README

A wrapper to work with Gocr inside PHP scripts.

Why?

This project makes easier the use of the OCR software named GOCR.

Dependencies

Installation

$ composer require shinbuntu/gocr-php

Usage

Instantiate the Gocr object with the image path:

$gocr = new Gocr('testData/images/welcome.png');

Recognize and get text content:

$textContent = $gocr->recognize();

Set spacewidth between words in units of dots (default: 0 for autodetect):

Wider widths are interpreted as word spaces, smaller as character spaces.

$gocr->setSpaceWidthParam(20);

Set Operational mode; mode is a bitfield (default: 0):

$gocr->setModeParam(258);

Set value for certainty of recognition (0..100; default: 95):

Characters with a higher certainty are accepted, characters with a lower certainty are treated as unknown (not recognized); set higher values, if you want to have only more certain recognized characters.

$gocr->setValueForCertaintyOfRecognitionParam(100);

Set database path, a final slash must be included, default is ./db/:

This path will be populated with images of learned characters.

$gocr->setDatabasePathParam('testData/db/');
