Jarvis is a voice assistant service in Python 3.4+ It can understand human speech, talk to user and execute basic commands.
- Opens a web page (e.g 'Jarvis open youtube')
- Play a video in Youtube (e.g 'find in you tdex in youtube')
- Opens libreoffice suite applications (calc, writer, impress) (e.g 'Jarvis open calc')
- Tells about something, by searching on the internet (e.g 'Jarvis tells me about oranges')
- Tells the weather for a place (e.g 'Jarvis tell_the_skills me the weather in London')
- Tells the current time and/or date (e.g 'Jarvis tells me time or date')
- Tells the internet speed (ping, uplink and downling) (e.g 'Jarvis tell_the_skills me the internet speed')
- Tells the internet availability (e.g 'Jarvis is the internet connection ok?')
- Tells the daily news (e.g 'Jarvis tell me today news')
- Spells a word (e.g 'Jarvis spell me the word animal')
- Creates a reminder (e.g 'Jarvis create a 10 minutes reminder')
- Opens linux applications (e.g 'Jarvis open bash/firefox')
- Tells everything it can do (e.g 'Jarvis tell me your skills or tell me what can you do')
- Execute multiple commands at once, (e.g 'Jarvis open youtube and tell_the_skills me the time')
- Continues listening service, triggered by a phrase e.g ('hi', 'hello jarvis')
- Uses wolfram API for general questions
- Easy voice-command customization
- Configurable assistant name (e.g 'Jarvis', 'Sofia', 'John' etc.)
- Vocal or/and text response
You can easily add a new skill in two steps.
- Create a new configurationin SKILLS in skills_registry.py
'new_skill': {'enable': True, 'skill': Skills.new_skill, 'tags': {'tag1', 'tag2'}, 'description': 'skill description..' }, - Create a new skill package in skills
Jarvis assistant uses third party APIs for speech recognition,web information search, weather forecasting etc. All the following APIs have free no-commercial API calls. Subscribe to the following APIs in order to take access KEYs.
- OpenWeatherMap: API for weather forecast.
- WolframAlpha: API for answer questions.
- Go to home directory:
cd ~/ - Download the Jarvis repo localy:
git clone https://github.com/ggeop/Jarvis.git The first step is to setup the virtual environment with the project dependencies.
- If you don't have installed the virtualenv package, you can install it with pip:
pip install virtualenv - Create a virtual environment
- We create a new virtual environment inside the Jarvis directory:
virtualenv ~/Jarvis/py_env - Install python-dev package and pyaudio packages if they are not already installed:
sudo apt-get install python-dev sudo apt-get install portaudio19-dev python-pyaudio python3-pyaudio sudo apt-get install libasound2-plugins libsox-fmt-all libsox-dev sox ffmpeg - Activate the virtual environment:
source ~/Jarvis/py_env/bin/activate - Install all the Python packages in your:
pip install -r requirements.txt - Before you start running the application you have to put the free KEYs in the settings.py:
nano Jarvis/src/jarvis/jarvis/setting.py sudo chown user:usergroup /var/log - Start the assistant service:
python Jarvis/src/jarvis/start.py - (OR) start the assistant service in the background:
nohup python Jarvis/src/jarvis/start.py >/dev/null 2>&1 &
