Quick Start
Setup
Download and install Go.
Install the Leopard Go Package using the Go CLI:
go get github.com/Picovoice/leopard/binding/go
Usage
Create an instance of the Leopard engine:
import . "github.com/Picovoice/leopard/binding/go"leopard = Leopard{AccessKey: "${ACCESS_KEY}"} // AccessKey provided by Picovoice Console (https://console.picovoice.ai/)err := leopard.Init()if err != nil {// handle err init}defer leopard.Delete()
Transcribe an audio file:
transcription, err := leopard.ProcessFile("${AUDIO_FILE_PATH}")if err != nil {// handle process error}
When done be sure to explicitly release the resources using leopard.Delete().
Demo
For the Leopard Go SDK, we offer demo applications that demonstrate how to use the Speech-to-Text engine on audio files.
Setup
Clone the Leopard repository from GitHub using HTTPS:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/Picovoice/leopard.git
