Add WaveNet Text-to-Speech Client

[NinoSkopac]

Is there a client for this?

[dwsupplee]

By WaveNet, do you mean text to speech? If so, no we don't have a wrapper for this yet - but it would be awesome to add one. This looks like a really interesting service.

@dwsupplee hey yes, that's what I mean.

I thought you guys have all GCloud services available as wrappers in this SDK, no?

Anyway, can you add it? If so, when?

[dwsupplee]

Not everything yet, but we are working on getting there! I am not sure when/if we can expect this, but will find out more information for you and touch base soon.

After taking a quick look at https://github.com/google/google-api-php-client it appears they have support for text to speech there. If you'd like to get working with a wrapper of some type right away, you should be able to use that library until we can offer it here. It is important to note that while the google-api-php-client library has more comprehensive support for the Google services offered, it is considered to be in maintenance mode and won't be receiving any major updates.

darn it

[dwsupplee]

@NinoSkopac I checked in, and we don't have an ETA for this yet unfortunately. I wouldn't expect it to be terribly long before we can get support, however. Will keep you posted!

[NinoSkopac]

Hey @dwsupplee, so the problem is I wasn't able to find a single example for TTS using the old library either - do you have any, please?

[dwsupplee]

@NinoSkopac I don't see any either, unfortunately. @bshaffer is this anything we may expect in the pipeline soon?

[NinoSkopac]

I have figured it out, and I can share it if there is a place for sharing it

[dwsupplee]

@NinoSkopac you may be excited to hear we are adding a Text to Speech client to this library! :)

#1113

Will keep you posted when we release.

im not excited at all actually, as i have had implemented it on my own on may 7th, almost 2 months ago. it's really terrible how long it took to get it implemented.
