cc.journeyman.speechio.listen
A consistent interface for things which listen, in order that we can plug and unplug them easily.
This is not yet quite right; rather than listening to an entire stream and delivering one monolithic string at the end of it, we need to output a lazy sequence of sentence-like strings, which we can delimit by pauses in the speech, which (at least with the vosk listener) we can already detect.
*listener-fn*
dynamic
The function which we will use to listen for speech on streams. The idea here is that a listener function is a function of one argument, an input stream with audio data, which returns as a string any text detected. This should make listeners pluggable. This is the socket into which pluggable listeners are plugged.
listen
(listen stream function)(listen stream)Listen on this stream using this funtction (or the value of *listener-fn*, if no function supplied) and return, as text, any speech recognised. NOTE: idiomatic use should not pass the function argument explicitly, but should instead bind *listener-fn*.
