Ghana NLP Python Library

The Ghana NLP API Python Library provides an easy way to integrate local African language technologies into your Python projects. Whether you're looking for translation, speech-to-text (STT), or text-to-speech (TTS), this library makes it simple and intuitive to get started.

Features

• Translation: Translate text between supported African languages (e.g., English to Twi).
• Speech-to-Text (STT): Convert audio files into text.
• Text-to-Speech (TTS): Generate natural-sounding speech from text in local languages.

Installation

You can install the library directly from PyPI:

pip install ghana-nlp

And update to the lastest version

python -m pip install --upgrade ghana-nlp

Usage

Initialize the Library

First, import the library and set your API key:

from ghana_nlp import GhanaNLP

nlp = GhanaNLP(api_key="your_api_key_here")

Translation

Translate from English to Twi:

result = nlp.translate("Hello, how are you?", language_pair="en-tw")
print(result)  # Wo ho te sɛn?

Speech-to-Text (STT)

Convert an audio file (WAV format) to text:

result = nlp.stt("your_audio_file.wav", language="tw")
print(result) 

Text-to-Speech (TTS)

Convert text to speech:

result = nlp.tts("Good morning", lang="tw")
print(result)  # audio binary, write a code to either serve to an audio file or play directly
