Whispering is the API service for transcription.

Get Started

Clone this repository

git clone git@github.com:sugarforever/whispering.git

Install poetry

Whispering is using poetry to manage python dependencies.
```
curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 -
```
Go to the cloned directory whispering, initialize a poetry shell, and install the dependencies.
```
$ cd whispering

$ poetry shell

$ poetry install
```
Copy .env.example to .env and set OPENAI_API_KEY

There are 2 environmental variables referenced by the service:
- X_API_KEYS
  
  X_API_KEYS is used to protect the API endpoint from anonymous usage. You should always pass it as a HTTP header X-API-KEY.
- OPENAI_API_KEY
  
  OPENAI_API_KEY is used to call the OpenAI transcribe API.
Start the service
```
poetry run uvicorn main:app
```
The service should be up and running on http://localhost:8000
