ocr-models

A registry of models for OCR engines

Setup

Unless you intend to develop your own version of the model registry, you won't need to actually clone this repo.

Initialize the submodules

Unless you did a recursive clone (git clone --recursive https://github.com/kba/ocr-models):

git submodule init
git submodule update

Validate the metadata

make validate

This will apply the JSON schema for the metadata to the DESCRIPTION JSON file of all models.

Build the ZIP archives

make zip

Build the database

make db

Development server

Install node modules:

npm install

To get a development server up, run npm start-dev.

Server will be available on http://localhost:3002.

Production server

Run the docker image

docker run --rm -it -p 3002:3002 kbai/ocr-models

Proxy through Apache

Enable the proxy_http apache module. In Debian:

a2enmod http_proxy

Add a location directive to an enabled site, such as /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf:

<Location /ocr-models/>
    ProxyPass http://localhost:3002/ retry=0
    ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:3002/
</Location>

Restart apache

service apache2 restart
# or, if using systemd
systemctl restart apache2.service
