使用谷歌Chrome瀏覽器Web Speech API進行文字轉語音轉換
如今,有聲讀物比閱讀書籍更受讀者歡迎,因為他們可以在做任何事情的同時透過收聽獲取知識。此外,一些網站會在每篇文章中新增音訊,因此如果使用者不想閱讀文章,他們可以收聽。
要將普通文字轉換為語音,我們需要使用谷歌Chrome瀏覽器的Web Speech API。在本教程中,我們將學習如何使用谷歌Chrome瀏覽器的Web Speech API將文字轉換為語音。
語法
使用者可以按照以下語法使用谷歌Chrome瀏覽器的Web Speech API進行文字轉語音轉換。
var synth = window.speechSynthesis; var speechOBj = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance(text); synth.speak(speechOBj);
在上述語法中,我們初始化了SpeechSynthesisUtterance()物件,並將要朗讀的文字作為引數傳遞。之後,我們使用了speak()方法來朗讀文字。
示例1
下面的示例演示了谷歌Chrome瀏覽器Web Speech API將文字轉換為語音的基本用法。我們使用了HTML的“textarea”標籤來獲取使用者的文字輸入。
在JavaScript中,我們從“textarea”輸入欄位訪問文字。之後,每當使用者點選提交按鈕時,我們使用“textarea”輸入欄位的文字值初始化SpeechSynthesisUtterance的新物件。此外,我們使用speak()方法將文字轉換為語音,使用者可以在輸出中觀察到。
<html> <body> <h3>Text to voice conversion using the Web speech API of Google Chrome</h3> <div class = "container"> <textarea name = "text" id = "text" cols = "30" rows = "10"> Add text to Speak. </textarea> <br> <br> <button id = "speak"> Speak Text </button> </div> <script> // Writing a javascript code to use web speech api to text to voice conversion var synth = window.speechSynthesis; var speak = document.getElementById("speak"); speak.addEventListener("click", () => { var text = document.getElementById("text").value; var speechOBj = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance(text); synth.speak(speechOBj); }); </script> </body> </html>
示例2
下面的示例演示了谷歌Chrome瀏覽器Web Speech API的高階用法。在這裡,每當使用者點選按鈕時,它都會呼叫textToVoice()函式,該函式將文字轉換為語音。此外,它還會向語音新增速率和音調值。
此外,setVoices()函式在下拉選單選項中設定所有可用的不同區域的語音。使用者可以選擇下拉選單中的任何語音並更改語音。
接下來,我們添加了恢復、暫停和取消按鈕來執行相應的操作。
