espeakbox GET request

[cainesap]

Hi, sorry this is maybe a really stupid question but I'm new to Docker and the README takes a bit of a leap at the point where it says "API", "Request". I've cloned and built the repository. I've installed Docker and am running the espeakbox container. But now how to run that GET /speech?text= request please? I can't work it out.

The simplest way to test is to:

1. Find the IP address of your docker host. If you're running docker on a VM, get that IP address, for example.
2. Open a web browser.
3. Visit http://<that IP address>:8080/speech?text=testing

This assumes you ran the docker container with port 8080 on the inside of the container mapped to 8080 on the outside as in the README sample command. If not, switch the port in the URL above to whatever you chose.
