Please install visual studio first.

[mlcatinit]

I am running command prompt terminal in Visual Studio Code

[csukuangfj]

Visual studio code is not visual studio.

Please install visual studio first. You can install a community edition, which is free.

[mlcatinit]

I have installed Visual Studio but still getting the same error. Should I install something specific in Visual Studio? Should I install Cmake from Visual Studio?

[csukuangfj]

Please activate the visual studio developer command prompt. It is different from cmd.

[mlcatinit]

C:\Users\Fawaz Shaik\K2\sherpa-onnx\build>cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. 'cmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I get this as result in Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt

[csukuangfj]

Then, please install cmake.

The easiest way might be

pip install cmake

[mlcatinit]

Getting this when I try installing (base) C:\Users\Fawaz Shaik\source\repos>pip install cmake Requirement already satisfied: cmake in c:\users\fawaz shaik\appdata\roaming\python\python310\site-packages (3.26.4)

and when I try running the command:

in CMakeOutput.log I get this The system is: Windows - 10.0.22621 - AMD64

Could you describe how you start the terminal?

From the output of cmake --help, please do the following

1. Delete the build directory
2. re-create the build directory

   cd build
   cmake -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

[mlcatinit]

I get this output

How did you install visual studio?

The error logs show that you have not installed or configured visual studio correctly.

We have a video demo for installing sherpa-ncnn on windows. Even if it is made for sherpa-ncnn, you can also use it for sherpa-onnx. https://k2-fsa.github.io/sherpa/ncnn/install/videos.html

[mlcatinit]

I think after seeing the video that I had to download extra C++ stuff, I will do that and check again. Thanks!

[mlcatinit]

I finally got it to work, but when trying one of the streaming models from https://k2-fsa.github.io/sherpa/onnx/pretrained_models/online-transducer/zipformer-transducer-models.html#csukuangfj-sherpa-onnx-streaming-zipformer-bilingual-zh-en-2023-02-20-bilingual-chinese-english I get this error

[csukuangfj]

For windows, you can remove GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 and just run

git clone https://huggingface.co/csukuangfj/sherpa-onnx-streaming-zipformer-bilingual-zh-en-2023-02-20

We need to update the doc to mention that.

[mlcatinit]

Okay thanks

ls -lh doesnt work in windows

and when i Try running the command for micriphone

Real-time speech recognition from a microphone cd /path/to/sherpa-onnx

I get a warning for pasting multuple lines of text

Could you post screenshots?

1. Please remove \ and put all commands in a single line

2. Please read the documentation carefully. For windows the doc has explicitly documented which executable to use.

Hello, I read the documentation and the python code worked for me. In https://k2-fsa.github.io/sherpa/onnx/pretrained_models/online-transducer/lstm-transducer-models.html I have added ./build/bin/Release/sherpa-onnx.exe before the code ./build/bin/sherpa-onnx-microphone ./sherpa-onnx-lstm-en-2023-02-17/tokens.txt ./sherpa-onnx-lstm-en-2023-02-17/encoder-epoch-99-avg-1.onnx ./sherpa-onnx-lstm-en-2023-02-17/decoder-epoch-99-avg-1.onnx ./sherpa-onnx-lstm-en-2023-02-17/joiner-epoch-99-avg-1.onnx but it still doesnt run it gives:

[csukuangfj]

What is the output of

./build/bin/Release/sherpa-onnx-microphone.exe ./sherpa-onnx-lstm-en-2023-02-17/tokens.txt ./sherpa-onnx-lstm-en-2023-02-17/encoder-epoch-99-avg-1.onnx ./sherpa-onnx-lstm-en-2023-02-17/decoder-epoch-99-avg-1.onnx ./sherpa-onnx-lstm-en-2023-02-17/joiner-epoch-99-avg-1.onnx

[mlcatinit]

I get this output

Is it because this is in C? I am well aware of python but not experienced in C apologies

Are you able to locate the generated exe?

Have you managed to run it?
