Quick-Start

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

Sample Code

#
# Install the Ruby client library by running:
# gem install mindee
#

require 'mindee'

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

# Load a file from disk
input_source = mindee_client.source_from_path('/path/to/the/file.ext')

# Parse the file
result = mindee_client.parse(
  input_source,
  Mindee::Product::Receipt::ReceiptV5,
  enqueue: false
)

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

# Print the document-level parsed data
# puts result.document.inference.prediction

You can also call this product asynchronously:

#
# Install the Ruby client library by running:
# gem install mindee
#

require 'mindee'

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

# Load a file from disk
input_source = mindee_client.source_from_path('/path/to/the/file.ext')

# Parse the file
result = mindee_client.parse(
  input_source,
  Mindee::Product::Receipt::ReceiptV5
)

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

# Print the document-level parsed data
# puts result.document.inference.prediction

Standard Fields

These fields are generic and used in several products.

Basic Field

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

• value (String, Float, Integer, bool): corresponds to the field value. Can be nil if no value was extracted.

• confidence (Float, nil): the confidence score of the field prediction.

• bounding_box (Mindee::Geometry::Quadrilateral, nil): contains exactly 4 relative vertices (points) coordinates of a right rectangle containing the field in the document.

• polygon (Mindee::Geometry::Polygon, nil): contains the relative vertices coordinates (Point) of a polygon containing the field in the image.

• page_id (Integer, nil): the ID of the page, always nil when at document-level.

• reconstructed (bool): indicates whether an object was reconstructed (not extracted as the API gave it).

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

AddressField

Aside from the basic BaseField attributes, the address field AddressField also implements the following:

• street_number (String): String representation of the street number. Can be nil.

• street_name (String): Name of the street. Can be nil.

• po_box (String): String representation of the PO Box number. Can be nil.

• address_complement (String): Address complement. Can be nil.

• city (String): City name. Can be nil.

• postal_code (String): String representation of the postal code. Can be nil.

• state (String): State name. Can be nil.

• country (String): Country name. Can be nil.

The value field of an AddressField should be a concatenation of the rest of the values.

Amount Field

The amount field AmountField only has one constraint: its value is a Float (or nil).

Classification Field

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

A classification field's value is always a String.

Company Registration Field

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

• type (String): the type of company.

Date Field

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

• date_object (Date): an accessible representation of the value as a JavaScript object.

Locale Field

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

• language (String): ISO 639-1 language code (e.g.: en for English). Can be nil.

• 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 nil.

• currency (String): ISO 4217 code for currencies (e.g.: USD for "US Dollars"). Can be nil.

String Field

The text field StringField only has one constraint: it's value is a String (or nil).

Taxes Field

Tax

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

• rate (Float): the tax rate applied to an item can be expressed as a percentage. Can be nil.

• code (String): tax code (or equivalent, depending on the origin of the document). Can be nil.

• base (Float): base amount used for the tax. Can be nil.

• value (Float): the value of the tax. Can be nil.

Currently TaxField is not used on its own, and is accessed through a parent Taxes object, an array-like structure.

Taxes (Array)

The Taxes field represents an array-like collection of TaxField objects. As it is the representation of several objects, it has access to a custom to_s 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 all line items on the receipt.

A ReceiptV5LineItem implements the following attributes:

• description (String): The item description.

• quantity (Float): The item quantity.

• total_amount (Float): The item total amount.

• unit_price (Float): The item unit price.
