//Start Up our server
const PORT = 5000 || process.env.PORT;
app.listen(PORT, () => console.log(`Hey I am running on port ${PORT}`));
the error I get is this
D:\ML\OCR\app.js:34
.progress(progress => {
TypeError: worker.recognize(...).progress is not a function
at D:\ML\OCR\app.js:34:18
I know worker.recognize/.progress is decapitated but can someone please correct this code.
Thank you.
I am trying to create an OCR using tesseract.js . watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1I3tcALTlc
But I am not able to find a solution.
I think the issue is that the code is out of date.
Try this
async function getTextFromImage() {
await worker.load()
await worker.loadLanguage('eng')
await worker.initialize('eng')
const { data: { text } } = await worker.recognize(data);
res.send(text);
console.log(text);
await worker.terminate()
getTextFromImage();
