        "TTS_OUTPUT_DIR": "./audio_output"
      }
    }
  }
}

API Compatibility

This server is compatible with OpenAI's Audio API format:

• STT: Uses /v1/audio/transcriptions endpoint with multipart/form-data

• TTS: Uses /v1/audio/speech endpoint with JSON body

Testing

Test server with the provided test endpoint:

STT_URL=http://192.168.195.210:10500/v1/audio/transcriptions \
STT_API_KEY=test \
TTS_URL=http://192.168.195.210:10500/v1/audio/speech \
