SynthesisTask

Structure Class

SynthesisTask dataclass

SynthesisTask object that provides information about a speech synthesis task.

Attributes

creation_time class-attribute instance-attribute
creation_time: datetime | None = None

Timestamp for the time the synthesis task was started.

engine class-attribute instance-attribute
engine: Engine | None = None

Specifies the engine (standard, neural, long-form or generative) for Amazon Polly to use when processing input text for speech synthesis. Using a voice that is not supported for the engine selected will result in an error.

language_code class-attribute instance-attribute
language_code: LanguageCode | None = None

Optional language code for a synthesis task. This is only necessary if using a bilingual voice, such as Aditi, which can be used for either Indian English (en-IN) or Hindi (hi-IN).

If a bilingual voice is used and no language code is specified, Amazon Polly uses the default language of the bilingual voice. The default language for any voice is the one returned by the DescribeVoices operation for the LanguageCode parameter. For example, if no language code is specified, Aditi will use Indian English rather than Hindi.

lexicon_names class-attribute instance-attribute
lexicon_names: list[str] | None = None

List of one or more pronunciation lexicon names you want the service to apply during synthesis. Lexicons are applied only if the language of the lexicon is the same as the language of the voice.

output_format class-attribute instance-attribute
output_format: OutputFormat | None = None

The format in which the returned output will be encoded. For audio stream, this will be mp3, ogg_vorbis, ogg_opus, mu-law, a-law, or pcm. For speech marks, this will be json.

output_uri class-attribute instance-attribute
output_uri: str | None = None

Pathway for the output speech file.

request_characters class-attribute instance-attribute
request_characters: int = 0

Number of billable characters synthesized.

sample_rate class-attribute instance-attribute
sample_rate: str | None = None

The audio frequency specified in Hz.

The valid values for mp3 and ogg_vorbis are "8000", "16000", "22050", and "24000". The default value for standard voices is "22050". The default value for neural voices is "24000". The default value for long-form voices is "24000". The default value for generative voices is "24000".

Valid values for pcm are "8000" and "16000" The default value is "16000".

Valid value for ogg_opus is "48000".

Valid value for mu-law and a-law is "8000".

sns_topic_arn class-attribute instance-attribute
sns_topic_arn: str | None = None

ARN for the SNS topic optionally used for providing status notification for a speech synthesis task.

speech_mark_types class-attribute instance-attribute
speech_mark_types: list[SpeechMarkType] | None = None

The type of speech marks returned for the input text.

task_id class-attribute instance-attribute
task_id: str | None = None

The Amazon Polly generated identifier for a speech synthesis task.

task_status class-attribute instance-attribute
task_status: TaskStatus | None = None

Current status of the individual speech synthesis task.

task_status_reason class-attribute instance-attribute
task_status_reason: str | None = None

Reason for the current status of a specific speech synthesis task, including errors if the task has failed.

text_type class-attribute instance-attribute
text_type: TextType | None = None

Specifies whether the input text is plain text or SSML. The default value is plain text.

voice_id class-attribute instance-attribute
