Documentation Request

Hello,

I'm trying to use the new method ttsClient.streamingSynthesize but unsuccessfully. The error I'm getting is:
"Malordered Data Received. Expected streaming_config but received input. Send exactly one config, followed by text input"

After checking the documentation, the PR and the unit test of the version "@google-cloud/text-to-speech": "5.4.0" I couldn't find any example of the StreamingSynthesizeRequest populated. Also could not find any tts stream sample here.

Here is part of my code:

            const request = {
                streamingConfig: { voice: { languageCode: 'es-es', name: 'es-ES-Polyglot-1' } },
                input: { text: '¡hola!' }
              };
            
            const stream = await client.streamingSynthesize();
            stream.on('data', (response) => this.onData(response));
            stream.on('error', (err) => reject(err));
            stream.on('end', () => resolve());
            stream.write(request);
            stream.end();

Hi @brunocarneiro,

Thanks for your question. Since these libraries are mostly autogenerated, this documentation request is not something we can fulfill (it needs to be done either by the API, or it needs a handwritten sample).

• If this is a question, please submit your question to text-to-speech here). You can also submit it as a question to our Discussions tab to engage our community.
• If this is a request for handwritten documentation, please submit it to googleapis/nodejs-docs-samples.
• Although this isn't quite the same, there is an example for streaming with text-to-speech that seems fairly similar

Like @brunocarneiro mentioned, the example does not work and gives the following error:

Malordered Data Received. Expected streaming_config but received input. Send exactly one config, followed by text input

I've tried writing a streaming_config config first before writing the request object, but it's still the same error.
