If you want to use this program, navigate to V2.0 branch and follow the instructions down below
### Requirements:
- User Interface:
- ElectronJS
- Backend Server:
- Python3
- Nodejs
- Tesseract-OCR 5
### Installation:
- Flask server:
- opencv-python
- numpy
- flask
- flask-cors
- mss
- python-dotenv
- NodeJS server:
- "npm install"
- Tesseract-OCR 5:
- Download from https://digi.bib.uni-mannheim.de/tesseract/?C=M;O=A
- Download best pre-trained models from https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata_best
- For Japanese language (horizontal and vertical), choose https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata_best/blob/master/jpn.traineddata and https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata_best/blob/master/jpn_vert.traineddata
- Drag jpn.traineddata and jpn_vert.traineddata to Tesseract-OCR/tessdata
- Go to backendServer/node-tesseract-ocr.js and update Tesseract-OCR's directory
- For Window environment, I would the whole folder inside backendServer/
### Activation (same for MacOS):
- One terminal for User Interface:
```
cd Visual-Novel-OCR/userInterface
npm start
```
- One terminal for NodeJS server:
```
cd Visual-Novel-OCR/backendServer
node server.js
```
- One terminal for Python Flask server:
```
cd Visual-Novel-OCR/backendServer
python3 -m flask run
```
Note: Window developers can click on Visual Novel OCR.bat to open all three commands at the same time
### Build:
- User Interface:
- "npm package"
### INSTALLATION FOR MACOS (CREDIT TO @pakoito FOR THE INITIAL GUIDE):
- Tesseract-OCR (may need some adjustment on your side):
- For Japanese language (horizontal and vertical), choose https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata_best/blob/master/jpn.traineddata and https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata_best/blob/master/jpn_vert.traineddata
```
brew install tesseract
cp ~/Downloads/jpn.traineddata /usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/4.1.1/share/tessdata/jpn.traineddata
cp ~/Downloads/jpn_vert.traineddata /usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/4.1.1/share/tessdata/jpn_vert.traineddata
```
```
git clone https://github.com/leminhyen2/Visual-Novel-OCR.git
```
- One terminal for User Interface:
```
cd Visual-Novel-OCR/userInterface
npm install
npm start
```
- One terminal for NodeJS server (install packages and change Tesseract directory):
```
cd Visual-Novel-OCR/backendServer
vi node-tesseract-ocr.js
# - const binary = "Tesseract-OCR\\tesseract.exe"
# + const binary = "/usr/local/Cellar/tesseract/4.1.1/bin/tesseract"
npm install
node server.js
```
- One terminal for Python Flask server:
```
cd Visual-Novel-OCR/backendServer
pip3 install opencv-python numpy flask flask-cors mss python-dotenv
python3 -m flask run
```
- Note: you can automate all these by writing a shell script
