Class TesseractOCRParser

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Initializable, Parser
    public class TesseractOCRParser
extends AbstractExternalProcessParser
implements Initializable
    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);

        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.
        Specified by:
        getSupportedTypes in interface Parser
        Parameters:
        context - parse context
        Returns:
        immutable set of media types

        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.

        Specified by:
        parse in interface Parser
        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

        public String getTesseractPath()

      • setTesseractPath

        @Field
public void setTesseractPath​(String tesseractPath)
        Set the path to the Tesseract executable's directory, needed if it is not on system path.

        Note that if you set this value, it is highly recommended that you also set the path to (and including) the 'tessdata' folder using setTessdataPath(java.lang.String).

      • getTessdataPath

        public String getTessdataPath()

      • setTessdataPath

        @Field
public void setTessdataPath​(String tessdataPath)
        Set the path to the 'tessdata' folder, which contains language files and config files. In some cases (such as on Windows), this folder is found in the Tesseract installation, but in other cases (such as when Tesseract is built from source), it may be located elsewhere.

        Make sure to include the 'tessdata' folder in this path: '/blah/de/blah/tessdata'

      • setImageMagickPath

        @Field
public void setImageMagickPath​(String imageMagickPath)
        Set the path to the ImageMagick executable directory, needed if it is not on system path.
        Parameters:
        imageMagickPath - to ImageMagick executable directory.

      • setTimeout

        @Field
public void setTimeout​(int timeout)
        Set default timeout in seconds. This can be overridden per parse with TikaTaskTimeout sent in via the ParseContext at parse time.
        Parameters:
        timeout -

      • setPreloadLangs

        @Field
public void setPreloadLangs​(boolean preloadLangs)
        If set to true and if tesseract is found, this will load the langs that result from --list-langs. At parse time, the parser will verify that tesseract has the requested lang available.

        If set to false (the default) and tesseract is found, if a user requests a language that tesseract does not have data for, a TikaException will be thrown with tesseract's native exception message, which is a bit less readable.

        Parameters:
        preloadLangs -
