I have been looking everywhere and having a lot of difficulties finding a solution so sorry if I am coming to the wrong place
I am trying to create a discord bot that can transcript conversations live, I chose vosk because its an offline too, l but I am unsure of how to implement it in a live setting, I've seen it done in python and disc.js but I dunno...so to cover all bases here is what I have so far.

 const { SlashCommandBuilder} = require('discord.js');
  const { joinVoiceChannel, createAudioPlayer, NoSubscriberBehavior } = require('@discordjs/voice');
  VoiceConnectionStatus, createAudioPlayer, createAudioResource, StreamType
  const { Readable } = require('stream');
  const vosk = require('vosk');
  //https://alphacephei.com/vosk/models
  const model = new vosk.Model('model/vosk-model-en-us-0.42-gigaspeech');
  module.exports = {
      data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
          .setName('connect')
          .setDescription('Join channel to start listening'),
          async execute(interaction) {
              let talkingUser;
              const ch = interaction.guild.channels.cache.find(c => c.name === 'transcript');
              const voiceChannel = interaction.member.voice.channel;//gets current user id
              if (!voiceChannel){
                  await interaction.reply({content: 'Error: The voice channel does not exist!', ephemeral: true});
                  return;//if they are in a voice channel return an error
              }
              const voiceConn = joinVoiceChannel({
                  channelId: voiceChannel.id,
                  guildId: interaction.guild.id,
                  adapterCreator: interaction.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
                  selfDeaf: false,
              });

              await interaction.reply({ content: 'Ready to listen!', ephemeral: true });
              voiceConn.receiver.speaking.on('start', (userId) => {//'end' works too
                  talkingUser = (interaction.guild.members.cache.get(userId)).displayName
                  console.log(talkingUser, 'started')
              })
          }
  }

so currently I have it so that when someone speaks in a call it is able to send a console message (Or a message in the chat) that "talkingUser" is talking. When a user starts talking it sends, I am not sure if there is a better implantation because of the switch to discord/voice I can't find much on alternatives.

but back to my issue that involves vosk this is my first implementation of using VOSK in a live environment, I am getting an error saying TypeError recognizer.setVoice(voiceConn); is not a constructor
after that, if I comment it out I get an error on recognizer.on is not a function

async function performSpeechRecognition(voiceConn, ch) {
    const recognizer = new vosk.Recognizer({ model: model, sampleRate: 48000 });
    recognizer.setWords(true);
    recognizer.setVoice(voiceConn);

    const audioPlayer = createAudioPlayer();
    voiceConn.subscribe(audioPlayer);

    audioPlayer.on('data', (audioData) => {
        recognizer.acceptWaveform(audioData);
    });

    audioPlayer.on('error', (error) => {
        console.error('Audio player error:', error);
    });

    recognizer.on('result', (result) => {
        const text = result.text;
        console.log('Recognized text:', text);
        // Do whatever you want with the recognized text
        // For example, you can send it to a transcript channel:
        // if (ch) {
        //     ch.send({ content: text });
        // }
        console.log("Said", text);
    });

    recognizer.on('error', (error) => {
        console.error('Recognition error:', error);
    });
    recognizer.free();
    model.free();
}

This is a second implementation that I found looking through git and stack overflow giving me an error saying voice_Connection.receiver.createStream is not a function

function speak_impl(voice_Connection, userId, voiceChannelId) {
        console.log(`I'm listening to ${userId.displayName}`)
        // this creates a 16-bit signed PCM, stereo 48KHz stream
        //VOSK PCM 16khz 16bit mono
        const audioStream = voice_Connection.receiver.createStream(userId, { mode: 'pcm' })
        audioStream.on('error',  (e) => {
            console.log('audioStream: '   e)
        });
        let buffer = [];
        audioStream.on('data', (data) => {
            buffer.push(data)
        })
        audioStream.on('end', async () => {
            buffer = Buffer.concat(buffer)
            const duration = buffer.length / 48000 / 4;
            console.log("duration: "   duration)

            if (duration < 0.8 || duration > 19) { // 20 seconds max dur
                console.log("TOO SHORT / TOO LONG; SKPPING")
                return;
            }

            try {
                let new_buffer = await convert_audio(buffer)
                let out = await transcribe(new_buffer);
                if (out != null)
                //user.name
                    process_commands_query(out, mapKey, user.id);
            } catch (e) {
                console.log('tmpraw rename: '   e)
            }
        })
}
async function transcribe(buffer) {
    return transcribe_vosk(buffer)
}

So I don't know if my issue comes from my lack of knowledge of discord.js/voice or VOSK. so I guess the most important thing I need to see is if I am creating a proper stream for the Vosk API to capture the audio. if I can figure out how to capture an audio stream I can probably import that in to vosk and figure out how to use vosk myself. but right now I can't even get close!
Thank you in advance...Sorry if this isn't the right place for this
