infinitered CLI

A CLI for Infinite Red, with functionality we use internally.

Commands

npx infinitered transcribe <filename>

Alias: t

Transcribes the given audio file and writes the transcription to a text file with the same name.

This uses OpenAI's whisper-1 model.

We primarily use this for transcribing React Native Radio's podcast episodes.

Options:

• --format: The response format you want the transcription in (default is 'json').
• --prompt: An optional prompt to include in the transcription request.

Environment:

• OPENAI_API_KEY: You must set this environment variable with your OpenAI API key.

Example Usage:

The filename is required. All --options are optional.

# can also be set in .zshrc file or similar
# windows powershell is $env:OPENAI_API_KEY = 'yourkeyhere'
export OPENAI_API_KEY=yourkeyhere
# transcribe a file
npx infinitered transcribe myfile.mp3 --format=json --prompt="Optional prompt" --output=mytranscription.txt

Make sure you have set the OPENAI_API_KEY in your environment before running the command.
