I found in the documentation a example code:

import speech
import sound
import dialogs

# Record an audio file using sound.Recorder:
recorder = sound.Recorder('speech.m4a')
recorder.record()
# Continue recording until the 'Finish' button is tapped:
dialogs.alert('Recording...', '', 'Finish', hide_cancel_button=True)
recorder.stop()
try:
    result = speech.recognize('speech.m4a')
    print('=== Details ===')
    print(result)
    print('=== Transcription ===')
    print(result[0][0])

except RuntimeError as e:
    print('Speech recognition failed: %s' % (e,))

On line 12 ther is a speech.m4a is that the File where the Speech is saved and if yes can I delete the file and where is this one?

@Python567 sound.recorder writes the file and speech.recognize reads the file.
It is in the same folder as the script. And of course you can delete it

@cvp ok, thanks for the fast answer🙂

@cvp an other question: Can the speech or sound module listen and know what I say if he listen during I ask what I say?

@Python567 said:

Can the speech or sound module listen and know what I say if he listen during I ask what I say?

Not understood/non compris/no comprendo/no capito....

@cvp so, the modul listen to me every time. Can I find out what I say if the modul don‘t stop to listen to me?

@Python567 the sound module records what you say, it does not really listen to you, and that until you stop it.

ok, so if I want that the module check all five minutes what I say, I must stop it every five minutes to check it`?

@Python567 yes but I wonder if @JonB didn't write a script to do this in real time...

@cvp @JonB write this module

@Python567 you could read this topic but don't hope much help

@cvp I have a code that aks all 5 seconds if I say something. But I get an error after the print is finish.
````
import time
import sound
import speech

timestamp = time.time()

recorder = sound.Recorder('speech.m4a')
recorder.record()

while True:

    if timestamp - time.time() <= -5:
        recorder.stop()
        result = speech.recognize('speech.m4a', 'de_DE')


        if result[0][0] == 'Hallo':
            print('Du hast hallo gesagt')

            recorder.record()

@Python567 two modifs

import time
import sound
import speech

timestamp = time.time() 

recorder = sound.Recorder('speech.m4a')
recorder.record()

while True:
        time.sleep(1)
        if timestamp - time.time() <= -5:
            recorder.stop()
            result = speech.recognize('speech.m4a', 'de_DE')


            if result[0][0] == 'Hallo':
                print('Du hast hallo gesagt')
                timestamp = time.time() 
                recorder.record()

@cvp thanks, that‘s great

@cvp is it normal that my Pythonista crash sometimes? I have a skript with over 18 000 lines. Is that a problem? And how can I update a button every second for my clock?

@Python567 try

import ui
import datetime

class MyView(ui.View):
    def __init__(self):
        self.frame = (0,0,400,400)
        self.background_color = 'white'
        b = ui.Button(name='b')
        b.border_width = 1
        b.border_color = 'blue'
        b.frame = (10,10,250,20)
        self.add_subview(b)
        self.update_interval = 1
    def update(self):
        self['b'].title = str(datetime.datetime.now())

v = MyView()
v.present('sheet')

@Python567 said:

It can be normal if you script uses a lot of memory and you re-run it several times without clearing it.
It happens frequently that I have to kill Pythonista and restart it when I use a big script or a script using a lot of images, by example.

@Python567 other example, try it

@cvp wow, the second example is better 👍. And if I want the numbers, where can I add them?

@Python567 I've just updated the last script above to create fixed part of the clock (circle, digits) in the init def.

@cvp ok, but is it possible that it‘s in your country 7:50?

@Python567 no, 08:50

Ok, because on my clock, the little cursor is on the 8

@Python567 sorry, replace utcnow by now

@cvp what must I replace to what?
Edit: I have it, thanks

@Python567 if you want the date in your clock, replace the graphic part of the init by

        with ui.ImageContext(self.r * 2, self.r * 2) as ctx:
            pthc = ui.Path.oval(self.r*0.9,self.r*0.9,self.r*0.2,self.r*0.2)
            pthc.fill()
            h = 12
            w = 5*h
            t = f"{datetime.datetime.now():%m/%d/%y}"
            x = self.r - w/2
            y = self.r - r/2
            pthr = ui.Path.rect(x,y,w,h)
            ui.set_color('white')
            pthr.fill()
            ui.set_color('black')
            ui.draw_string(t,rect=(x,y,w,h),font=('Menlo',h))
            for i in range(12):
                a = pi/2 - 2 * pi * i/12.0
                x,y = self.r+cos(a)*(self.r*0.85)-h/2, self.r-sin(a)*(self.r*0.85)-h/2
                ui.draw_string(str(i),rect=(x,y,2*h,h),font=('Menlo',h))
            self.back = ctx.get_image()

And now, use your creativity to invent your own clock, path allow all what you imagine.
Try with a personal photo as background of the clock...

@cvp yes I try, thanks for the start code

@Python567 and don't forget, this clock stays a button, you can set it's own action with this kind of lines added at end of init def.

        b.action = self.action

    def action(self,sender):
        print('clock has been pressed')

@Python567 Nice, isn' it? I put the picture of my wife, only as example 😂

        self.update_interval = 1 if self.seconds else 60
        with ui.ImageContext(self.r * 2, self.r * 2) as ctx:
            ui.Image.named('test:Lenna').draw(0,0,self.r * 2, self.r * 2)
            pthc = ui.Path.oval(self.r*0.9,self.r*0.9,self.r*0.2,self.r*0.2)

@cvp yes really nice, only one thing, why do tint_color = 'white' don't work? (I would to change the color from the numbers and the from coursers)

@Python567 tint_color is for button.title, not used here

Draw_string has its own color parameter
Lines need a set_color

Thus, try in init def

            ui.draw_string(t,rect=(x,y,w,h),font=('Menlo',h), color='black')
            for i in range(12):
                a = pi/2 - 2 * pi * i/12.0
                x,y = self.r+cos(a)*(self.r*0.85)-h/2, self.r-sin(a)*(self.r*0.85)-h/2
                ui.draw_string(str(i),rect=(x,y,2*h,h),font=('Menlo',h), color='white')
            self.back = ctx.get_image()

And, in update def

        with ui.ImageContext(self.r * 2, self.r * 2) as ctx:
            self.back.draw(0,0,self.r * 2, self.r * 2)
            pth = ui.Path()
            ui.set_color('white')

@cvp so, that was really dificult. But I have it👍. The big round circle in the middle where can I change the color there? And the action button doesn't work. And with the date there is a problem too (I replace my piece code with your code but it don't work).

@Python567 For me all works, thus you did change something, please post your code.
For the color of the circle it-self, I'll check.

@Python567 said:

            pthc = ui.Path.oval(self.r*0.9,self.r*0.9,self.r*0.2,self.r*0.2)
            ui.set_color('blue')
            pthc.fill()

If you don't want this filled circle, you have only to comment/remove these 3 lines

@Python567 your def action was incorrectly indented

                b.action = self.action


        def action(self, sender):
            print('Uhr wurde gedrückt')

        def update(self):

@Python567 said:

And with the date there is a problem too

You have commented it.

@Python567 and why did you put the draw Image in the def update? It will be done each second...

You did change my code....

@cvp where should I put it, and when I activate the commented out one again, there is an error: name "t" is not defined.

why did you put the draw Image in the def update? It will be done each second...
I don‘t found an other way

@cvp I try to do it in the __init__ but it don‘t work

@Python567 Please, copy and paste my code, try it without changing anything.
If something is wrong, tell me.
If all is ok, try to modify one thing at a time, test it and if it is not ok, be sure it comes from your modif, try to debug your-self and if you can't, ask help.
Sorry, but it is difficult to help via the forum if you change a lot.

@cvp It‘s for me only difficult to add different code on different places

@Python567 I understand but you can try your modif on a little script like mine.
It is only to help you to find the right way to modify and debug a modification.
Always, try to work by little scripts, not your big one.

@cvp I have a small skript for that. Ok, I start to modify my skript.

@Python567 it was an advice, not an obligation 😉

@cvp in one of the post you write the code with that I can import my picture as the background, but you don‘t say where I must write this in my sript. Where is the place for that in my code?

@Python567 in my original script, replace

ui.Image.named('test:Lenna')......

By

ui.Image.named('your.jpg').....

without changing the place of the line

@cvp where in the skript?? IN the update def, in the init, where?

@Python567 did you noT see it in the update def?

Did you start from my last big script? Where you can add the lines for action
Or do you want a new entire script?

@cvp I start form you last big skript. In the update def I don‘t see it. My Skript:

@cvp In the init is something, but that don‘t work with my picture

@Python567 in my previous post, I wrote

        self.update_interval = 1 if self.seconds else 60
        with ui.ImageContext(self.r * 2, self.r * 2) as ctx:
            ui.Image.named('test:Lenna').draw(0,0,self.r * 2, self.r * 2)
            pthc = ui.Path.oval(self.r*0.9,self.r*0.9,self.r*0.2,self.r*0.2)

Where the draw of image is in the context....

And you put it before 😉

@cvp I write this code in the init before ui.Image.named...... Is that the right right place, because it don't work?

@Python567 sincerely, I don't understand what you don't understand.
Please post only your def init, no more

It should be

    def __init__(self, r, seconds=True, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.r = r
        self.seconds = seconds
        self.background_color = 'white'
        self.frame = (0,0,self.r*2,self.r*2)
        b = ui.Button(name='clock')
        b.frame = (0,0,self.width,self.height)
        b.corner_radius = self.width/2
        b.border_color = 'black'
        b.border_width = 1
        b.bg_color = 'lightgray'
        b.title = ''
        b.tint_color = 'red'
        b.background_image = None
        self.add_subview(b)
        self.update_interval = 1 if self.seconds else 60
        with ui.ImageContext(self.r * 2, self.r * 2) as ctx:
            ui.Image.named('IMG_1147.jpeg').draw(0,0,self.r * 2, self.r * 2)
            pthc = ui.Path.oval(self.r*0.9,self.r*0.9,self.r*0.2,self.r*0.2)
            ui.set_color('blue')
            pthc.fill()
            h = 12
            w = 5*h
            t = f"{datetime.datetime.now():%m/%d/%y}"
            x = self.r - w/2
            y = self.r - r/2
            pthr = ui.Path.rect(x,y,w,h)
            ui.set_color('white')
            pthr.fill()
            ui.draw_string(t,rect=(x,y,w,h),font=('Menlo',h), color='black')
            for i in range(12):
                a = pi/2 - 2 * pi * i/12.0
                x,y = self.r+cos(a)*(self.r*0.85)-h/2, self.r-sin(a)*(self.r*0.85)-h/2
                ui.draw_string(str(i),rect=(x,y,2*h,h),font=('Menlo',h), color='white')
            self.back = ctx.get_image()
        b.action = self.action

@cvp that is much more than I have before. After with ui.Image.Context... everything was wrong. But now we have it, 😀

@Python567 said:

But now we have it,

I already had it 😂
Now, you have it 😉

sorry, but I like to joke

@cvp I'm too, no problem😂 Only two questions right now. 1. How can I change the size of the numbers 2. The numbers start with 0 but I want instead the 0 the 12

@Python567 said:

            for i in range(1,13):

@Python567 said:

Instead of

            h = 12

Try, but it depends on your idevice and the size of your button

            h = 16

@cvp it works! And if i want the numbers to be thicker, what have I to do?

@Python567 said:

numbers to be thicker,

You have to select another font, by example 'Arial Rounded MT Bold'

@cvp ok great, thanks

@cvp hi, your clock works wonderfull. But around the clock is a white square. Can I remove this?

@Python567 yes we can by commenting one line

class ClockButton(ui.View):           
    def __init__(self, r, seconds=True, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.r = r
        self.seconds = seconds
        #self.background_color = 'white'

@cvp ok, thanks
