Invoice OCR PHP

Suggest Edits

The PHP OCR SDK supports the Invoice API.

Using the sample below, we are going to illustrate how to extract the data that we want using the OCR SDK.
Invoice sample

Quick-Start

<?php

use Mindee\Client;
use Mindee\Product\Invoice\InvoiceV4;

// Init a new client
$mindeeClient = new Client("my-api-key");

// Load a file from disk
$inputSource = $mindeeClient->sourceFromPath("/path/to/the/file.ext");

// Parse the file
$apiResponse = $mindeeClient->parse(InvoiceV4::class, $inputSource);

echo $apiResponse->document;

You can also call this product asynchronously:

<?php

use Mindee\Client;
use Mindee\Product\Invoice\InvoiceV4;

// Init a new client
$mindeeClient = new Client("my-api-key");

// Load a file from disk
$inputSource = $mindeeClient->sourceFromPath("/path/to/the/file.ext");

// Parse the file asynchronously
$apiResponse = $mindeeClient->enqueueAndParse(InvoiceV4::class, $inputSource);

echo $apiResponse->document;

Output (RST):

Field Types

Standard Fields

These fields are generic and used in several products.

BaseField

Each prediction object contains a set of fields that inherit from the generic BaseField class.
A typical BaseField object will have the following attributes:

  • value (float|string): corresponds to the field value. Can be null if no value was extracted.
  • confidence (float): the confidence score of the field prediction.
  • boundingBox ([Point, Point, Point, Point]): contains exactly 4 relative vertices (points) coordinates of a right rectangle containing the field in the document.
  • polygon (Point[]): contains the relative vertices coordinates (Point) of a polygon containing the field in the image.
  • pageId (integer): the ID of the page, always null when at document-level.
  • reconstructed (bool): indicates whether an object was reconstructed (not extracted as the API gave it).

Note: A Point simply refers to a list of two numbers ([float, float]).

Aside from the previous attributes, all basic fields have access to a custom __toString method that can be used to print their value as a string.

AmountField

The amount field AmountField only has one constraint: its value is an optional ?float.

ClassificationField

The classification field ClassificationField does not implement all the basic BaseField attributes. It only implements value, confidence and pageId.

Note: a classification field's value is always a string`.

CompanyRegistrationField

Aside from the basic BaseField attributes, the company registration field CompanyRegistrationField also implements the following:

  • type (string): the type of company.

DateField

Aside from the basic BaseField attributes, the date field DateField also implements the following:

  • dateObject (date): an accessible representation of the value as a php object. Can be null.

LocaleField

The locale field LocaleField only implements the value, confidence and pageId base BaseField attributes, but it comes with its own:

  • language (string): ISO 639-1 language code (e.g.: en for English). Can be null.
  • country (string): ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 code for countries (e.g.: GRB or GB for "Great Britain"). Can be null.
  • currency (string): ISO 4217 code for currencies (e.g.: USD for "US Dollars"). Can be null.

PaymentDetailsField

Aside from the basic BaseField attributes, the payment details field PaymentDetailsField also implements the following:

  • accountNumber (string): number of an account, expressed as a string. Can be null.
  • iban (string): International Bank Account Number. Can be null.
  • routingNumber (string): routing number of an account. Can be null.
  • swift (string): the account holder's bank's SWIFT Business Identifier Code (BIC). Can be null.

StringField

The text field StringField implements the following:

  • value (string): represents the value of the field as a string.
  • rawValue (string): the value of the string as it appears on the document.

TaxesField

Tax

Aside from the basic BaseField attributes, the tax field TaxField also implements the following:

  • rate (float): the tax rate applied to an item expressed as a percentage. Can be null.
  • code (string): tax code (or equivalent, depending on the origin of the document). Can be null.
  • base (float): base amount used for the tax. Can be null.

Note: currently TaxField is not used on its own, and is accessed through a parent Taxes object, a list-like structure.

Taxes (Array)

The Taxes field represents a list-like collection of TaxField objects. As it is the representation of several objects, it has access to a custom __toString method that can render a TaxField object as a table line.

Specific Fields

Fields which are specific to this product; they are not used in any other product.

Line Items Field

List of line item details.

A InvoiceV4LineItem implements the following attributes:

  • description (string): The item description.
  • productCode (string): The product code referring to the item.
  • quantity (float): The item quantity
  • taxAmount (float): The item tax amount.
  • taxRate (float): The item tax rate in percentage.
