usermapping

Use this section to define key:value pairs of usernames. The first value is the Twitch username, the second value is how the bot should pronouce the user, when reading the message. This is helpfull if you have regulars with numbers or strangs chars in the name. You can add new/change entries on the fly without restarting the bot (changes took up to 60 seconds).

whitelist

You can add a whitelist section to config.yml, a whitelist will override any other settings like subonly and modonly. Only users on the whitelist are allowed to use !tts. Broadcasters and mods can temporarily add users (including themselfs) to the whitelist by using the !ptts command, though.

A whitelist looks as follows:

whitelist:
  - gpkvt
  - foo
  - bar

To disable the whitelist remove it from config.yml completely. If you just leave whitelist: without entries, everyone must be whitelisted using !ptts. The permit is temporarily until the bot restarts or the user is removed from the (temporary) whitelist using !dtts.

Usage

Execute tts.exe (or tts.py if you have Python installed), open the TTS webpage in your browser (the URL depends on your bind and port configuration, usually it's just http://localhost). Click the Init button at the button of the TTS webpage (you should hear Init complete).

Connect to the configured Twitch channel and send a message starting with !tts. After a few seconds (depending on your clearmsg_timeout config), the message should be read.

Additional commands (broadcaster and mods only) are:

!toff: Turn TTS off (will also empty the current TTS queue)
!ton: Turn TTS back on
!dtts <username>: Disable TTS for the given user
!ptts <username>: Allow TTS for the given user
