How to make hark detect silence after a pause of 1.5 secs or 2 secs?

[AyushiMidha]

I have tried using setInterval() function and options.interval but it's not working.

You can do that from your own code...

For example, I want to listen for silence after 2 seconds...

import * as moment from "moment"

let speaking, 
     silence, 
     timerCount, 
    timeCountInterval, 
    silenceTime = null
const SILENCE_TIME = 2 * 1000 // 2 sec

hark.on("speaking", () => {
    speaking = true
})

hark.on("stoped_speaking", () => {
   if (!silenceTime) {
       silenceTime = moment().unix()
   }

    setTimeInterval(() => {
       if (speaking === true &&
          silenceTime &&
          moment().unix() - silenceTime >= SILENCE_TIME) {
             // Do what ever you want to do here, we know they are now silence
             speaking = false
             clearInterval(timeCountInterval)
      }
    }, 1000) // run every 1 sec
})
