OpenAITTSConfig

Configuration for the OpenAITTS provider.

Defined in: src/providers/tts/openai/OpenAITTS.ts:75

Configuration for the OpenAITTS provider.

Remarks

Provide either apiKey (for direct API access) or proxyUrl (for server-side proxy). At least one must be set. If both are provided, proxyUrl takes precedence and the API key is not sent to the client.

Example

// Direct API access
const config: OpenAITTSConfig = {
  apiKey: 'sk-xxxxxxxxxxxx',
  model: 'tts-1',
  voice: 'nova',
  responseFormat: 'mp3',
  speed: 1.0,
};

// Via proxy server
const proxyConfig: OpenAITTSConfig = {
  proxyUrl: 'http://localhost:3001/api/proxy/openai',
  model: 'tts-1-hd',
  voice: 'alloy',
};

Properties

PropertyTypeDefault valueDescriptionOverridesInherited fromDefined in
apiKey?stringundefinedAPI key or authentication token for the provider. Remarks For client-side usage, consider using a proxy server to keep API keys secure. The SDK provides Express, Next.js, and Node adapters for this purpose.-TTSProviderConfig.apiKeysrc/core/types/providers.ts:67
authType?"token" | "bearer"Provider-specific (typically 'token' for Deepgram, ignored for REST providers)Authentication type for providers that support multiple auth mechanisms. Remarks Controls how the apiKey is sent to the provider: - 'token' — WebSocket subprotocol ['token', apiKey] or header Authorization: Token <key>. This is the default for Deepgram providers. - 'bearer' — WebSocket subprotocol ['bearer', token] or header Authorization: Bearer <token>. Use this for OAuth tokens or providers that expect Bearer auth. REST/SDK providers (Anthropic, OpenAI) handle auth through their SDK constructors and ignore this field.-TTSProviderConfig.authTypesrc/core/types/providers.ts:111
debug?booleanfalseWhether to enable debug logging for this provider. Remarks When true, the provider emits detailed internal logs. This is separate from the SDK-level LoggingConfig.-TTSProviderConfig.debugsrc/core/types/providers.ts:122
endpoint?stringundefinedCustom endpoint URL to override the provider’s default API endpoint. Remarks Useful for self-hosted instances, proxy servers, or development environments.-TTSProviderConfig.endpointsrc/core/types/providers.ts:75
maxRetries?number3Maximum number of retries for failed API requests.--src/providers/tts/openai/OpenAITTS.ts:125
model?string'tts-1'The TTS model to use. Remarks - 'tts-1' — Optimized for speed and low latency - 'tts-1-hd' — Optimized for audio qualityTTSProviderConfig.model-src/providers/tts/openai/OpenAITTS.ts:85
organizationId?stringundefinedOpenAI organization ID for billing attribution.--src/providers/tts/openai/OpenAITTS.ts:118
outputFormat?stringundefinedOutput audio format identifier. Remarks Provider-specific format string (e.g., 'linear16', 'mp3', 'opus').-TTSProviderConfig.outputFormatsrc/core/types/providers.ts:1088
pitch?numberundefinedPitch adjustment in semitones. Remarks Values from -20 to +20 semitones. Not all providers support pitch adjustment.-TTSProviderConfig.pitchsrc/core/types/providers.ts:1080
proxyUrl?stringundefinedURL of a CompositeVoice proxy server endpoint for this provider. Remarks When set, requests are routed through the proxy which injects the real API key server-side. This keeps API keys out of the browser. For WebSocket providers the HTTP URL is automatically converted to ws(s)://. At least one of apiKey or proxyUrl must be set for providers that require authentication (all except NativeSTT, NativeTTS, and WebLLM). Example proxyUrl: 'http://localhost:3000/api/proxy/deepgram'-TTSProviderConfig.proxyUrlsrc/core/types/providers.ts:93
rate?numberundefinedSpeech rate multiplier. Remarks Values from 0.25 (quarter speed) to 4.0 (quadruple speed), where 1.0 is normal speed. Not all providers support rate adjustment.-TTSProviderConfig.ratesrc/core/types/providers.ts:1072
responseFormat?OpenAITTSFormat'mp3'The audio output format. See OpenAITTSFormat--src/providers/tts/openai/OpenAITTS.ts:101
sampleRate?numberundefinedSample rate for the output audio in Hz. Remarks Common values are 16000, 24000, and 48000. Must match the format capabilities of the chosen voice and model.-TTSProviderConfig.sampleRatesrc/core/types/providers.ts:1097
speed?number1.0Speech speed multiplier. Remarks Accepted range is 0.25 to 4.0, where 1.0 is normal speed.--src/providers/tts/openai/OpenAITTS.ts:111
timeout?numberundefinedRequest timeout in milliseconds. Remarks Applies to HTTP requests (REST providers) and connection establishment (WebSocket providers). Set to 0 for no timeout.-TTSProviderConfig.timeoutsrc/core/types/providers.ts:131
voice?OpenAITTSVoice'alloy'The voice to use for synthesis. See OpenAITTSVoiceTTSProviderConfig.voice-src/providers/tts/openai/OpenAITTS.ts:93
