# Java JNI bindings for Whisper
This package provides Java JNI bindings for whisper.cpp. They have been tested on:
* <strike>Darwin (OS X) 12.6 on x64_64</strike>
* Ubuntu on x86_64
* Windows on x86_64
The "low level" bindings are in `WhisperCppJnaLibrary` and `WhisperJavaJnaLibrary` which caches `whisper_full_params` and `whisper_context` in `whisper_java.cpp`.
There are a lot of classes in the `callbacks`, `ggml`, `model` and `params` directories but most of them have not been tested.
The most simple usage is as follows:
```java
import io.github.ggerganov.whispercpp.WhisperCpp;
public class Example {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String modelpath;
WhisperCpp whisper = new WhisperCpp();
// By default, models are loaded from ~/.cache/whisper/ and are usually named "ggml-${name}.bin"
// or you can provide the absolute path to the model file.
whisper.initContext("base.en");
long context = whisper.initContext(modelpath);
try {
whisper.fullTranscribe(context, samples);
int segmentCount = whisper.getTextSegmentCount(context);
for (int i = 0; i < segmentCount; i++) {
String text = whisper.getTextSegment(context, i);
System.out.println(segment.getText());
}
} finally {
whisper.freeContext(context);
}
}
}
```
## Building & Testing
In order to build, you need to have the JDK 8 or higher installed. Run the tests with:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/whisper.cpp.git
cd whisper.cpp/bindings/java
mkdir build
pushd build
cmake ..
cmake --build .
popd
./gradlew build
```
