## Local Installation Check here for examples: https://github.com/naptha/tesseract.js/blob/master/docs/examples.md In browser environment, `tesseract.js` simply provides the API layer. Internally, it opens a WebWorker to handle requests. That worker itself loads code from the Emscripten-built `tesseract.js-core` which itself is hosted on a CDN. Then it dynamically loads language files hosted on another CDN. Because of this we recommend loading `tesseract.js` from a CDN. But if you really need to have all your files local, you can pass extra arguments to `TesseractWorker` to specify custom paths for workers, languages, and core. In Node.js environment, the only path you may want to customize is languages/langPath. ```javascript Tesseract.recognize(image, langs, { workerPath: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tesseract.js@v4.0.3/dist/worker.min.js', langPath: 'https://tessdata.projectnaptha.com/4.0.0', corePath: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tesseract.js-core@v4.0.3', }) ``` Or ```javascript const worker = await createWorker({ workerPath: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tesseract.js@v4.0.3/dist/worker.min.js', langPath: 'https://tessdata.projectnaptha.com/4.0.0', corePath: 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tesseract.js-core@v4.0.3', }); ``` ### workerPath A string specifying the location of the `worker.js` file. ### langPath A string specifying the location of the tesseract language files, with default value 'https://tessdata.projectnaptha.com/4.0.0'. Language file URLs are calculated according to the formula `langPath + langCode + '.traineddata.gz'`. ### corePath A string specifying the location of the [tesseract.js-core](https://github.com/naptha/tesseract.js-core) files, with default value 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tesseract.js-core@v4.0.3'. `corePath` should be set to a directory containing both `tesseract-core-simd.wasm.js` and `tesseract-core.wasm.js`. Tesseract.js will load either `tesseract-core-simd.wasm.js` or `tesseract-core.wasm.js` from the directory depending on whether the users' device supports SIMD (see [https://webassembly.org/roadmap/](https://webassembly.org/roadmap/)). To avoid breaking old code, when `corePath` is set to a specific `.js` file (e.g. `https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/tesseract.js-core@v4.0.3/tesseract-core.wasm.js`), it will load that file regardless of whether the users' device supports SIMD or not. This behavior only exists to preserve backwards compatibility—setting `corePath` to a specific `.js` file is strongly discouraged. Doing so will either result in much slower performance (if `tesseract-core.wasm.js` is specified) or failure to run on certain devices (if `tesseract-core-simd.wasm.js` is specified).
