Because I have stuck on the this question for two days, I take some notes to remind me of deeploying the Tesseract-OCR to Heroku. First, Tesseract is an OCR sponsored by Google. It is open-source and its binaries are available for lots of platforms, Additionally, it is a popular go-to library when OCR functionalities are required in an app. Setting up Tesseract-OCR is a procedure in popular development environments such as Heroku.Most of all, the following article is the process of deploying and coding.
import pytesseract
from PIL import Image
pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = '/app/.apt/usr/bin/tesseract'
image = Image.open(path)
t = pytesseract.image_to_string(image)
line_bot_api.reply_message(event.reply_token,TextSendMessage(text=t))Focus on the path!!! -> '/app/.apt/usr/bin/tesseract'
You can use the command following:
heroku buildpacks:add --index 1 https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-apt
or you can input the https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-apt by using Graphical interface on heroku
tesseract-ocr
tesseract-ocr-eng
You must create the file named as Aptfile, or the error will emerge.
3.set a heroku config variable named TESSDATA_PREFIX. This is the path to the data downloaded by the tesseract-ocr-eng package.
You can use the command following:
heroku config:set TESSDATA_PREFIX=/app/.apt/usr/share/tesseract-ocr/tessdata
or you can input the TESSDATA_PREFIX=/app/.apt/usr/share/tesseract-ocr/tessdata by using Graphical interface on heroku
1.I got errors when I paste the tesseract-ocr into the requirements.txt.Because
- I used to add buildpack on heroku, I always need to input my required module into requirements.txt. But in this case,you never need the requirements.txt.
2.You must set a heroku config variable named TESSDATA_PREFIX, and inputing the TESSDATA_PREFIX's path.
- the error image of ignoring the configuration of variable named TESSDATA_PREFIX
- First I would execuate the cmd command on heroku CLI and perform certain commands in the following commands.I should step into bash in order to find the path of tesseract on heroku bash.
heroku run bash
which tesseract
.......
- Focus on fourth line
