pyTittler

PyTittler is intended to be a pdf file renamer based on user template definition

I'm not a programmer so dont blame me for the messy code, feel free to improve it if you want.

Storyline:

My girlfriend was frustrated do not be able to switch on my PC. (she just missed up switch on the screen)
She unintentionally destroyed it , making it fall from a few meters high.
The hard disk was damaged and with it , my pdf collection (around 50 Go). i managed to recover them using the hard disk serial port. The final files were unamed, and, needed to be checked one by one.
i decided to make an automatic process to perform this task.

Process overview (from program point of view):

Templates are composed of the following items :

category : just a text corresponding to a top folder in the final naming sequence
subcategory/template : just a text corresponding to a sub folder placed into category folder in the final naming sequence
OCRtrigger : a text (redefinable in the edit line of GUI) associated with a trigger zone (Qrect)
a tittle zone : the tittle zone is the pdf zone to be read when the trigger is positive

GUI Overview:

This program is based on the following technologies :

python: python 3.7.5 (i dont know why but this program cannot run into 3.8 for now)
Pyside2 : pyQT5 derivate for python GUI dev
Pillow : image handleling modules/libs
Wand : pdf to image processing core
Tesseract : trained IA to image to text recognizing core

so you'll need the following ressouces: (all are 32bit versions for me) pip ressources :

pytesseract
tesseractOCR
pillow
pyside2
wand third party software (may be installed to get the corresponding python wrapper to work well):
ghost script
imagemagik
tesseract

A big refactoring based on object review and multiprocessing is needed. I will do it later.
