RimeTTS

✓ from livekit.plugins.rime import RimeTTS

✗ from livekit.plugins.rime import RimeTTS

Basic usage of RimeTTS to synthesize speech, assuming API key is set in environment.

import asyncio from livekit.plugins.rime import RimeTTS async def main(): tts = RimeTTS( api_key=os.environ.get("RIME_API_KEY", ""), voice_id="test-voice" ) async with tts.synthesize("Hello, world!") as stream: async for chunk in stream: print(chunk.data) asyncio.run(main())

Debug

Known issues

breakingVersion 1.0+ changed the TTS interface to async generator streams. Old synchronous `synthesize()` method removed.

fix

Use `async with tts.synthesize(text) as stream` and iterate over chunks.

affects: <1.0.0

deprecatedThe `voice` parameter in RimeTTS is deprecated in favor of `voice_id`. Passing `voice` will raise a deprecation warning.

fix

Replace `voice="..."` with `voice_id="..."`.

affects: 1.3.0+

gotchaThe Rime API key must be set via environment variable `RIME_API_KEY` or passed in constructor. If neither is found, the plugin fails silently.

fix

Always either set `RIME_API_KEY` env var or provide `api_key` argument.

affects: all
