[FR] Add Piper to TTS_say_Message Blueprint

[fisch55]

Hi, is it possible to integrate Piper in your great BluePrint?

Graetz!

[SirGoodenough]

I have not set up any of the local voice stuff. Seeing it's the year of the voice, I should probably do this. No promises, but I will look into it. Which blueprint would you like me to start with?

[fisch55]

I would say you should start with TTS_say_Message Blueprint ! It‘s great

[SirGoodenough]

Want to test this, see if it works? Never used Piper before and some of this was a guess...

IE leaving language and voice empty and hoping it picks up user defaults.

[fisch55]

THX! But I can't choose Text to Speech Processor Required on ALL *_say platforms PIPER?!

[SirGoodenough]

Oops, try that

I don't have the voice or the language working yet, but that should put out your defaults .

[fisch55]

actually it does not work

[SirGoodenough]

I had several versions pushed up, some were ok, others not. Don't know which you got... The one up there now should be the working beta, download it again & try it out.

Name should read:

  name: TTS_say_Message-2023-09-29-beta-2

[SirGoodenough]

I also made this one that was nabu-casa only before also do Piper...

https://github.com/SirGoodenough/HA_Blueprints/blob/Piper_tts_All_Message_Script/Automations/door_open_tts_cloud_say_announcer_nabu_casa_required.yaml

[SirGoodenough]

Probably going to release this in a day or 2. If you see any Bugs, please let me know.

[fisch55]

Thx , I‘ll try it later 👍

[fisch55]

Cool it works locally with piper !!! THX
