ocr-tess4j-rest - Java Wrapper for Tesseract OCR with Rest API built over Tess4j (http://tess4j.sourceforge.net).

Tess4J is a JNA wrapper for Tesseract OCR API it provides character recognition support for common image formats, and multi-page images. The library has been developed and tested on Windows and Linux.

docker-compose up

• Spring Boot for Rest
• Spring Boot Data for connecting with mongo db.
• Image + Text (from OCR) is stored in mongo db for ocr/v1/upload endpoint.
• Text of uploaded image is displayed back in response if you use ocr/v1/convert (Testing or if you want to use something else than mongo).
• Rest Assured is used for testing rest (Tess4jV1). Just remove @Ignore on the Tess4jV1SmokeTest and run the rest test after running docker-compose up.
• Logback for logging.
• Gradle for build

** Note: Previous version of ocr-tess4j-rest is at tag 1.1

Added a new endpoint for ease, you can now convert image to text by doing a GET in browser and passing image url to get text as response.

e.g.

http://localhost:8080/ocr/v1/convert?url=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arun0009/ocr-tess4j-rest/master/testocr.png&extension=png
