The plugin now leverages the `sound` plugin for playback, like all other
`tts` plugins now do, instead of an external `media` plugin.
This also removes the need for the `/tts/mimic3/say` endpoint.
- Added `input_format`/`output_format` options to both input and output
audio streams.
- Replaced the previous (confusing) occurrences of `ffmpeg_format` and
`format`.
- Added custom `dtype` option for `sound.play`.
- Added `join` flag (default: false) to `sound.play` to wait for the
playback to finish.
Different versions of the `sounddevice` dependency may or may not return
the `index` parameter when querying the available sound devices.
Thus, the code should be ready for both cases.
The integration was based on my old fork of the AVS service, which is no
longer functional given the changes the the Amazon's backend side.
A new `avs-device-sdk` is now available, but it seems that it requires
lengthy compilation processes which are RaspberryPi-specific.
Further investigation is needed for a new Alexa plugin - see #334.
It hurts to see it go, as I really believed in this project.
But the website of the project went away in 2020, the Github project
hasn't seen any activity since 2021, and the fork that is supposed to be
used as a replacement for training .pmdl models hasn't been updated
since 2021 - and it only supports Python 2 on Ubuntu 16.04 or 18.04.
One day I may dedicate some efforts to bring Snowboy back to life, but
until then it's definitely not in a state where it's usable for a
Platypush integration.
It only existed as a back-compatibility layer with armv6, since there
was no build of the assistant library that worked on Raspberry Pi Zero.
But that API layer has been discontinued by Google and it's no longer
functional, so only the `assistant.google` integration (on x86_64 and
armv7) is currently supported.
After creating the virtual environment, we should add `<VENV_DIR>/bin`
to the `PATH` variable, so any next `python`/`pip` commands will be
executed in the new environment.
Before this fix, `platyvenv`, unlike `platydock`, didn't take into
account any extra before/after installation commands that individual
integrations may instruct to run in their manifest files.
continuous-integration/drone/push Build is passingDetails
- `iputils` should be an explicit system dependency for `ping`.
Some minimal systems (like some Docker images) may not have the `ping`
command installed out of the box.
- `hid` and `marshmallow_dataclass` should be among the auto-mocked
modules.
If an extension is configured and enabled, then the UI will now include
a tick next to its name and the currently loaded configuration in the
`Configuration` tab.
