XZVoice - Developing Text-to-Speech Applications Using Electron, Vue, and Alibaba Cloud

Introduction to XZVoice

XZVoice is a text-to-speech software developed using Electron, Vue.js, ElementUI, and JavaScript. It allows users to convert written text into speech effortlessly by integrating advanced text-to-speech technology from Alibaba Cloud.

Key Features

Easy Integration: Built with a user-friendly interface using popular technologies such as Vue.js and ElementUI.
Powerful Speech Engine: Utilizes the Alibaba Cloud Speech Synthesis engine, known for its high-quality voice output.

Setting Up XZVoice

To effectively use XZVoice, users need to perform a few setup steps. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Configuring the Alibaba Cloud Application Keys

To use the speech synthesis functionality, users must first configure the application with their Alibaba Cloud credentials. This involves setting the AccessKeyId, AccessKeySecret, and appkey. The steps are as follows:

Navigate to the file located at src\views\Convert\api\alibaba.js.

Replace the placeholder values with your actual Alibaba Cloud credentials in the code:

this.AccessKeyId = 'Your Alibaba Cloud AccessKeyId';
this.AccessKeySecret = 'Your Alibaba Cloud AccessKeySecret';
this.appkey = 'Your Alibaba Cloud appkey';

2. Setting Up Online Music

XZVoice allows users to add background music to their speech synthesis projects. Follow these steps to enable this feature:

Find the file at src\views\Convert\SelectMusic.vue.
Within the file, search for the domain http://xxx.xxx.com/ and replace it with your own domain on Qiniu Cloud (a cloud service similar to Amazon S3).
Upload your background music packages to Qiniu Cloud and make sure they are publicly accessible.
A package of background music is available for download here with the password 9r9y.

Packing the Software

Once all configurations are complete, you can package the software for deployment or distribution:

Run the following commands in your terminal:
```
npm i
npm run electron:build
```

This will build the application, preparing it for installation on user systems.
