SpeechRecognition 3.4.1

Version 3.4.1

on Python PyPI

Changes:

• BREAKING CHANGE: AT&T STT API IS BEING SHUT DOWN SOON. (source)
  • For now, the recognize_att function will keep working, until the API itself is shut down.
  • It is best to transition over to IBM, Wit.ai, Google, CMU Sphinx, Bing Voice, or api.ai as soon as possible.
  • In most cases, you can simply rename recognize_att to a different service like recognize_ibm, then generate new API keys/tokens for it.
• DEPRECATED CLASS: WavFile has been renamed to AudioFile.
  • WavFile will continue to work for the foreseeable future. New code should use AudioFile.
  • AudioFile is the same as WavFile, but in addition to WAV, it also supports AIFF and FLAC files!
• New api.ai support, courtesy of @sbraden! See recognize_api in the library reference.
• New Microsoft Bing Voice Recognition API support! See recognize_bing in the library reference.
• Support for 8-bit unsigned WAV audio (thanks to @zhaoqf123 for reporting!).
• Faster, upgraded FLAC binaries, with Linux binaries using Holy Build Box for maximum distro compatibility..
• Updated setup process for Wit.ai.
• Update phrase retrieval for recognize_ibm, courtesy of Bhavik Shah from IBM.
• Documentation improvements and code cleanup.
• Clearer licensing information - see the README.

As always, you can upgrade with pip install --upgrade speechrecognition.
