v1.4.0
New feature: text recognition (OCR)
The main new feature in this release is the addition of an endpoint for text recognition (OCR) from media files using Tesseract (via pytesseract)!
To use the feature, tesseract needs to be installed; it is already installed in the latest version of the default docker image. The endpoint, /api/media/{handle}/ocr
, is documented in the API specification.
