In Audacity 2.3.1
“Extra menu > Scriptables II > Get Info” and select the “Labels” option.

Hum i think i will need some pro-user to help me perform this.
If anybody can give me more help to make a macro to export labels in a formated json ?

I think it will need able to add custom Regex ? or other tricks with macro to edit current json ?
I know Audacity macro are experimental, but if a pro-user can help me with this :slight_smile:

This macro setup for now, give me a message log like this, but it not saved! and cant add regex for custom format?

i also try with export2 but …

Maybe i need a good example to perform :slight_smile:
thank and any help are welcome.

I mentioned “GetInfo” because of your comment: “but we really need a wait to export in json fro audacity”
I haven’t looked into what you are doing with “SpriteAudio” (not really my field).

The GetInfo command is primarily intended for use with “mod-script-pipe”, which is an optional module that enables external scripting languages (such as Python) to communicate with Audacity via named pipes.

To date, md-script-pipe has been a separate download from Audacity, and available only as source code, requiring the user to build Audacity and the module from source. The next release of Audacity (2.3.2) will ship with mod-script-pipe included, so anyone that wants to use it only needs to enable it in Audacity’s preferences. If you wish to look at mod-script-pipe, there’s a pre-release (alpha) build available on Audacity’s FossHub developer page here: https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity-devel.html

More information can be found in the alpha manual:
https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Scripting
and
https://alphamanual.audacityteam.org/man/Scripting_Reference

Probably the easiest way to use mod-script-pipe with Python, is to use the “pipeclient” module, available here: https://github.com/audacity/audacity/blob/master/scripts/piped-work/pipeclient.py
