Text to Speech

fernandomello · March 7, 2017, 8:36pm

Hello I’m new to Ionic and I’m studying version 2. I’m trying to use the Speech component but I’m not having success.

I’m using the link: http://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/native/texttospeech/

good…
What I’ve done and I’ve failed so far.
I created a blank project. I added the plugin through the command line
$ ionic plugin add cordova-plugin-tts

Then I went to the initial page of the project and added the items listed in the reference page

code:
import { Component } from ‘@angular/core’;
import { NavController } from ‘ionic-angular’;
import {TextToSpeech} from ‘ionic-native’;

@Component({
selector: ‘page-home’,
templateUrl: ‘home.html’
})
export class HomePage {

constructor(public navCtrl: NavController) {

}

ionViewDidEnter()
{

TextToSpeech.speak('Hello World')
.then(() => console.log('Success'))
.catch((reason: any) => console.log(reason));
console.log("Hello World");

}
}

I tried to run the product from that in the browser, IOS emulator and ionicView. In none of the tests did I succeed. Could someone help me?

Thank you

What’s in the console? Errors? Anything?

So that means then text to speech never ran. You should probably wrap that in a platform ready. Also, strange that it would say cordova not found in the browser console when running it in an emulator. Cordova should be available when running in an emulator. That sounds like a problem.
