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::NutritionFactsLabel::NutritionFactsLabelV1
)
# Print a full summary of the parsed data in RST format
puts result.document
# Print the document-level parsed data
# puts result.document.inference.predictionSample Output (rST)

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 benilif 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, alwaysnilwhen 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.
