|
|
|
|
## ⚙️ Configuration
|
|
|
|
### Phase 1: Performance (Automatic)
|
|
|
|
No configuration needed. Caching and indexes work automatically.
|
|
|
|
**To disable caching** (not recommended):
|
|
```python
|
|
# In settings.py
|
|
CACHES = {
|
|
'default': {
|
|
'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.dummy.DummyCache',
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Phase 2: Security
|
|
|
|
**Rate Limiting** (configured in `src/paperless/middleware.py`):
|
|
```python
|
|
rate_limits = {
|
|
"/api/documents/": (100, 60), # 100 requests per minute
|
|
"/api/search/": (30, 60),
|
|
"/api/upload/": (10, 60),
|
|
"/api/bulk_edit/": (20, 60),
|
|
"default": (200, 60),
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**To disable rate limiting** (for testing):
|
|
```python
|
|
# In settings.py
|
|
# Comment out the middleware
|
|
MIDDLEWARE = [
|
|
# ...
|
|
# "paperless.middleware.RateLimitMiddleware", # Disabled
|
|
# ...
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Security Headers** (automatic):
|
|
- HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, etc.
|
|
|
|
**File Validation** (automatic):
|
|
- Max file size: 500MB
|
|
- Allowed types: PDF, Office docs, images
|
|
- Blocks: .exe, .dll, .bat, etc.
|
|
|
|
### Phase 3: AI/ML
|
|
|
|
**Default Models** (download automatically on first use):
|
|
- Classifier: `distilbert-base-uncased` (~132MB)
|
|
- NER: `dbmdz/bert-large-cased-finetuned-conll03-english` (~1.3GB)
|
|
- Semantic Search: `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` (~80MB)
|
|
|
|
**GPU Support** (automatic if available):
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Check GPU availability
|
|
python -c "import torch; print(f'CUDA: {torch.cuda.is_available()}')"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Pre-download models** (optional but recommended):
|
|
```python
|
|
from documents.ml import TransformerDocumentClassifier, DocumentNER, SemanticSearch
|
|
|
|
# Download models
|
|
classifier = TransformerDocumentClassifier()
|
|
ner = DocumentNER()
|
|
search = SemanticSearch()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Phase 4: Advanced OCR
|
|
|
|
**Tesseract** must be installed system-wide (see Installation).
|
|
|
|
**Models** download automatically on first use.

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Phase 3: AI/ML
|
|
|
|
#### Document Classification
|
|
```python
|
|
from documents.ml import TransformerDocumentClassifier
|
|
|
|
classifier = TransformerDocumentClassifier()
|
|
|
|
# Train on your documents
|
|
documents = ["This is an invoice...", "Contract between..."]
|
|
labels = [0, 1] # 0=invoice, 1=contract
|
|
classifier.train(documents, labels, epochs=3)
|
|
|
|
# Predict
|
|
text = "Invoice #12345 from Acme Corp"
|
|
predicted_class, confidence = classifier.predict(text)
|
|
print(f"Class: {predicted_class}, Confidence: {confidence:.2%}")
|
|
|
|
# Batch predict
|
|
predictions = classifier.predict_batch([text1, text2, text3])
|
|
|
|
# Save model
|
|
classifier.save_model("/path/to/model")
|
|
|
|
# Load model
|
|
classifier = TransformerDocumentClassifier.load_model("/path/to/model")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Named Entity Recognition
|
|
```python
|
|
from documents.ml import DocumentNER
|
|
|
|
ner = DocumentNER()
|
|
|
|
# Extract all entities
|
|
text = "Invoice from Acme Corp, dated 01/15/2024, total $1,234.56"
|
|
entities = ner.extract_entities(text)
|
|
|
|
print(entities['organizations']) # ['Acme Corp']
|
|
print(entities['dates']) # ['01/15/2024']
|
|
print(entities['amounts']) # ['$1,234.56']
|
|
|
|
# Extract invoice-specific data
|
|
invoice_data = ner.extract_invoice_data(text)
|
|
print(invoice_data['vendor']) # 'Acme Corp'
|
|
print(invoice_data['total']) # '$1,234.56'
|
|
print(invoice_data['date']) # '01/15/2024'
|
|
|
|
# Get suggestions for document
|
|
suggestions = ner.suggest_correspondent(text) # 'Acme Corp'
|
|
tags = ner.suggest_tags(text) # ['invoice', 'payment']
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Semantic Search
|
|
```python
|
|
from documents.ml import SemanticSearch
|
|
|
|
search = SemanticSearch()
|
|
|
|
# Index documents
|
|
documents = [
|
|
{"id": 1, "text": "Medical expenses receipt"},
|
|
{"id": 2, "text": "Employment contract"},
|
|
{"id": 3, "text": "Hospital invoice"},
|
|
]
|
|
search.index_documents(documents)
|
|
|
|
# Search by meaning
|
|
results = search.search("healthcare costs", top_k=5)
|
|
for doc_id, score in results:
|
|
print(f"Document {doc_id}: {score:.2%} match")
|
|
|
|
# Find similar documents
|
|
similar = search.find_similar_documents(doc_id=1, top_k=5)
|
|
|
|
# Save index
|
|
search.save_index("/path/to/index")
|
|
|
|
# Load index
|
|
search = SemanticSearch.load_index("/path/to/index")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Phase 4: Advanced OCR
|
|
|
|
#### Table Extraction
|
|
```python
|
|
from documents.ocr import TableExtractor
|
|
|
|
extractor = TableExtractor()
|
|
|
|
# Extract tables from image
|
|
tables = extractor.extract_tables_from_image("invoice.png")
|
|
|
|
for i, table in enumerate(tables):
|
|
print(f"Table {i+1}:")
|
|
print(f" Confidence: {table['detection_score']:.2%}")
|
|
print(f" Data:\n{table['data']}") # pandas DataFrame
|
|
|
|
# Extract from PDF
|
|
tables = extractor.extract_tables_from_pdf("document.pdf")
|
|
|
|
# Export to Excel
|
|
extractor.save_tables_to_excel(tables, "output.xlsx")
|
|
|
|
# Export to CSV
|
|
extractor.save_tables_to_csv(tables[0]['data'], "table1.csv")
|
|
|
|
# Batch processing
|
|
image_files = ["doc1.png", "doc2.png", "doc3.png"]
|
|
all_tables = extractor.batch_process(image_files)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Handwriting Recognition
|
|
```python
|
|
from documents.ocr import HandwritingRecognizer
|
|
|
|
recognizer = HandwritingRecognizer()
|
|
|
|
# Recognize lines
|
|
lines = recognizer.recognize_lines("handwritten.jpg")
|
|
|
|
for line in lines:
|
|
print(f"{line['text']} (confidence: {line['confidence']:.2%})")
|
|
|
|
# Recognize form fields (with known positions)
|
|
fields = [
|
|
{'name': 'Name', 'bbox': [100, 50, 400, 80]},
|
|
{'name': 'Date', 'bbox': [100, 100, 300, 130]},
|
|
{'name': 'Signature', 'bbox': [100, 200, 400, 250]},
|
|
]
|
|
field_values = recognizer.recognize_form_fields("form.jpg", fields)
|
|
print(field_values) # {'Name': 'John Doe', 'Date': '01/15/2024', ...}
|
|
|
|
# Batch processing

|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Form Detection
|
|
```python
|
|
from documents.ocr import FormFieldDetector
|
|
|
|
detector = FormFieldDetector()
|
|
|
|
# Detect all fields automatically
|
|
fields = detector.detect_form_fields("form.jpg")
|
|
|
|
for field in fields:
|
|
print(f"{field['label']}: {field['value']} ({field['type']})")
|
|
|
|
# Extract as dictionary
|
|
data = detector.extract_form_data("form.jpg", output_format='dict')
|
|
print(data) # {'Name': 'John Doe', 'Agree': True, ...}
|
|
|
|
# Extract as JSON
|
|
json_data = detector.extract_form_data("form.jpg", output_format='json')
|
|
|
|
# Extract as DataFrame
|
|
df = detector.extract_form_data("form.jpg", output_format='dataframe')
|
|
|
|
# Detect checkboxes only
|
|
checkboxes = detector.detect_checkboxes("form.jpg")
|
|
for cb in checkboxes:
|
|
print(f"{cb['label']}: {'☑' if cb['checked'] else '☐'}")
|
|
```

|
|
|
|
## 🐛 Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Phase 1: Performance
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Queries still slow
|
|
- **Solution:** Ensure migration ran: `python src/manage.py showmigrations documents`
|
|
- Check indexes exist in database
|
|
- Verify Redis is running for cache
|
|
|
|
### Phase 2: Security
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Rate limiting not working
|
|
- **Solution:** Ensure Redis is configured and running
|
|
- Check middleware is in MIDDLEWARE list in settings.py
|
|
- Verify cache backend is Redis, not dummy
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Files being rejected
|
|
- **Solution:** Check file type is in ALLOWED_MIME_TYPES
|
|
- Review logs for specific validation error
|
|
- Adjust MAX_FILE_SIZE if needed (src/paperless/security.py)
|
|
|
|
### Phase 3: AI/ML
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Import errors
|
|
- **Solution:** Install dependencies: `pip install transformers torch sentence-transformers`
|
|
- Verify installation: `pip list | grep -E "transformers|torch|sentence"`
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Model download fails
|
|
- **Solution:** Check internet connection
|
|
- Try pre-downloading: `huggingface-cli download model_name`
|
|
- Set HF_HOME environment variable for custom cache location
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Out of memory
|
|
- **Solution:** Use smaller models (distilbert instead of bert-large)
|
|
- Reduce batch size
|
|
- Use CPU instead of GPU for small tasks
|
|
|
|
### Phase 4: Advanced OCR
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Tesseract not found
|
|
- **Solution:** Install system package: `sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr`
|
|
- Verify: `tesseract --version`
|
|
- Add to PATH on Windows
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Import errors
|
|
- **Solution:** Install dependencies: `pip install opencv-python pytesseract pillow`
|
|
- Verify: `pip list | grep -E "opencv|pytesseract|pillow"`
|
|
|
|
**Issue:** Poor OCR quality
|
|
- **Solution:** Improve image quality (300+ DPI)
|
|
- Use grayscale conversion
|
|
- Apply preprocessing (threshold, noise removal)
|
|
- Ensure good lighting and contrast
|
