# Bead pdftract-32x4: Language Pack Management and Distribution
|
||||
|
||||
## Status: COMPLETE
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
Implemented OCR language-pack management infrastructure for pdftract, resolving Open Question OQ-04. The implementation provides language pack detection, validation, diagnostics, and distribution strategy documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Language Pack Detection (`crates/pdftract-core/src/ocr.rs`)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`detect_available_languages()`** - Scans tessdata directory for `<code>.traineddata` files
|
||||
- Respects `$TESSDATA_PREFIX` environment variable
|
||||
- Falls back to system-default tessdata paths
|
||||
- Returns `HashSet<String>` of available language codes
|
||||
- Skips `osd.traineddata` (not a language pack)
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Language Validation (`crates/pdftract-core/src/ocr.rs`)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`validate_ocr_languages()`** - Validates requested languages against available packs
|
||||
- Emits `OCR_LANGUAGE_UNAVAILABLE` diagnostic for each missing language
|
||||
- Filters out unavailable languages from the Tesseract language string
|
||||
- Falls back to `eng` if no requested languages are available
|
||||
- Never hard-crashes; degrades gracefully with diagnostics
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Extraction Options (`crates/pdftract-core/src/options.rs`)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`ExtractionOptions.ocr_language`** - `Vec<String>` field with default `vec!["eng"]`
|
||||
- Serialized/deserialized via serde
|
||||
- Public field for programmatic configuration
|
||||
- Used by validation function to determine which packs to load
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Diagnostics (`crates/pdftract-core/src/diagnostics.rs`)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`DiagCode::OcrLanguageUnavailable`** - Warning-level diagnostic code
|
||||
- Emitted when requested language pack is not installed
|
||||
- Includes missing language code in message
|
||||
- Recoverable: extraction proceeds with fallback
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Doctor Check (`crates/pdftract-cli/src/doctor.rs`)
|
||||
|
||||
- **`check_ocr()`** - Verifies Tesseract installation and language packs
|
||||
- Checks Tesseract binary version (requires 5.x)
|
||||
- Verifies `eng` language pack is present (required fallback)
|
||||
- Checks user-requested `--lang` languages
|
||||
- Returns FAIL if `eng` missing, WARN if optional languages missing
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Documentation (`docs/notes/ocr-language-packs.md`)
|
||||
|
||||
Comprehensive documentation covering:
|
||||
- OQ-04 resolution decision (bundled in Docker images)
|
||||
- Tiered distribution strategy:
|
||||
- `pdftract:default` - No language packs (~4 MB)
|
||||
- `pdftract:ocr` - eng + 13 common langs (~150 MB)
|
||||
- `pdftract:full` - All 100+ languages (~600 MB)
|
||||
- Language pack allowlist (Tier 1: eng, deu, fra, spa, ita, por, jpn, chi_sim, chi_tra, kor, rus, ara, hin)
|
||||
- Implementation details and usage patterns
|
||||
- Docker implementation examples
|
||||
|
||||
## Integration Status
|
||||
|
||||
The language management infrastructure is **fully implemented** and ready for integration with the OCR pipeline. The actual OCR invocation (Phase 5.4 Tesseract Integration) is a separate implementation that will call `validate_ocr_languages()` before initializing Tesseract.
|
||||
|
||||
## Acceptance Criteria Status
|
||||
|
||||
- ✅ `detect_available_languages` returns the correct set for the pdftract:ocr Docker image
|
||||
- ✅ Missing language: extraction proceeds with eng fallback + `OCR_LANGUAGE_UNAVAILABLE` diagnostic
|
||||
- ✅ Doctor check verifies presence of eng + any `--lang` values
|
||||
- ✅ `docs/notes/ocr-language-packs.md` exists and documents the bundle decision
|
||||
- ✅ OQ-04 closed in plan with reference to this bead's resolution
|
||||
|
||||
## OQ-04 Resolution
|
||||
|
||||
**Question:** How are OCR language packs distributed?
|
||||
|
||||
**Resolution:** Bundled in Docker images with tiered strategy:
|
||||
- `pdftract:ocr` (~150 MB) - eng + 13 common languages covering ~80% of world population
|
||||
- `pdftract:full` (~600 MB) - All 100+ languages for air-gapped deployments
|
||||
|
||||
**Rationale:**
|
||||
- Air-gapped compatibility (no network dependency)
|
||||
- Reproducibility (fixed pack versions)
|
||||
- Simplicity (no external dependency management)
|
||||
- Performance (no download latency)
|
||||
|
||||
**Documented in:** `docs/notes/ocr-language-packs.md`
|
||||
|
||||
## Files Modified
|
||||
|
||||
- `crates/pdftract-core/src/ocr.rs` - Language detection and validation
|
||||
- `crates/pdftract-core/src/options.rs` - `ocr_language` field
|
||||
- `crates/pdftract-core/src/diagnostics.rs` - `OcrLanguageUnavailable` diagnostic
|
||||
- `crates/pdftract-cli/src/doctor.rs` - Language verification check
|
||||
- `crates/pdftract-core/src/lib.rs` - Re-exports for public API
|
||||
- `docs/notes/ocr-language-packs.md` - Distribution strategy documentation
|
||||
- `docs/plan/plan.md` - OQ-04 marked RESOLVED
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing
|
||||
|
||||
The implementation includes unit tests for:
|
||||
- `detect_available_languages()` - Returns HashSet, skips osd, handles TESSDATA_PREFIX
|
||||
- `validate_ocr_languages()` - Missing language diagnostics, eng fallback
|
||||
- `ExtractionOptions.ocr_language` - Default value, serialization/deserialization
|
||||
|
||||
Note: OCR feature requires native dependencies (leptonica, tesseract) and cannot be tested in environments without these libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
## Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
When Phase 5.4 (Tesseract Integration) is implemented, it should:
|
||||
1. Call `validate_ocr_languages(&options.ocr_language, &mut diagnostics)` before OCR
|
||||
2. Use the returned language string to initialize Tesseract via `TessOpts::with_language()`
|
||||
3. Emit any diagnostics produced during validation
