# Self-Hosted Whisper API (curl)

Transcribe an audio file via the Whisper ASR webservice at `http://whisper-asr.whisper-asr.svc.cluster.local:9000`.

Uses the [onerahmet/openai-whisper-asr-webservice](https://github.com/ahmetoner/whisper-asr-webservice) API (`/asr` endpoint).

## Quick start

```bash
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a
```

Defaults:
- Endpoint: `http://whisper-asr.whisper-asr.svc.cluster.local:9000/asr`
- Task: `transcribe`
- Output: `txt`

## Useful flags

```bash
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.ogg --language en --out /tmp/transcript.txt
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --language de
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --json --out /tmp/transcript.json
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --output srt --out /tmp/subtitles.srt
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --output vtt
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --translate
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --vad-filter --json
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --word-timestamps --json
```

## Notes

- Supported `--output` formats: `txt`, `json`, `vtt`, `srt`, `tsv`
- `--translate` produces an English transcript regardless of source language
- `--vad-filter` enables voice activity detection to skip silent sections
- `--word-timestamps` adds word-level timing (use with `--json`)
- The model is configured on the server side (ASR_MODEL env var), not per request
- Swagger docs available at `http://whisper-asr.whisper-asr.svc.cluster.local:9000/docs`
- No authentication required
