Play Sound HTTP Requests

[alexankitty]

Feature Request:
In the Play Sound effect, I'd like there to be a fourth type that could utilize the http request effect , or could play the output of another (request) effect.

Context:
I have my own TTS service that provides an API endpoint, sending the text to it is done in the body of a post request, I would like to make the http request to get back a .wav file to then playback either locally or in the overlay.
Or I would like to be able to make the request directly in the Play Sound effect.

Under the HTTP Request effect there is Outputs that give $effectOutput[httpResponse]. This can then be used in the Play Sound effect under the URL with the URL set to $effectOutput[httpResponse, url_key].

In this example the return data from the HTTP Request would look like:

{ "url_key": "https://my_url.example.com/random_key.mp3" }

So in case of needing to do 2 requests:

• HTTP Request -> Set post request -> Click outputs -> name it example create_tts ( this probly return a event_id as json so i use that as example )
• If you need a delay add a delay for like 10 sec
• HTTP Request -> Set url example https://example.com/api/get_tts/$effectOutput[create_tts, event_id] ( this probly returns tts_url as JSON as example ) -> Click outputs -> name it example result_tts
• Play Sound -> set url $effectOutput[result_tts, tts_url]

That doesn't quite work for my use case where I directly return the wav file and not a URL. I implemented it on my end just using a get request with URL parameters, but figured there could be a cleaner way of doing it within firebot.
