In this section we will wire together a number of Spring components and inject services into them. Together these components will implement the following functionality:
- Turn the FlightUpdateNotification into the text for an announcement
- Turn the announcement into an MP3 stream using the Google Text To Speech API
- Put the MP3 file for the announcement in the Airport’s Public Dropbox folder (and return a direct link to it)
Using this combined functionality, we can extend the FlightUpdateNotificationService with a new channel that publishes a public tweet regarding the flight status change with a link to the audio file.
