Get live audio stream data for React Native
npm install react-native-i2l-voiceGet live audio stream data for React Native. Ideal for live voice recognition (transcribing).
This module is modified from react-native-audio-record. Instead of saving to an audio file, it only emit events with live data. By doing this, it can reduce memory usage and eliminate file operation overheads in the case that an audio file is not necessary (e.g. live transcribing).
Most of the code was written by the respective original authors.

`Usage
javascript
import LiveAudioStream from 'react-native-live-audio-stream';const options = {
sampleRate: 32000, // default is 44100 but 32000 is adequate for accurate voice recognition
channels: 1, // 1 or 2, default 1
bitsPerSample: 16, // 8 or 16, default 16
audioSource: 6, // android only (see below)
bufferSize: 4096 // default is 2048
};
LiveAudioStream.init(options);
LiveAudioStream.on('data', data => {
// base64-encoded audio data chunks
});
...
LiveAudioStream.start();
...
LiveAudioStream.stop();
...
` should be one of the constant values from here. Default value is 6 (VOICE_RECOGNITION).Use 3rd-party modules like buffer to decode base64 data. Example:
`javascript
// yarn add buffer
import { Buffer } from 'buffer';
...
LiveAudioStream.on('data', data => {
var chunk = Buffer.from(data, 'base64');
});
