This repository is a Ruby reference client implementation for working with the Sypht API at https://api.sypht.com.
Sypht is a SaaS API which extracts key fields from documents. For example, you can upload an image or pdf of a bill or invoice and extract the amount due, due date, invoice number and biller information.
To get started you'll need API credentials, i.e. a <client_id> and <client_secret>, which can be obtained by registering
for an account
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'sypht'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install sypht
require 'sypht'
# API_KEY is stored as env variable in the format client_id:client_secret
client_id, client_secret = ENV['SYPHT_API_KEY'].split(":")
# Create new Sypht Client
@client = Sypht::Client.new(client_id, client_secret)
# Submit a file for upload, along with a list of fieldsets
fid = @client.upload("samples/sample_invoice.pdf", ['sypht.invoice'])
# get results of the file based on fid
results = @client.fetch_results fidor run it in the command line:
$ sypht extract --fieldset sypht.document --fieldset sypht.invoice path/to/your/document.pdf
You need to install Ruby (2.5+), which can be installed using RVM
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To build and test the gem locally, run rake install, which will package the gem to "pkg/sypht-.gem", and install it in the current ruby.
You can then run irb and use the gem as mentioned in the usage section.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
