README - Sound.mp3

Step 1: Repository Structure

1. Create a GitHub Repository:

•	Repository name: sound-host
•	Upload the file start-sound.mp3 to the root directory.

2. File Structure:

sound-host/
├── start-sound.mp3  # Your audio file
└── README.md        # Optional documentation

3. Enable GitHub Pages:

•	In Settings of your sound-host repository, enable GitHub Pages by selecting the main branch and the root folder.
•	GitHub will provide a URL like:

https://Exios66.github.io/sound-host/

•	The audio file will be accessible at:

https://Exios66.github.io/sound-host/start-sound.mp3

Step 2: Python Code for the Assistant

Here’s the updated Python code to fetch and play the audio file hosted on your GitHub Pages.

Python Code:

import requests import os from playsound import playsound

URL of the hosted sound file on GitHub Pages

SOUND_URL = 'https://Exios66.github.io/sound-host/start-sound.mp3'

def fetch_and_play_sound(): # File to save the sound locally local_sound_file = 'start-sound.mp3'

# Fetch the sound file from GitHub Pages
try:
    response = requests.get(SOUND_URL)
    response.raise_for_status()  # Ensure the request was successful
except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
    print(f"Error fetching the sound file: {e}")
    return

# Save the file locally
with open(local_sound_file, 'wb') as f:
    f.write(response.content)
    print(f"Sound file saved as {local_sound_file}")

# Play the sound using the local file
try:
    playsound(local_sound_file)
    print("Sound played successfully.")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error playing the sound: {e}")

# Optionally delete the local sound file after playing
if os.path.exists(local_sound_file):
    os.remove(local_sound_file)
    print(f"Local file {local_sound_file} deleted.")

Example usage: Call this function when the assistant needs to play the sound

fetch_and_play_sound()

Step 3: Instructions to Set Up GitHub Pages

1.	Create a GitHub Repository:
•	Create a new public repository on GitHub named sound-host.
2.	Upload the MP3 File:
•	Drag and drop start-sound.mp3 into the root of the repository.
3.	Enable GitHub Pages:
•	Navigate to Settings of your repository.
•	Scroll down to the GitHub Pages section.
•	Under “Source,” choose the main branch and set the root folder.
•	GitHub will provide a URL like:

https://Exios66.github.io/sound-host/

•	Your MP3 file will now be accessible at:

https://Exios66.github.io/sound-host/start-sound.mp3

Python Code Explanation:

•	SOUND_URL: This is the URL pointing to the hosted start-sound.mp3 file on GitHub Pages.
•	requests.get: The sound file is downloaded from this URL and saved locally.
•	playsound: The saved file is played back locally.
•	Cleanup: The local file is deleted after playing to avoid clutter.

Final Steps:

1.	Test the GitHub Pages URL:
•	Ensure you can access your sound file via this link:

https://Exios66.github.io/sound-host/start-sound.mp3 2. Integrate into the Assistant: • Add the Python script into your assistant’s knowledge base or environment. • Call fetch_and_play_sound() wherever the assistant needs to play the sound. 3. Dependencies: Make sure requests and playsound are installed in your environment:

pip install requests playsound

This setup will now allow your assistant to fetch and play the sound file from your GitHub Pages repository each time it’s triggered.
