Python alignment API needs documentation/tutorials

[Errorbot1122]

I'm pretty new to python as a language (not to programming, in general, though). It would be really helpful if anyone could find a good tutorial online (or even make one) for the alignment command. Funnily enough, I am using it in my project already, but just in the SpeechRecognition library which has TONS of tutorials online.

Thanks a TON!

P.S: If you wanted to know, I did look at the docs, but it did not really help out that much, and google does not have much ether

Hi! Working on this, unfortunately the documentation is limited beyond just the basic API... I would be interested to know your use case as that would help in guiding what tutorials to write first!

In this instance, I need to align already generated speech using a text file, like a Forced Aliner.

This would be helpful for the Python API. (for some reason I can't install the CLI)

P.S: Is there any alternative way to use the pocketsphinx CLI? (like python3 -m pocketsphinx ...)

[dhdaines]

Hm, the CLI ought to work, what is your system configuration and how are you attempting to use it? I would like to ensure that it works for everybody!

I took a little break after making the release but I will publish a Docker image for the CLI which should make things easier as well.

Also if you could, please create a separate issue for your problems with the CLI
