ruby-ronn` | |
|
|
|
| kramdown | `sudo apt-get install ruby-kramdown` | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For recent Debian or Ubuntu >= 18.04 you should also install: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Dependency | Install | |
|
|
|
|---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------| |
|
|
|
| pcaudiolib | `sudo apt-get install libpcaudio-dev` | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Building |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first time you build eSpeak NG, or when you want to change how to build |
|
|
|
eSpeak NG, you need to run the following standard autotools commands: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./autogen.sh |
|
|
|
./configure --prefix=/usr |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
__NOTE:__ The `--prefix` option above will install the files to the `/usr` |
|
|
|
directory, instead of the default `/usr/local` location. You can use other |
|
|
|
standard `configure` options to control the output. For more information, |
|
|
|
you can run: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --help |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use a different compiler, or compiler flags, you can specify these before |
|
|
|
the `configure` command. For example: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CC=clang-3.5 CFLAGS=-Wextra ./configure --prefix=/usr |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `espeak-ng` and `speak-ng` programs, along with the espeak-ng voices, can |
|
|
|
then be built with: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
__NOTE:__ Building the voice data does not work when using the `-jN` option. |
|
|
|
If you want to use that option, you can run: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make -j8 src/espeak-ng src/speak-ng |
|
|
|
make |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The documentation can be built by running: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make docs |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specific languages can be compiled by running: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make LANG |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
where `LANG` is the language code of the given language. More information can |
|
|
|
be found in the [Adding or Improving a Language](docs/add_language.md) |
|
|
|
documentation. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Cross Compilation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because the eSpeak NG build process uses the built program to compile the |
|
|
|
language and voice data, you need to build it locally first. Once you have |
|
|
|
built it locally you can perform the cross compilation using: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --build=... --host=... --target=... |
|
|
|
make -B src/espeak-ng src/speak-ng |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Sanitizer Flag Configuration |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to build eSpeak NG with the gcc or clang sanitizer by passing |
|
|
|
the appropriate `CFLAGS` and `LDFLAGS` options to `configure`. For example: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address,undefined -g" \ |
|
|
|
LDFLAGS="-fsanitize=address,undefined" \ |
|
|
|
CC=clang-6.0 ./configure |
|
|
|
make |
|
|
|
make check |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
__NOTE:__ The `-fsanitize=fuzzer` option does not work when using the above |
|
|
|
configuration method. This is because `clang` will use the `libFuzzer` library |
|
|
|
which defines its own `main` and requires `LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput` to be |
|
|
|
defined. This breaks the autoconf check to see if the C compiler works. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### LLVM Fuzzer Support |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To enable libFuzzer support you need clang 6.0 or later. It is enabled with |
|
|
|
the following: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CC=clang-6.0 ./configure --with-libfuzzer=yes |
|
|
|
make |
|
|
|
make check |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### eSpeak NG Feature Configuration |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following `configure` options control which eSpeak NG features are enabled: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Option | Description | Default | |
|
|
|
|-----------------|----------------------------------------------|---------| |
|
|
|
| `--with-klatt` | Enable Klatt formant synthesis. | yes | |
|
|
|
| `--with-mbrola` | Enable MBROLA voice support. | yes | |
|
|
|
| `--with-sonic` | Use the sonic library to support higher WPM. | yes | |
|
|
|
| `--with-async` | Enable asynchronous commands. | yes | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
__NOTE:__ The `--with-sonic` option requires that the sonic library and header |
|
|
|
is accessible on the system. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Extended Dictionary Configuration |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following `configure` options control which of the extended dictionary files |
|
|
|
to build: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Option | Extended Dictionary | Default | |
|
|
|
|----------------------|---------------------|---------| |
|
|
|
| `--with-extdict-ru` | Russian | no | |
|
|
|
| `--with-extdict-zh` | Mandarin Chinese | no | |
|
|
|
| `--with-extdict-zhy` | Cantonese | no | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The extended dictionaries are taken from |
|
|
|
[http://espeak.sourceforge.net/data/](http://espeak.sourceforge.net/data/) and |
|
|
|
provide better coverage for those languages, while increasing the resulting |
|
|
|
dictionary size. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Testing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before installing, you can test the built espeak-ng using the following command |
|
|
|
from the top-level directory of this project: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ESPEAK_DATA_PATH=`pwd` LD_LIBRARY_PATH=src:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} src/espeak-ng ... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `ESPEAK_DATA_PATH` variable needs to be set to use the espeak-ng data from |
|
|
|
the source tree. Otherwise, espeak-ng will look in `$(HOME)` or |
|
|
|
`/usr/share/espeak-ng-data`. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` is set as `espeak` uses the `libespeak-ng.so` shared |
|
|
|
library. This ensures that `espeak` uses the built shared library in the |
|
|
|
`src` directory and not the one on the system (which could be an older |
|
|
|
version). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Installing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can install eSpeak NG by running the following command: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sudo make LIBDIR=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu install |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
__NOTE:__ The `LIBDIR` path may be different to the one on your system (the |
|
|
|
above is for 64-bit Debian/Ubuntu releases that use the multi-arch package |
|
|
|
structure -- that is, Debian Wheezy or later). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can find out where espeak-ng is installed to on your system if you |
|
|
|
already have an espeak-ng install by running: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
find /usr/lib | grep libespeak-ng |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Android |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div align="right"><a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.reecedunn.espeak" title="eSpeak for Android on Google Play"><img src="https://developer.android.com/images/brand/en_app_rgb_wo_45.png"/></a></div> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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 Studio](https://developer.android.com/studio/) with API 26 support; |
|
|
|
2. the [Android NDK](http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html); |
|
|
|
3. Gradle 3.2.1 or later. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Building with Gradle |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Set the location of the Android SDK: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ export ANDROID_HOME=<path-to-the-android-sdk> |
|
|
|
(where `<path-to-the-android-sdk>` is your actual path of SDK folder e.g. `/home/user/Android/Sdk`) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Add location of NDK to the PATH variable: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ export PATH=$PATH:<path-to-the-android-ndk> |
|
|
|
(where `<path-to-the-android-ndk>` is your actual path of NDK folder, e.g. `/home/user/Android/Ndk`) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Configure the project: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ ./autogen.sh |
|
|
|
$ ./configure --with-gradle=<path-to-gradle> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Check that log shows following lines: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
... |
|
|
|
gradle (Android): gradle |
|
|
|
ndk-build (Android): yes |
|
|
|
... |
|
|
|
`<path-to-gradle>` may be just `gradle` if it is found in your path by simple name. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Build the project: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ 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] -keyalg RSA -storetype PKCS12 |
|
|
|
2. Sign the package using your certificate: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ jarsigner -sigalg MD5withRSA -digestalg SHA1 \ |
|
|
|
-keystore [YOUR_CERTIFICATE] \ |
|
|
|
android/build/outputs/apk/release/espeak-release-unsigned.apk [ALIAS] |
|
|
|
3. Align the apk using the zipalign tool. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ zipalign 4 android/build/outputs/apk/release/espeak-release-unsigned.apk \ |
|
|
|
android/build/outputs/apk/release/espeak-release-signed.apk |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Opening project in Android Studio |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To open project in **Android Studio** select **Import project (Gradle, Eclipse ADT, etc)** |
|
|
|
and select `android` folder of the `espeak-ng` project. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then select menu **File — Project Structure...**, tab **SDK Location**, field **Android NDK location** |
|
|
|
and set your location of NDK, e.g. `/home/user/Android/Ndk`. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Installing |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now, you can install the APK using the `adb` tool: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ adb install -r android/build/outputs/apk/release/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. |
|
|
|
|
