The location and project_id fields were deprecated since 0.0.90 in
favor of direct __init__ parameters. Now that InputParams is removed,
project_id is required and location defaults to "us-east4" directly
in the signature.
Override _update_settings in CartesiaTTSService to flush the current
audio context and assign a new turn context ID when voice, model, or
language settings change. This prevents Context has closed errors
from Cartesia API, which locks these parameters per context.
Remove the deprecated text_aggregator parameter from TTSService,
CartesiaTTSService, and RimeTTSService, and the deprecated text_filter
parameter from TTSService. Users should use LLMTextProcessor before
the TTS service instead. Update the voice-switching example to use
LLMTextProcessor with PatternPairAggregator.
Change the default from 10s to None so deferred function calls can run
indefinitely when no timeout is configured. Only create the timeout
task when a timeout is actually provided (per-call or service-level).
Add SmallestSTTService using the Pulse WebSocket API for real-time
transcription. Includes SmallestSTTSettings dataclass, 32-language
support with resolve_language fallback, VAD-driven finalize signal,
and SMALLEST_TTFS_P99 latency constant.
Also adds X-Source and X-Pipecat-Version headers to Smallest STT
and TTS WebSocket connections.
Now that LLMContextFrame is the only frame that provides a context,
remove the intermediate `context = None` / `if context:` pattern
and handle context processing directly in the isinstance branch.
Add WebsocketLLMService as a base class for WebSocket-based LLM services,
parallel to WebsocketTTSService/WebsocketSTTService but codifying a
transactional request-response model rather than a continuous background
receive loop.
WebsocketLLMService provides:
- Connection lifecycle (start/stop/cancel → connect/disconnect)
- _ws_send/_ws_recv with transparent ConnectionClosed handling
(auto-reconnect via exponential backoff → WebsocketReconnectedError)
- _ensure_connected with retry via _try_reconnect
OpenAIResponsesLLMService now inherits from WebsocketLLMService, removing
duplicated connection management code (_connect, _disconnect, _reconnect,
_ensure_connected, _ws_send, start, stop, cancel) and simplifying
_process_context from a loop with attempt tracking to a flat try/except
with a single retry.
