## Rust OCR 替代方案
|
||
|
||
### 1. Rust Tesseract Wrapper
|
||
|
||
**tesseract-rs:**
|
||
```rust
|
||
// Rust wrapper for Tesseract C++
|
||
use tesseract::Tesseract;
|
||
|
||
let mut tess = Tesseract::new();
|
||
tess.set_language("eng");
|
||
tess.set_image("image.png");
|
||
let text = tess.get_text();
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**项目:**
|
||
- https://github.com/antrew/tesseract-rs
|
||
- Rust wrapper around C++ Tesseract
|
||
- Uses unsafe FFI
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
### 2. Pure Rust OCR Engines
|
||
|
||
#### A. **leptess**
|
||
```rust
|
||
use leptess::LepTess;
|
||
|
||
let mut lt = LepTess::new(Some("eng"), "image.png")?;
|
||
let text = lt.get_text()?;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**特点:**
|
||
- Rust wrapper for Leptonica + Tesseract
|
||
- Type-safe bindings
|
||
- Memory-safe interface
|
||
|
||
#### B. **ocropy-rs**
|
||
```rust
|
||
// Python OCRopy port to Rust
|
||
// Experimental project
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**状态:**
|
||
- 实验性项目
|
||
- 功能有限
|
||
|
||
#### C. **cuneiFORM-rs**
|
||
```rust
|
||
// Rust port of cuneiFORM OCR
|
||
// Historical document OCR
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**状态:**
|
||
- 开发中
|
||
|

|
||
| **leptess** | Rust wrapper | ✅ Stable | 99% | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ |
|
||
| **ocropy-rs** | Pure Rust | ⚠️ Experimental | 80% | ⭐⭐⭐ |
|
||
| **cuneiFORM-rs** | Pure Rust | ⚠️ Dev | 70% | ⭐⭐ |

## Telfax 使用方式
|
||
|
||
### 当前实现:Rust + Tesseract C++
|
||
|
||
```rust
|
||
// src/ocr/mod.rs
|
||
pub struct OcrProcessor {
|
||
tesseract_path: String, // Tesseract C++ executable
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
impl OcrProcessor {
|
||
pub fn process_image(&self, image_path: &Path) -> Result<OcrResult> {
|
||
// Call Tesseract C++ via subprocess
|
||
let output = Command::new(&self.tesseract_path)
|
||
.arg(image_path)
|
||
.arg("stdout")
|
||
.output()?;
|
||
|
||
// Parse results in Rust
|
||
let text = String::from_utf8_lossy(&output.stdout).to_string();
|
||
Ok(OcrResult { text, ... })
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**优势:**
|
||
- ✅ 使用成熟的 C++ Tesseract
|
||
- ✅ Rust 提供安全接口
|
||
- ✅ 最佳准确度
|

### Phase 9: Direct FFI Integration
|
||
|
||
**改进方案:**
|
||
|
||
```rust
|
||
// 使用 Rust FFI 直接调用 Tesseract C++ library
|
||
use std::ffi::{CString, CStr};
|
||
use std::ptr;
|
||
|
||
extern "C" {
|
||
fn TessBaseAPICreate() -> *mut TessBaseAPI;
|
||
fn TessBaseAPIInit3(api: *mut TessBaseAPI, lang: *const i8) -> i32;
|
||
fn TessBaseAPIGetUTF8Text(api: *mut TessBaseAPI) -> *mut i8;
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
pub fn process_image_ffi(image_path: &str) -> Result<String> {
|
||
unsafe {
|
||
let api = TessBaseAPICreate();
|
||
let lang = CString::new("eng").unwrap();
|
||
TessBaseAPIInit3(api, lang.as_ptr());
|
||
|
||
let text_ptr = TessBaseAPIGetUTF8Text(api);
|
||
let text = CStr::from_ptr(text_ptr).to_string_lossy().into_owned();
|
||
|
||
Ok(text)
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**优势:**
|
||
```
|
||
✅ 直接调用,更快
|
||
✅ 减少 process overhead
|
||
✅ 更好的内存管理
