After pocketsphinx recognizes a certain keyword or phrase, how do i make it trigger an action?
For example, I want to open a simple .py script from pocketsphinx

Update: in 2020 we recommend to try our new software library called Vosk. It provides much better accuracy than pocketsphinx.
You need to write python code, like this:
import sys, os, pyaudio
from pocketsphinx.pocketsphinx import *
from sphinxbase.sphinxbase import *
modeldir = "../../../model"
# Create a decoder with certain model
config = Decoder.default_config()
config.set_string('-hmm', os.path.join(modeldir, 'en-us/en-us'))
config.set_string('-dict', os.path.join(modeldir, 'en-us/cmudict-en-us.dict'))
config.set_string('-kws', 'command.list')
p = pyaudio.PyAudio()
stream = p.open(format=pyaudio.paInt16, channels=1, rate=16000, input=True)
stream.start_stream()
# Process audio chunk by chunk. On keyword detected perform action and restart search
decoder = Decoder(config)
decoder.start_utt()
while True:
buf = stream.read(1024)
decoder.process_raw(buf, False, False)
if decoder.hyp() != None:
print ([(seg.word, seg.prob, seg.start_frame, seg.end_frame) for seg in decoder.seg()])
print ("Detected keyword, restarting search")
#
# Here you run the code you want based on keyword
#
decoder.end_utt()
decoder.start_utt()
Keyword list should look like this
forward /1e-1/
down /1e-1/
other phrase /1e-20/
The numbers are thresholds for command activation, you can read more about them in tutorial.
