Provide template for processors #272

Closed b2m closed 1 year ago

b2m commented 3 years ago

When implementing new processors (or reimplementing old ones) there usually is a lot of copy and paste involved.

To ease this process and enhance the uniformity of the projects the OCR-D project could provide a starter template.

One common technology for generating such templates is cookiecutter.

GitHub also know the concept of Template Repositories.

A minimal processor project that could be used as a template is https://github.com/kba/ocrd_vandalize.

But with everything else that needs doing and unless somebody volunteers to turn that into a GH repo or cookiecutter template, I don't think it's realistic that we will provide this.
