Is this suitable for supporting google speech API?

Open MarkEdmondson1234 opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Hello! I just found this whilst looking for solutions to stream Google Speech API transcriptions from/to R, since the docs state that this is only available through RPC

https://cloud.google.com/speech/docs/streaming-recognize

Would this library be able to support that yet? If so is there any reference I can look at to start giving it a go?

Streaming services aren't implemented yet, but I've been working on it on the server side. Also IDK if you need authentication, which is also not implemented yet.

Is this the specific service you want to use? https://github.com/googleapis/googleapis/blob/master/google/cloud/speech/v1beta1/cloud_speech.proto

It looks like there's a non-streaming option - you might give that a try. There's a couple example clients in the demo/ folder that you could adapt.

Thanks @nfultz - I have a non-streaming solution using the JSON API, I guess it wouldn't hold any advantage over that? Also would need authentication, yes. I guess I'll wait a bit for this library to mature, but thanks for pointing me to the .proto object, I guess that is the start.
