Ooh Buddy!!!
I have been running any given flavor of PiaF for close to 10 years (I think). In the past, when I need to spin up a server, or rebuild my current installation; I come grab the latest and greatest, follow its Tut, and off I go.
But its been awhile since I needed to modify our PBX, and after a recent hack, I am in the midst of a rebuild again. (Probably because I completely left the PBX alone for multiple years, oops).
Now there is PiaF 3 or 5 or different colors, or xivo, or 11 through 13. My head spins trying to grasp the spinoffs. Well, I gave Wazo a try, and quickly decided it was going to take to much time to invest to bring myself up to speed with its differences (im not a PBX admin, but a wireless ISP admin). So, I spun up an Incredible PiaF 12, and have it up and running to our needs again.
Finally, on to my question. I have a python script that I made that uses the googletts-agi, which I believe is now dead. The script curl's a page on our website that has our latest tweet (our current network status) and then feeds it to googletts. This was great when it worked. We could update our twitter, and customers could see our network outage status there, or on our website, or read to them when calling in for technical support.
So, now that googletts-agi is dead, and most of the new tts work (IBM and Amazon) has tutorials for only Wazo, whats a simple PiaF dabbler like myself todo?
Ideally, I would like to simply replace the google portion of my python script with IBM (or any nice tts that is). Flite will not do, its just too hard for a majority of our customers to understand it (tried and had had awful feedback).
I would VERY much appreciate some guidance here. Thanks a ton in advance!
Cheers!
