<![CDATA[Cast equivalent on RPi for T2S?]]>Using TRIGGERcmd:
I am using cast to send text for Google Nest Mini to speak, from my desktop.
I am also controlling RPI from Google Nest Mini including a motor control, LEDS get temperature etc. all OK. The RPi OS is Raspian and the apps are .Net 6.

The temperature sensor readings on the RPi go to a file in /tmp there.
On the desktop I can use cast to read a text file and for the Nest to speak it.

Q. Is there an equivalent to cast that I can run on RPi to send text from a file to Google Nest to be spoken?

https://github.com/vishen/go-chromecast

It's a Go utility so they have binaries for all different OS's, including arm7 (Rpi).
