The PHP OCR SDK supports the Resume API.

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

Quick-Start

<?php

use Mindee\Client;
use Mindee\Product\Resume\ResumeV1;

// 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(ResumeV1::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.

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`.

The text field StringField implements the following:

  • value (string): represents the value of the field as a string.
