|
* @interface PlugInConf
|
|
*
|
|
* pluginconf - the KDE Text-to-Speech Deamon Plugin Configuration API.
|
|
*
|
|
* @version 1.0 Draft 2
|
|
*
|
|
* This class defines the interface that plugins to KTTSMGR must implement.
|
|
*
|
|
* @warning The pluginconf interface is still being developed and is likely
|
|
* to change in the future.
|
|
*
|
|
* A KTTSD Plugin interfaces between KTTSD and a speech engine.
|
|
* A PlugInConf provides an on-screen widget for configuring the plugin for use
|
|
* with KTTSD.
|
|
*
|
|
* @section guidelines General Guidelines
|
|
*
|
|
* - The configuration widget should be no larger than TODO pixels.
|
|
* - Do not supply Load, Save, Cancel, or OK buttons. Those are provided by KTTSMGR.
|
|
* - Try to supply a Test button so that users can test the configuration before
|
|
* saving it.
|
|
* - Your configuration widget will be running inside a KPart.
|
|
* - Whenever the user changes something in your on-screen widget, emit the
|
|
* @ref changed signal.
|
|
* - If a plugin can automatically configure itself, i.e., locate voice files,
|
|
* set default values, etc., it should do so when it is first added to KTTSMGR.
|
|
*
|
|
* @section multiinstance Multiple Instances
|
|
*
|
|
* If it is possible to run multiple simultaneous instances of your synthesis engine,
|
|
* return True from the @ref supportsMultiInstance method. The user will be able to
|
|
* configure multiple instances of your plugin, each with a different set of
|
|
* talker attributes.
|
|
*
|
|
* If you cannot run multiple simultaneous instances of your synthesis engine,
|
|
* or your plugin has a fixed set of talker attributes (only one language, voice,
|
|
* gender, volume, and speed), return False from @ref supportsMultiInstance.
|
|
*
|
|
* @section language Language Support
|
|
*
|
|
* Some plugins support only one language. For them, return the appropriate language
|
|
* code when @ref getSupportedLanguages is called.
|
|
*
|
|
* If your plugin can support multiple languages, your task is a little more
|
|
* complicated. The best way to handle this is to install a @e voices file with
|
|
* your plugin that lists all the supported languages, voice files, genders, etc.
|
|
* that are possible. When your plugin is added to KTTSMGR,
|
|
* @ref getSupportedLanguages will be called. Return a list of all the possible
|
|
* languages supported, even if the user hasn't yet picked a voice file in your
|
|
* configuration, or even told your where the voice files are.
|
|
*
|
|
* There are three ways that users and applications pick a language code for your
|
|
* plugin:
|
|
* - The user picks a code from among the languages you returned in
|
|
* @ref getSupportedLanguages, or
|
|
* - The user picks your plugin and uses your configuration widget to pick a voice
|
|
* file or other configuration option that determines the language, or
|
|
* - An application requests a plugin with specific language support.
|
|
*
|
|
* If possible, avoid making the user pick a language code in your plugin.
|
|
*
|
|
* In the first and third cases, the chosen language code will be passed to your
|
|
* plugin when @ref setDesiredLanguage is called. If you can satisfy this
|
|
* language code, good, but it is possible that once the user has begun
|
|
* configuring your plugin, you find that you cannot support the desired
|
|
* language. Perhaps a needed voice file is missing. That is OK.
|
|
* You'll inform KTTSMGR of the actual language code when KTTSMGR
|
|
* calls @ref getTalkerCode (see below). Note that you should not limit the
|
|
* users choices based on the @ref setDesiredLanguage. A user might start
|
|
* out configuring your plugin for one language, and then change his or her
|
|
* mind to a different language.
|
|
*
|
|
* Also note that language codes may also include an appended country code.
|
|
* For example, "en_GB" for British English. When @ref getSupportedLanguages is
|
|
* called, you should return as specific a list as possible. For example,
|
|
* if your plugin supports both American and British English, your returned
|
|
* list would include "en_GB" and "en_US". When @ref setDesiredLanguage is
|
|
* called, a country code may or may not be included. If included and your
|
|
* plugin supports the language, but not the specific country variant,
|
|
* your plugin should nevertheless attempt to satisfy the request, returning
|
|
* the actual supported language and country when @ref getTalkerCode is called.
|
|
*
|
|
* @section talkercodes Talker Codes
|
|
*
|
|
* Review the section on Talkers in kspeech.h.
|
|
*
|
|
* When your plugin is added to the KTTSMGR, @ref getSupportedLanguages
|
|
* will be called followed by @ref setDesiredLanguage and @ref load.
|
|
* Note that the configuration file will most likely be empty when
|
|
* @ref load is called.
|
|
|
|
* Next, @ref getTalkerCode
|
|
* will be called. If your plugin can automatically configure itself to the desired
|
|
* language, it should do so and return a fully-specified talker code. If your
|
|
* plugin is not yet ready and requires user help, return TQString(). Note that
|
|
* @ref setDesiredLanguage may be Null, in which case, you should allow the
|
|
* user to configure your plugin to any of your supported languages.
|
|
*
|
|
* When your plugin has been configured enough to begin synthesis, return a
|
|
* fully-specified talker code in @ref getTalkerCode().
|
|
*
|
|
* Here is guidance for what you should return for each of the talker attributes
|
|
* when @ref getTalkerCode is called:
|
|
*
|
|
* - @e lang. If user has completed configuring your plugin, i.e., it is
|
|
* ready to begin synthesizing, return the ISO 639-1 language code
|
|
* for the language it can synthesize. If your plugin is not yet
|
|
* fully configured, you should return TQString() for the entire
|
|
* talker code. If your plugin supports a specific national version
|
|
* of a language, that should also be included using the ISO 3166
|
|
* country code separated from the language code by underscore (_).
|
|
* For example, if your plugin synthesizes American English, you would
|
|
* return "en_US". If British English, "en_BR". And if
|
|
* non-specific English, just "en".
|
|
* - @e synthesizer. The name of your plugin. Keep short, but long enough to
|
|
* distinquish different implementations. For example,
|
|
* Festival Int, Flite, Hadifix. Use only letters, numbers
|
|
* spaces, and underscores (_) in your plugin name.
|
|
* - @e gender. May be "male", "female", or "neutral".
|
|
* - @e name. The voice code. If your plugin does not support voices,
|
|
* return "fixed".
|
|
* - @e volume. May be "medium", "loud", or "soft". If your plugin does not support
|
|
* configurable volume, return "medium".
|
|
* - @e rate. May be "medium", "fast", or "slow". If your plugin does not support
|
|
* configurable speed, return "medium".
|
|
*
|
|
* The order of the attributes you return does not matter. Here is an example of
|
|
* a fully-specified talker code.
|
|
*
|
|
* lang="en" name="Kal" gender="male" volume="soft" rate="fast"
|
|
* synthesizer="Festival Interactive"
|
|
*
|
|
* Do not return translated values for the Talker Code attributes. All English.
|
|
*
|
|
* Each time your plugin emits the @ref changed signal, @ref getTalkerCode will be called.
|
|
* The configuration dialog OK button will be disabled until you return a non-null
|
|
* Talker Code.
|
|
*
|
|
* It is possible that your plugin does not know the language supported. The generic
|
|
* Command plugin is example of such a case, since the user enters an arbitrary command.
|
|
* In this case, return the value from the @ref setDesiredLanguage call. It is possible
|
|
* that @ref setDesiredLanguage is Null. That is OK. In this case, KTTSMGR will prompt
|
|
* the user for the language code.
|
|
*
|
|
* @section loadandsavemethods Load and Save Methods
|
|
*
|
|
* The @ref load and @ref save methods are called by KTTSMGR so that your plugin
|
|
* can load and save configuration options from the configuration file.
|
|
* These methods have two parameters, a @e config object and a @e configGroup string.
|
|
*
|
|
* Plugins that do not support multiple instances (return False from
|
|
* @ref supportsMultiInstance), should simply call config->setGroup(configGroup)
|
|
* before loading or saving their configuration.
|
|
*
|
|
* If your plugin supports multiple instances, it is slightly more complicated.
|
|
* Typically, there will be configuration options that apply to all instances
|
|
* of the plugin and there will be options that apply only to the specific
|
|
* configured instance of the plugin. To load or save the instance-specific
|
|
* options, call config->setGroup(configGroup). For options that apply
|
|
* to all instances of the plugin, call config->setGroup() with a group name
|
|
* that contains your plugin's name. For example,
|
|
* config->setGroup("Festival Defaults").
|
|
*
|
|
* For example, when first added to KTTSMGR, the Festival plugin needs to know the path to
|
|
* the directory containing all the installed voice files. It is best for a plugin
|
|
* to try to locate these resources automatically, but if it can't find them,
|
|
* when the user has told it where they are, it is a good idea to save this information
|
|
* in the all-instances group. In this way, the next time the plugin
|
|
* is added to KTTSMGR, or another instance is added, it will be able to find them
|
|
* automatically.
|
|
*
|
|
* @ref setDesiredLanguage is always called just prior to @ref load, therefore
|
|
* it is not necessary to save the language code, unless your plugin needs it in
|
|
* order to synthesize speech.
