How to start using

Just clone this repository and try to build and run the app module 😉

If you want some details - there is how to do the same with your hands.

1. Create a new Android project with next dependencies in the build.gradle file

    android {
        compileOptions {
            sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
            targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        }
    }

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

dependencies {
    implementation("com.justai.aimybox:core:0.15.0")
    implementation("com.justai.aimybox:components:0.1.10")
}

1. Add one or more dependencies of third party speech-to-text and text-to-speech libraries. For example

implementation("com.justai.aimybox:google-platform-speechkit:0.15.0")

1. Create a new project in Aimybox console, enable some voice skills and copy your project's API key.

2. Instantiate Aimybox in your Application class like that

class AimyboxApplication : Application(), AimyboxProvider {

companion object {
    private const val AIMYBOX_API_KEY = "your Aimybox project key"
}

override val aimybox by lazy { createAimybox(this) }

private fun createAimybox(context: Context): Aimybox {
    val unitId = UUID.randomUUID().toString()

    val textToSpeech = GooglePlatformTextToSpeech(context)
    val speechToText = GooglePlatformSpeechToText(context)

    val dialogApi = AimyboxDialogApi(AIMYBOX_API_KEY, unitId)

    return Aimybox(Config.create(speechToText, textToSpeech, dialogApi))
}
}

1. Add

   FrameLayout

   to your application's layout like this

1. Add

   AimyboxAssistantFragment

   in your activity that uses this layout (like here)

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.layout_activity_main)

supportFragmentManager.beginTransaction().apply {
    replace(R.id.assistant_container, AimyboxAssistantFragment())
    commit()
}
}

1. Make sure your app's theme contains Aimybox's styles:
