This project contains source code and supporting files for a serverless application that automatically extract text from scanned pdf files using AWS Textract.
The following must be done before following this guide:
- Setup an AWS account.
- Configure the AWS CLI with user credentials.
- Install AWS CLI.
- AWS SAM CLI.
- jq (optional).
$sam deploy --capabilities CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM --guided
After you upload a pdf file into S3 bucket deployed, there will be a text file created automatically in the same bucket.
You can also call api gateway endpoint path /textract to get Textract result by job id. eg.
$curl -d '{"jobId":"xxxxx2bd5ad43875edxxxx5aee29b65f273fxxxxx"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://xxxx.execute-api.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/textract | jq '.'
