I have a python Code that will recognize speech using the Google STT engine and give me back the results but I get the results in strings with "quotes". I don't want that quotes in my code as I will use it to run many commands and it doesn't work. I haven't tried anything so far as I didn't get anything to try! This is the function in the python code that will recognize speech:
def recog():
p = subprocess.Popen(['./speech-recog.sh'], stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
global out,err
out, err = p.communicate()
print out
This is speech-recog.sh:
#!/bin/bash
hardware="plughw:1,0"
duration="3"
lang="en"
hw_bool=0
dur_bool=0
lang_bool=0
for var in "$@"
do
if [ "$var" == "-D" ] ; then
hw_bool=1
elif [ "$var" == "-d" ] ; then
dur_bool=1
elif [ "$var" == "-l" ] ; then
lang_bool=1
elif [ $hw_bool == 1 ] ; then
hw_bool=0
hardware="$var"
elif [ $dur_bool == 1 ] ; then
dur_bool=0
duration="$var"
elif [ $lang_bool == 1 ] ; then
lang_bool=0
lang="$var"
else
echo "Invalid option, valid options are -D for hardware and -d for duration"
fi
done

The easiest way is:
s = '"sajdkasjdsaasdasdasds"'
import json
s = json.loads(s)
There are several ways this can be accomplished.
You can make use of the builtin string function .replace()
to replace all occurrences of quotes in a given string:
>>> s = '"abcd" efgh'
>>> s.replace('"', '')
'abcd efgh'
>>>
You can use the string function .join()
and a generator expression to remove all quotes from a given string:
>>> s = '"abcd" efgh'
>>> ''.join(c for c in s if c not in '"')
'abcd efgh'
>>>
You can use a regular expression to remove all quotes from given string. This has the added advantage of letting you have control over when and where a quote should be deleted:
>>> s = '"abcd" efgh'
>>> import re
>>> re.sub('"', '', s)
'abcd efgh'
>>>
if string.startswith('"'):
string = string[1:]
if string.endswith('"'):
string = string[:-1]
To add to @Christian's comment:
Replace all single or double quotes in a string:
s = "'asdfa sdfa'"
import re
re.sub("[\"\']", "", s)
You can replace "quote" characters with an empty string, like this:
>>> a = '"sajdkasjdsak" "asdasdasds"'
>>> a
'"sajdkasjdsak" "asdasdasds"'
>>> a = a.replace('"', '')
>>> a
'sajdkasjdsak asdasdasds'
In your case, you can do the same for out
variable.
You can use eval() for this purpose
>>> url = "'http address'"
>>> eval(url)
'http address'
while eval() poses risk , i think in this context it is safe.
