node-tesseract
Tesseract OCR bindings for Node.js.
I started developing of this module when had a need to have Tesseract working with Node.js. But found that
existing modules do call tesseract
command-line tool. And I have a need in fully customizable API. I started
from this article and now working with Tesseract 3.02 API
documentation. So soon will have much more things implemented! 😉
Example
var tesseract = tess = pix; // set languagetess;// set imagetess;// run recognitiontess;// get recognized textconsole; // clear resultstessclear; // create Pix object (wrapper for Leptonica PIX structure)pix = "other-image.png";// Pix can be used in BaseApi::SetImage() tootess;// again recognize and get texttess;console; // finish him! - free memory of underlying TessBaseAPI objecttess;
TODO
- Make class BaseApi support more of TessBaseAPI
- Make tests
- Changelog
- Support of other Tesseract APIs (someday)!
