Add image_url_to_string #415

Open iPurya opened 2 years ago

iPurya commented 2 years ago

add image_url_to_string function to use image direct link instead filename. tesseract 5.1 already have this feature.

If tesseract 5.1 supports it, you can just try to use:

pytesseract.image_to_string('https://url')
iPurya commented 2 years ago

this method tries to open the file and when im using url it raise error.
