Coqui R package with Docker #32

Open howardbaik opened 1 year ago

howardbaik commented 1 year ago

An idea from @seankross :

Move all the Coqui TTS functionality into a separate R package, create a Docker image with Coqui TTS installed, and call tts_coqui() on the Docker image. Not sure if I described this correctly, but that's the general idea.

The R package would be called roqui 😄

Thank you for sharing! I'll take a look at this.

I think that the coqui functionality of text2speech would be used by users who have successfully downloaded coqui tts. For those without coqui tts on their systems, we could direct them to this R package + docker combination.

Another reason to have a standalone Coqui R package: it would be cool to do speech-to-text in R too.

I looked quickly at Coqui STT, and it looks like they are no longer actively maintaining it, but do have a command line client.
