Radio group

Single select by voice: “size large” picks Large.

Say the command followed by an option. The group claims the phrase only when something follows the command, then matches the remainder against options as whole words — longest matching phrase wins, so “Very Satisfied” beats “Satisfied” when both fit. aliases map spoken words to option values, which is how “standard” selects STD.

function Demo() {  const [size, setSize] = useState("Medium");  return (    <ListensRadioGroup      label="Size"      command="size"      options={["Small", "Medium", "Large"]}      value={size}      onChange={setSize}    />  );}

Aliases for spoken names

Option values are often codes or abbreviations nobody would say aloud. aliases maps each value to the phrases people actually speak.

Hold anywhere and say:“shipping express”“shipping overnight”

React
import { ListensRadioGroup } from "@listenssoft/speechui-react";import { useState } from "react";
function Demo() {  const [shipping, setShipping] = useState("STD");  return (    <ListensRadioGroup      label="Shipping"      command="shipping"      options={["STD", "EXP", "PRI"]}      aliases={{        STD: ["standard", "regular"],        EXP: ["express", "fast"],        PRI: ["priority", "overnight"],      }}      value={shipping}      onChange={setShipping}    />  );}

What you can say

SayEffect
“size large”Selects “Large”. The command must lead the phrase, with the option after it.
“size extra large”Selects the longest option whose words all appear — “Extra Large” beats “Large” when both are options.
“shipping overnight”Aliases resolve to their option value (“overnight” → PRI).
“large (alone)”No effect — without the leading command the group never claims the phrase.

Matching is whole-word: “size l” matches nothing, and stray words around the option are fine (“size large please”).

Extra props

PropTypeDefaultDescription
options*string[]—The selectable values, rendered as radios in order.

onChange(value: string) => void—Called with the selected value — click or speech.
onMatch(value: string) => void—Called when speech (not clicking) selects an option.
aliasesRecord<string, string[]>—Spoken aliases per option value, e.g. { SM: ["small"] }. The option value is returned, not the alias.
namestring—Name attribute for the radio inputs (one is generated when omitted).
classNamestring—Extra class name(s) on the root.
classNamesListensRadioGroupClassNames—Per-part class overrides (label, listeningLabel, group, option). Each is appended after the component's own classes, so your rules win without extra specificity.

Styling hooks

classNames parts and CSS classes

HookTypeDefaultDescription
classNames.group / .listens-radio-group-optionsclass—The wrapper around the options.
classNames.option / .listens-radio-group-optionclass—Each option label (wrapping its radio).

--listens-interactivetoken—The radio accent color.

Behavior notes

  • All frameworks: The radio group uses the two-pass claim flow: it claims only when the command leads with a non-empty remainder, so “size” alone leaves the transcript for others.
