Full python wrapper for the elevenlabs API.
Python wrapper for the full elevenlabs API.
The main reason is the different approach to playback. By doing playback purely within python instead of piping to an external process, there are a couple of important extra things that can be done, such as:
Just run pip install elevenlabslib
, it's on pypi.
Note: On Linux, you may need to install portaudio. On debian and derivatives, it's sudo apt-get install libportaudio2
, and possibly also sudo apt-get install python3-pyaudio
.
IMPORTANT: The library requires libsndfile v1.1.0
or newer, as that is when mp3 support was introduced. This won't be an issue on Windows, but may be relevant on other platforms. Check the soundfile repo for more information.
For a far more comprehensive example, check example.py or the docs.
Here is a very simple usage sample.
from elevenlabslib import *
user = User("API_KEY")
voice = user.get_voices_by_name_v2("Rachel")[0] # This is a list because multiple voices can have the same name
voice.generate_play_audio_v2("Test.", playbackOptions=PlaybackOptions(runInBackground=False))
for historyItem in user.get_history_items_paginated():
if historyItem.text == "Test.":
# The first items are the newest, so we can stop as soon as we find one.
historyItem.delete()
break
