### Installation

To begin, install the preferred dependency manager for PHP, [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/).

Now to install just this component:

```sh
$ composer require google/cloud-text-to-speech
```

Or to install the entire suite of components at once:

```sh
$ composer require google/cloud
```

### Authentication

Please see our [Authentication guide](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-php/blob/master/AUTHENTICATION.md) for more information
on authenticating your client. Once authenticated, you'll be ready to start making requests.

### Sample

```php
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Google\Cloud\TextToSpeech\V1\AudioConfig;
use Google\Cloud\TextToSpeech\V1\AudioEncoding;
use Google\Cloud\TextToSpeech\V1\SynthesisInput;
use Google\Cloud\TextToSpeech\V1\TextToSpeechClient;
use Google\Cloud\TextToSpeech\V1\VoiceSelectionParams;

$textToSpeechClient = new TextToSpeechClient();

$input = new SynthesisInput();
$input->setText('Japan\'s national soccer team won against Colombia!');
$voice = new VoiceSelectionParams();
$voice->setLanguageCode('en-US');
$audioConfig = new AudioConfig();
$audioConfig->setAudioEncoding(AudioEncoding::MP3);

$resp = $textToSpeechClient->synthesizeSpeech($input, $voice, $audioConfig);
file_put_contents('test.mp3', $resp->getAudioContent());
```

### Version

This component is considered beta. As such, it should be expected to be mostly
stable and we're working towards a release candidate. We will address issues
and requests with a higher priority.
