Goodlord

a streaming voice AI using OpenAI, Deepgram, and ElevenLabs

This project requires Python 3.9 and a few dependencies. Follow the steps below to set up your environment.

Step 1: Create a Conda Environment

First, create a new Conda environment with Python 3.9. You can do this using the following command:

conda create --name goodlord python=3.9

Activate the environment using:

conda activate goodlord

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Next, install the required dependencies. You can do this using the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt

You may also need to install mpv a cross platform media player that we use to stream audio from the text to speech API. On mac os, you can do this with homebrew easily:

brew install mpv

Step 3: Setup Environment Variables

Create a .env.secret file in the project root directory.

cp .env.example .env.secret

Add the following environment variables:

OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=your_elevenlabs_api_key
DEEPGRAM_API_KEY=your_deepgram_api_key
ELEVEN_LABS_VOICE_ID=your_eleven_labs_voice_id

Replace your_openai_api_key, your_elevenlabs_api_key, your_deepgram_api_key, and your_eleven_labs_voice_id with your actual API keys.

Step 4: Run the Code

Finally, you can run the code using the following command:

python main.py

Step 5: Monitor the Output

After running the code, you should see the output in your terminal. If there are any errors, they will also be displayed in the terminal.
