Mindee API Helper Library for Ruby

Quickly and easily connect to Mindee's API services using Ruby.

Requirements

The following Ruby versions are tested and supported: 2.6, 2.7, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2

Quick Start

Here's the TL;DR of getting started.

First, get an API Key

Install by adding this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mindee'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Finally, Ruby away!

Loading a File and Parsing It

Global Documents

require 'mindee'

# Init a new client
mindee_client = Mindee::Client.new(api_key: 'my-api-key')

# Load a file from disk and parse it
result = mindee_client.doc_from_path('/path/to/the/file.ext')
  .parse(Mindee::Prediction::InvoiceV4)

# Print a full summary of the parsed data in RST format
puts result

Region-Specific Documents

require 'mindee'

# Init a new client
mindee_client = Mindee::Client.new(api_key: 'my-api-key')

# Load a file from disk and parse it
result = mindee_client.doc_from_path('/path/to/the/file.ext')
  .parse(Mindee::Prediction::EU::LicensePlateV1)

# Print a full summary of the parsed data in RST format
puts result.document

Custom Document (API Builder)

require 'mindee'

# Init a new client and configure your custom document
mindee_client = Mindee::Client.new(api_key: 'my-api-key').add_endpoint(
  'john',
  'wnine'
)

# Load a file from disk and parse it
result = mindee_client.doc_from_path('/path/to/the/file.ext')
  .parse(Mindee::Prediction::CustomV1, endpoint_name: 'wnine')

# Print a full summary of the parsed data in RST format
puts result

# Looping over all prediction values
result.inference.prediction.fields.each do |field_name, field_data|
  puts field_name
  puts field_data.values
  puts field_data.to_s
end
