SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables local, offline text-to-speech synthesis using sherpa-onnx, eliminating cloud dependencies and protecting privacy.

Core Features & Use Cases

Offline TTS: run sherpa-onnx locally without internet access, ensuring privacy and lower latency.
Wrapper-based workflow: use the provided bin/sherpa-onnx-tts wrapper to generate audio from text efficiently.
Easy integration: configure SHERPA_ONNX_RUNTIME_DIR and SHERPA_ONNX_MODEL_DIR to plug into existing automation pipelines.

Quick Start

Download the sherpa-onnx runtime and a voice model, then run the bin/sherpa-onnx-tts wrapper with your text.

FAQPage Schema

How do I run text-to-speech synthesis locally without an internet connection?▼

Local text-to-speech synthesis without internet access is achieved by running the sherpa-onnx runtime offline. This approach eliminates cloud dependencies, ensuring privacy and lower latency for private voice experiments.

What environment variables do I need to configure for offline TTS deployment?▼

Offline TTS deployment requires configuring the SHERPA_ONNX_RUNTIME_DIR and SHERPA_ONNX_MODEL_DIR environment variables. The system verifies these paths and checks that the runtime binary, model, and data files exist before execution.

Can I use local text-to-speech for edge deployments and offline automation?▼

Local text-to-speech is applicable for edge deployments and offline automation where no internet is available. It synthesizes audio locally to protect privacy and avoid cloud processing limits.

How do I generate speech audio from text using a local wrapper?▼

Generate speech audio from text by executing the provided bin/sherpa-onnx-tts wrapper. You must first download the sherpa-onnx runtime and a voice model, then run the wrapper with your text input.

Why does my local TTS execution fail before synthesizing audio?▼

Local TTS execution fails if the required environment variables SHERPA_ONNX_RUNTIME_DIR and SHERPA_ONNX_MODEL_DIR are not set. It also validates that the runtime binary, model, and data files physically exist before execution.
