# This script converts an existing audio dataset with a manifest to
# a tarred and sharded audio dataset that can be read by the
# TarredAudioToTextDataLayer.

# Please make sure your audio_filepath DOES NOT CONTAIN '-sub'!
# Because we will use it to handle files which have duplicate filenames but with different offsets
# (see function create_shard for details)


# Bucketing can help to improve the training speed. You may use --buckets_num to specify the number of buckets.
# It creates multiple tarred datasets, one per bucket, based on the audio durations.
# The range of [min_duration, max_duration) is split into equal sized buckets.
# Recommend to use --sort_in_shards to speedup the training by reducing the paddings in the batches
# More info on how to use bucketing feature: https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/nemo/user-guide/docs/en/main/asr/datasets.html

# If valid NVIDIA DALI version is installed, will also generate the corresponding DALI index files that need to be
# supplied to the config in order to utilize webdataset for efficient large dataset handling.
# NOTE: DALI + Webdataset is NOT compatible with Bucketing support !

# Usage:
1) Creating a new tarfile dataset

python convert_to_tarred_audio_dataset.py \
    --manifest_path=<path to the manifest file> \
    --target_dir=<path to output directory> \
    --num_shards=<number of tarfiles that will contain the audio> \
    --max_duration=<float representing maximum duration of audio samples> \
    --min_duration=<float representing minimum duration of audio samples> \
    --shuffle --shuffle_seed=1 \
    --sort_in_shards \
    --force_codec=flac \
    --workers=-1


2) Concatenating more tarfiles to a pre-existing tarred dataset

python convert_to_tarred_audio_dataset.py \
    --manifest_path=<path to the tarred manifest file> \
    --metadata_path=<path to the metadata.yaml (or metadata_version_{X}.yaml) file> \
    --target_dir=<path to output directory where the original tarfiles are contained> \
    --max_duration=<float representing maximum duration of audio samples> \
    --min_duration=<float representing minimum duration of audio samples> \
    --shuffle --shuffle_seed=1 \
    --sort_in_shards \
    --workers=-1 \
    --concat_manifest_paths
    <space separated paths to 1 or more manifest files to concatenate into the original tarred dataset>

3) Writing an empty metadata file

python convert_to_tarred_audio_dataset.py \
    --target_dir=<path to output directory> \
    # any other optional argument
    --num_shards=8 \
    --max_duration=16.7 \
    --min_duration=0.01 \
    --shuffle \
    --workers=-1 \
    --sort_in_shards \
    --shuffle_seed=1 \
    --write_metadata
