2.2.2 (2021-02-03)

Features

  • Adds a language fallback feature for deprecated languages to maintain compatiblity (e.g. en-us becomes en). Fallback can be disabled with lang_check=False or --nocheck for the cli (#267)

Bugfixes

  • Fix Python 2.7 compatiblity (!). Python 2 is long gone, but the cut wasn't clearly communicated for gTTS, so it was restored. Python 2 support will be completely removed in the next major release. (#255)
  • Language code case sensitivity is maintained throughout (#267)

Deprecations and Removals

Improved Documentation

  • Removes reference to automatic retrieval of languages (#250)

Misc

2.2.0 (2020-11-14)

Features

Deprecations and Removals

  • Removed automatic language download from the main code, which has become too unreliable & slow. Languages will still be fetched but a pre-generated list will be shipped with gTTS. (#233, #241, #242, #243)
  • Because languages are now pre-generated, removed custom TLD support for language URL (which allowed to get language names in other than English) (#245)

Misc

2.1.2 (2020-11-10)

Features

  • Update gTTS-token to 1.1.4 (#238)

Bugfixes

Improved Documentation

  • Grammar, spelling and example fixes (#227)

Misc

2.1.1 (2020-01-25)

Bugfixes

  • Debug mode now uses a copy of locals() to prevent RuntimeError (#213)

2.1.0 (2020-01-01)

Features

  • The gtts module
    • Added the ability to customize the Google Translate URL hostname. This is useful when google.com might be blocked within a network but a local or different Google host (e.g. google.cn) is not (#143, #203):
      • New gTTS() parameter tld to specify the top-level domain to use for the Google hostname, i.e https://translate.google.<tld> (default: com).
      • Languages are also now fetched using the same customized hostname.
    • Pre-generated TTS API request URLs can now be obtained instead of writing an mp3 file to disk (for example to be used in an external program):
      • New get_urls() method returns the list of URLs generated by gTTS, which can be used in lieu of write_to_fp() or save().
  • The gtts-cli command-line tool
    • New --tld option to match the new gtts customizable hostname #200, #207)
  • Other
    • Added Python 3.8 support (#204)

Bugfixes

  • Changed default word-for-word pre-processor (('M.', 'Monsieur')) which would substitute any 'm.' for 'monsieur' (e.g. 'them.' became 'themonsieur') (#197)

Improved Documentation

  • Added examples for newer features (#205, #207)

Misc

2.0.4 (2019-08-29)

Features

  • gTTS is now built as a wheel package (Python 2 & 3) (#181)

Improved Documentation

  • Fixed bad example in docs (#163, #166)

Improved Documentation

  • Added Pre-processing and tokenizing > Minimizing section about the API's 100 characters limit and how larger tokens are handled (#121)

Misc

2.0.0 (2018-04-30)

(#108)

Features

  • The gtts module
    • New logger ("gtts") replaces all occurrences of print()
    • Languages list is now obtained automatically (gtts.lang) (#91, #94, #106)
    • Added a curated list of language sub-tags that have been observed to provide different dialects or accents (e.g. "en-gb", "fr-ca")
    • New gTTS() parameter lang_check to disable language checking.
    • gTTS() now delegates the text tokenizing to the API request methods (i.e. write_to_fp(), save()), allowing gTTS instances to be modified/reused
    • Rewrote tokenizing and added pre-processing (see below)
    • New gTTS() parameters pre_processor_funcs and tokenizer_func to configure pre-processing and tokenizing (or use a 3rd party tokenizer)
    • Error handling:
      • Added new exception gTTSError raised on API request errors. It attempts to guess what went wrong based on known information and observed behaviour (#60, #106)
      • gTTS.write_to_fp() and gTTS.save() also raise gTTSError on [gtts_token]{.title-ref} error
      • gTTS.write_to_fp() raises TypeError when fp is not a file-like object or one that doesn't take bytes
      • gTTS() raises ValueError on unsupported languages (and lang_check is True)
      • More fine-grained error handling throughout (e.g. [request failed]{.title-ref} vs. [request successful with a bad response]{.title-ref})
  • Tokenizer (and new pre-processors):
    • Rewrote and greatly expanded tokenizer (gtts.tokenizer)
    • Smarter token 'cleaning' that will remove tokens that only contain characters that can't be spoken (i.e. punctuation and whitespace)
    • Decoupled token minimizing from tokenizing, making the latter usable in other contexts
    • New flexible speech-centric text pre-processing
    • New flexible full-featured regex-based tokenizer (gtts.tokenizer.core.Tokenizer)
    • New RegexBuilder, PreProcessorRegex and PreProcessorSub classes to make writing regex-powered text [pre-processors]{.title-ref} and [tokenizer cases]{.title-ref} easier
    • Pre-processors:
      • Re-form words cut by end-of-line hyphens
      • Remove periods after a (customizable) list of known abbreviations (e.g. "jr", "sr", "dr") that can be spoken the same without a period
      • Perform speech corrections by doing word-for-word replacements from a (customizable) list of tuples
    • Tokenizing:
      • Keep punctuation that modify the inflection of speech (e.g. "?", "!")
      • Don't split in the middle of numbers (e.g. "10.5", "20,000,000") (#101)
      • Don't split on "dotted" abbreviations and accronyms (e.g. "U.S.A")
      • Added Chinese comma (","), ellipsis ("...") to punctuation list to tokenize on (#86)
  • The gtts-cli command-line tool
    • Rewrote cli as first-class citizen module (gtts.cli), powered by Click
    • Windows support using [setuptool]{.title-ref}'s [entry_points]{.title-ref}
    • Better support for Unicode I/O in Python 2
    • All arguments are now pre-validated
    • New --nocheck flag to skip language pre-checking
    • New --all flag to list all available languages
    • Either the --file option or the <text> argument can be set to "-" to read from stdin
    • The --debug flag uses logging and doesn't pollute stdout anymore

Bugfixes

  • _minimize(): Fixed an infinite recursion loop that would occur when a token started with the miminizing delimiter (i.e. a space) (#86)
  • _minimize(): Handle the case where a token of more than 100 characters did not contain a space (e.g. in Chinese).
  • Fixed an issue that fused multiline text together if the total number of characters was less than 100
  • Fixed gtts-cli Unicode errors in Python 2.7 (famous last words) (#78, #93, #96)

Deprecations and Removals

  • Dropped Python 3.3 support
  • Removed debug parameter of gTTS (in favour of logger)
  • gtts-cli: Changed long option name of -o to --output instead of --destination
  • gTTS() will raise a ValueError rather than an AssertionError on unsupported language

Improved Documentation

Misc

  • Major test re-work
  • Language tests can read a TEST_LANGS enviromment variable so not all language tests are run every time.
  • Added AppVeyor CI for Windows
  • PEP 8 compliance

  • System proxy settings are passed transparently to all http requests (#45, #68)
