Installation

Install DeepSpeech

• fetch an up-to-date native_client.<your system>.tar.xz matching your system from DeepSpeech's "releases"
• extract its content to /tmp/deepspeech/lib
• download deepspeech.h from https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech/raw/v0.9.0/native_client/deepspeech.h
• copy it to /tmp/deepspeech/include
• export CGO_LDFLAGS="-L/tmp/deepspeech/lib/"
• export CGO_CXXFLAGS="-I/tmp/deepspeech/include/"
• export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/deepspeech/lib/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
