How to install AWS Polly, in order to use the IVR Cally Square AWS Polly block.
Step-by-step guide
1. Install pip
Please note that pip is already installed if you're using Python 2 >=2.7.9 or Python 3 >=3.4 binaries downloaded from python.org, but you'll need to upgrade pip.
Additionally, pip will already be installed if you're working in a Virtual Environment created by virtualenv or pyvenv.
To install pip, securely download get-pip.py. (https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py).
Then run the following:
$python get-pip.py
2. Install AWS Command Line Interface
(http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/installing.html)
The primary distribution method for the AWS CLI on Linux is pip, a package manager for Python that provides an easy way to install, upgrade, and remove Python packages and their dependencies.
Requirements
- Python 2 version 2.6.5+ or Python 3 version 3.3+
- Linux
If you already have pip and a supported version of Python, you can install the AWS CLI with the following command:
$ pip install --upgrade --user awscliVerify that the AWS CLI installed correctly by running aws
--version.
$aws--version
AWS needs the correct timezone in order to work properly. We suggest you to set a timezone on your server, run the following command on console:
ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com
