"""Run a recognizer using the Google Assistant Library.

The Google Assistant Library has direct access to the audio API, so this Python
code doesn't need to record audio. Hot word detection "OK, Google" is supported.

The Google Assistant Library can be installed with:
    env/bin/pip install google-assistant-library==0.0.2

It is available for Raspberry Pi 2/3 only; Pi Zero is not supported.

Also, I renamed the file to assistant.py so that's what that is

@RubyGamerX600 This script used to work for me with google-assistant-library==0.0.2 as mentioned at the top of the file, but that version is now several years old and I don't know if it still works. Since then I no longer use my VoiceKit and it looks like google-assistant-library has been deprecated (see here) so you may need to find an alternative.
