TTSForge documentation

TTSForge is an audiobook-focused command-line frontend for Readio. Readio owns the persistent project lifecycle, synthesis engines, composition, reuse, and exports; TTSForge presents an EPUB audiobook workflow and maps choices to Readio’s public services.

TTSForge requires Readio >=0.3.4, whose public API supplies its audiobook project, expanded synthesis resolution, and persisted project settings. See Installation for user and development setup.

Workflow overview

ttsforge list novel.epub
ttsforge preview novel.epub
ttsforge convert novel.epub
ttsforge status novel.readio

TTSForge creates or reuses a Readio project, normally <book-stem>.readio beside the EPUB. Readio manages project state and decides which work can be reused. M4B is produced through Readio’s audiobook export service; generic formats use its project export service.

See the Readio API guide and project guide for service details. TTSForge deliberately does not duplicate Readio’s internal project schema or engine documentation. For reproducible command-line recipes, see the TTSForge examples.
