qwen tts: create request: %w

Error message

qwen tts: create request: %w

What it means

After marshaling, Synthesize builds the HTTP POST request with http.NewRequestWithContext against q.BaseURL. If request construction fails (invalid method/URL, malformed base URL) the error is wrapped as 'qwen tts: create request'. It indicates the outgoing request could not even be created.

Solutions

1. Check the TTS base_url in config.toml — it must be a full URL like https://dashscope.aliyuncs.com/api/v1/services/aigc/multimodal-generation/generation.
2. Verify the env var backing BaseURL is set and has no stray whitespace or quotes.
3. Validate the URL with url.ParseRequestURI before constructing the client/client options.

Example fix

// before
q := &core.QwenTTS{BaseURL: cfg.TTSBaseURL} // may be ""
// after
if u, err := url.Parse(cfg.TTSBaseURL); err != nil || u.Scheme == "" {
    log.Fatal("invalid tts base_url")
}
q := &core.QwenTTS{BaseURL: cfg.TTSBaseURL}

u, err := url.ParseRequestURI(cfg.TTSBaseURL)
if err != nil || u.Scheme != "https" && u.Scheme != "http" {
    return fmt.Errorf("invalid tts base_url: %q", cfg.TTSBaseURL)
}

audio, _, err := q.Synthesize(ctx, text, opts)
if err != nil && strings.Contains(err.Error(), "create request") {
    slog.Error("qwen tts: check base_url config", "err", err)
    return fmt.Errorf("TTS is misconfigured (check base_url): %w", err)
}

When it happens

Trigger: http.NewRequestWithContext returns an error, almost always because q.BaseURL is not a valid absolute URL (empty, missing scheme, contains spaces or control characters).

Common situations: Config missing or mistyping the TTS base URL; env var for the endpoint unset leaving BaseURL empty; a trailing typo or whitespace pasted into the configured URL.
