Integrating `openedai-speech` into Open WebUI using Docker Desktop
================================================================
**What is `openedai-speech`?**
-----------------------------
[openedai-speech](https://github.com/matatonic/openedai-speech) is an OpenAI API compatible text-to-speech server that uses Coqui AI's `xtts_v2` and/or `Piper TTS` as the backend. It's a free, private, text-to-speech server that allows for custom voice cloning and is compatible with the OpenAI audio/speech API.
**Prerequisites**
---------------
* Docker Desktop installed on your system
* Open WebUI running in a Docker container
* A basic understanding of Docker and Docker Compose
**Option 1: Using Docker Compose**
---------------------------------
**Step 1: Create a new folder for the `openedai-speech` service**
---------------------------------------------------------
Create a new folder, for example, `openedai-speech-service`, to store the `docker-compose.yml` and `.env` files.
**Step 2: Create a `docker-compose.yml` file**
------------------------------------------
In the `openedai-speech-service` folder, create a new file named `docker-compose.yml` with the following contents:
```yaml
services:
server:
image: ghcr.io/matatonic/openedai-speech
container_name: openedai-speech
env_file: .env
ports:
- "8000:8000"
volumes:
- tts-voices:/app/voices
- tts-config:/app/config
# labels:
# - "com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true"
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
tts-voices:
tts-config:
```
**Step 3: Create an `.env` file (optional)**
-----------------------------------------
In the same `openedai-speech-service` folder, create a new file named `.env` with the following contents:
```
TTS_HOME=voices
HF_HOME=voices
#PRELOAD_MODEL=xtts
#PRELOAD_MODEL=xtts_v2.0.2
#PRELOAD_MODEL=parler-tts/parler_tts_mini_v0.1
```
**Step 4: Run `docker-compose` to start the `openedai-speech` service**
---------------------------------------------------------
Run the following command in the `openedai-speech-service` folder to start the `openedai-speech` service in detached mode:
```
docker compose up -d
```
This will start the `openedai-speech` service in the background.
**Option 2: Using Docker Run Commands**
-------------------------------------
You can also use the following Docker run commands to start the `openedai-speech` service in detached mode:
**With GPU (Nvidia) support:**
```bash
docker run -d --gpus=all -p 8000:8000 -v tts-voices:/app/voices -v tts-config:/app/config --name openedai-speech ghcr.io/matatonic/openedai-speech:latest
```
**Alternative without GPU support:**
```bash
docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -v tts-voices:/app/voices -v tts-config:/app/config --name openedai-speech ghcr.io/matatonic/openedai-speech-min:latest
```
**Configuring Open WebUI**
-------------------------
For more information on configuring Open WebUI to use `openedai-speech`, including setting environment variables, see the [Open WebUI documentation](https://docs.openwebui.com/getting-started/env-configuration/#text-to-speech).
**Step 5: Configure Open WebUI to use `openedai-speech`**
---------------------------------------------------------
Open the Open WebUI settings and navigate to the TTS Settings under Admin Panel > Settings > Audio. Add the following configuration:
* **API Base URL**: `http://host.docker.internal:8000/v1`
* **API Key**: `sk-111111111` (note: this is a dummy API key, as `openedai-speech` doesn't require an API key; you can use whatever for this field)
**Step 6: Choose a voice**
-------------------------
Under Set Voice, you can choose from the following voices:
* alloy
* echo
* echo-alt
* fable
* onyx
* nova
* shimmer
**Step 7: Enjoy naturally sounding voices**
-----------------------------------------
You should now be able to use the `openedai-speech` integration with Open WebUI to generate naturally sounding voices.
**Troubleshooting**
-------------------
If you encounter any issues, make sure that:
* The `openedai-speech` service is running and the port you set in the docker-compose.yml file is exposed.
* The `host.docker.internal` hostname is resolvable from within the Open WebUI container. `host.docker.internal` is required since `openedai-speech` is exposed via `localhost` on your PC, but `open-webui` cannot normally access this from within its container.
* The API key is set to a dummy value, as `openedai-speech` doesn't require an API key.
**Additional Resources**
-------------------------
For more information on `openedai-speech`, please visit the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/matatonic/openedai-speech).
Note: You can change the port number in the `docker-compose.yml` file to any open and usable port, but make sure to update the **API Base URL** in Open WebUI Admin Audio settings accordingly.
