push image in addition to pull #12

Closed mcqueenorama closed 10 years ago

mcqueenorama commented 10 years ago

I've never messed with Go, so I haven't figured out the code yet. The examples show it pulling images. I want to do a push - a POST with different -d '{"img_url":"http://bit.ly/ocrimage","engine":"tesseract"}' maybe. I suppose it supports that already. If not where do I look in the code to figure out how that's handled so I can tweek it.

Do you mean file upload of image via multipart/related as described in https://github.com/tleyden/open-ocr/issues/7? That's been recently finished and working on the master branch, ready for testing. It's not quite finished being documented though (which is why I haven't closed #7 yet)

Curl cannot do multipart/related requests, so I can't provide a curl example. The closes thing I have to example code is here:

https://github.com/tleyden/open-ocr-client/blob/master/ocr_http_client.go#L27-L113

Essentially you make a multipart/related POST, with the first part being the JSON, and the second part being the image data.

Yea that looks like what I want. I'll try it out locally from master. I've been using a tutem-based docker deploy. That example code should be helpful for getting it figured out better.

tleyden commented 10 years ago

Here's what I would suggest:

Run this code in open-ocr-client against your api server running on tutum
Make sure it actually works (now you know the server side is working for sure)
Record the traffic via HTTPScoop or Charles Proxy
Write your own client code to do the same request
If things don't work, record the traffic and compare it with the previous recorded traffic to see what is different.

I'll close the ticket, feel free to re-open it if you find issues.

@mcqueenorama I just added comprehensive API docs that has a built-in mocking server and traffic recorder/viewer.

Definitely check out http://docs.openocr.apiary.io/, it should make your life much easier.

mcqueenorama commented 10 years ago

Yea, that looks good! Thanks. I'll be working on it again this weekend.

Why did you post a reply about couchbase-lite? Was that a mistake? I don't see the connection to the question.

tleyden commented 10 years ago

@mcqueenorama weird, must have been a copy/paste error. Working on Couchbase Lite is my day job.
