# NT-TextLoader
[](https://nodesource.com/products/nsolid)
### Description
*A Python module for extracting text content from various file types including PDFs, DOCX, DOC, text files, and images using Optical Character Recognition (OCR).*
### Installation Instructions
Before using this package, ensure you have installed the following system-level dependencies:
### 1.On Linux
- Tesseract OCR and MS Office:
```bash
!apt install tesseract-ocr
!apt install libtesseract-dev
!apt-get --no-install-recommends install libreoffice -y
!apt-get install -y libreoffice-java-common
### 2.On Windows
Simple steps for tesseract installation in windows.
- 1.Download tesseract exe from https://github.com/UB-Mannheim/tesseract/wiki.
- 2.Install this exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\Tesseract-OCR
- 3.Open virtual machine command prompt in windows or anaconda prompt.
- 4.Run pip install pytesseract
To test if tesseract is installed type in python prompt:
```python
import pytesseract
print(pytesseract)
```
## Installation
Install the package using pip:
```bash
pip install NT-TextFileLoader
```
## Usage
```python
from NT_TextFileLoader.text_loader import TextFileLoader
# Load text from a file
file_path = 'path/to/your/file'
extracted_text = TextFileLoader.load_text(file_path,min_text_length=50)
# If the ouput length is lesser than 50(min_text_length) then OCR will be used to extract text.
# Increate the min_text_length value to use OCR.
print(extracted_text)
```
## Supported File Types
- **PDF**: Extracts text from PDF files.
- **DOCX**: Extracts text from DOCX files.
- **DOC**: Extracts text from legacy DOC files.
- **Text files**: Loads text content from TXT files.
- **Images (JPG, PNG, JPEG, WEBP)**: Uses OCR to extract text from images.
## Requirements
