hume v0.5.14
Documentation
API reference documentation is available here.
Installation
npm i hume
Usage
import { HumeClient } from "hume";
const hume = new HumeClient({
apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY"
});
const job = await hume.expressionMeasurement.batch.startInferenceJob({
models: {
face: {}
},
urls: ["https://hume-tutorials.s3.amazonaws.com/faces.zip"]
});
console.log("Running...");
await job.awaitCompletion();
const predictions = await hume.expressionMeasurement.batch.getJobPredictions(job.jobId);
console.log(predictions)
Namespaces
This SDK contains the APIs for expression measurement, empathic voice and custom models. Even if you do not plan on using more than one API to start, the SDK provides easy access in case you find additional APIs in the future.
Each API is namespaced accordingly:
import { HumeClient } from "hume";
const hume = new HumeClient({
apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY"
});
hume.expressionMeasurement. // APIs specific to Expression Measurement
hume.emapthicVoice. // APIs specific to Empathic Voice
Websockets
The SDK supports interacting with both WebSocket and REST APIs.
Request-Reply
The SDK supports a request-reply pattern for the streaming expression measurement API.
You'll be able to pass an inference request and await
till the response is received.
import { HumeClient } from "hume";
const hume = new HumeClient({
apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY"
});
const socket = hume.expressionMeasurement.stream.connect({
config: {
language: {}
}
});
for (const sample of samples) {
const result = await socket.sendText({ text: sample })
console.log(result)
}
Empathic Voice
The SDK supports sending and receiving audio from Empathic Voice.
import { HumeClient } from "hume";
const hume = new HumeClient({
apiKey: "<>",
clientSecret: "<>",
});
const socket = await hume.empathicVoice.chat.connect({
async onMessage(message): Promise<void> {
if (message.type === "audio_output") {
const decoded = Buffer.from(message.data, "base64");
// play decoded message
}
}
});
await socket.sendTextInput("Hello, how are you?");
Errors
When the API returns a non-success status code (4xx or 5xx response), a subclass of HumeError will be thrown:
import { HumeError, HumeTimeoutError } from "hume";
try {
await hume.expressionMeasurement.batch.startInferenceJob(/* ... */);
} catch (err) {
if (err instanceof HumeTimeoutError) {
console.log("Request timed out", err);
} else if (err instanceof HumeError) {
// catch all errros
console.log(err.statusCode);
console.log(err.message);
console.log(err.body);
}
}
Retries
409 Conflict, 429 Rate Limit, and >=500 Internal errors will all be retried twice with exponential bakcoff. You can use the maxRetries option to configure this behavior:
await hume.expressionMeasurement.batch.startInferenceJob(..., {
maxRetries: 0, // disable retries
});
Timeouts
By default, the SDK has a timeout of 60s. You can use the timeoutInSeconds
option to configure
this behavior
await hume.expressionMeasurement.batch.startInferenceJob(..., {
timeoutInSeconds: 10, // timeout after 10 seconds
});
Beta Status
This SDK is in beta, and there may be breaking changes between versions without a major version update. Therefore, we recommend pinning the package version to a specific version. This way, you can install the same version each time without breaking changes.
Contributing
While we value open-source contributions to this SDK, this library is generated programmatically. Additions made directly to this library would have to be moved over to our generation code, otherwise they would be overwritten upon the next generated release. Feel free to open a PR as a proof of concept, but know that we will not be able to merge it as-is. We suggest opening an issue first to discuss with us!
On the other hand, contributions to the README are always very welcome!
