Class TesseractOCRParser

java.lang.Object

org.apache.tika.parser.AbstractParser

org.apache.tika.parser.ocr.TesseractOCRParser

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Parser

public class TesseractOCRParser
extends AbstractParser

TesseractOCRParser powered by tesseract-ocr engine. To enable this parser, create a TesseractOCRConfig object and pass it through a ParseContext. Tesseract-ocr must be installed and on system path or the path to its root folder must be provided:

TesseractOCRConfig config = new TesseractOCRConfig();
//Needed if tesseract is not on system path
config.setTesseractPath(tesseractFolder);
parseContext.set(TesseractOCRConfig.class, config);

Method Detail

getSupportedTypes

public Set<MediaType> getSupportedTypes(ParseContext context)

Description copied from interface: Parser

Returns the set of media types supported by this parser when used with the given parse context.

Parameters:

context - parse context

Returns:

immutable set of media types

hasTesseract

public boolean hasTesseract(TesseractOCRConfig config)

parse

public void parse(Image image,
                  ContentHandler handler,
                  Metadata metadata,
                  ParseContext context)
           throws IOException,
                  SAXException,
                  TikaException

Throws:

IOException

parse

public void parse(InputStream stream,
                  ContentHandler handler,
                  Metadata metadata,
                  ParseContext parseContext)
           throws IOException,
                  SAXException,
                  TikaException

Description copied from interface: Parser

Parses a document stream into a sequence of XHTML SAX events. Fills in related document metadata in the given metadata object.

The given document stream is consumed but not closed by this method. The responsibility to close the stream remains on the caller.

Information about the parsing context can be passed in the context parameter. See the parser implementations for the kinds of context information they expect.

Parameters:

stream - the document stream (input)

handler - handler for the XHTML SAX events (output)

metadata - document metadata (input and output)

parseContext - parse context

Throws:

IOException - if the document stream could not be read

SAXException - if the SAX events could not be processed

TikaException - if the document could not be parsed

parseInline

public void parseInline(InputStream stream,
                        XHTMLContentHandler xhtml,
                        TesseractOCRConfig config)
                 throws IOException,
                        SAXException,
                        TikaException

Deprecated. use parseInline(InputStream, XHTMLContentHandler, ParseContext, TesseractOCRConfig)

Use this to parse content without starting a new document. This appends SAX events to xhtml without re-adding the metadata, body start, etc.

Parameters:

stream - inputstream

xhtml - handler

config - TesseractOCRConfig to use for this parse

Throws:

IOException

SAXException

TikaException

parseInline

public void parseInline(InputStream stream,
                        XHTMLContentHandler xhtml,
                        ParseContext parseContext,
                        TesseractOCRConfig config)
                 throws IOException,
                        SAXException,
                        TikaException

Use this to parse content without starting a new document. This appends SAX events to xhtml without re-adding the metadata, body start, etc.

Parameters:

stream - inputstream

xhtml - handler

config - TesseractOCRConfig to use for this parse

Throws:

IOException

SAXException

TikaException
