searmage
Searmage is a CLI tool for searching through your local images. It can watch a folder and build up an index for quickly searching through images later. Powered by Tesseract and SQLite.
example
Check out this repo and run make build
./bin/searmage -dir /some/folder/with/images -db /tmp/searmage.sqlite3
This will parse images in the given directory for any text, and then store the text within the sqlite database.
./bin/searmage -search '%the meaning of life%' -db /tmp/searmage.sqlite3
This will search the previously parsed image text and return with the path of matching images.
./bin/searmage -help
Will expose further flags, outlined at cfg/args.go
C
With CGO_ENABLED=0 Wazero is used to run Tesseract and SQLite, which have both been compiled to WASM. With CGO_ENABLED=1 however you can use a locally installed Tesseract instead. Here's an example on how to install Tesseract locally.
sudo apt-get install -y -qq libtesseract-dev libleptonica-dev tesseract-ocr-eng
The CGO_ENABLED=0 version is currently roughly 6 times slower.
