As a popular PHP open source framework, Laravel provides a simple and efficient development method and is loved by the majority of developers. This article will introduce how to integrate Alibaba Cloud OCR in the Laravel project and give corresponding code examples.

1. Preparation:

Register an Alibaba Cloud account and activate the OCR service.
Create a new Laravel project or select an existing project.

2. Install the Alibaba Cloud OCR SDK package
Add the dependency of the Alibaba Cloud OCR SDK to the composer.json file in the root directory of the Laravel project:

"require": {
    "aliyuncs/oss-sdk-php": "2.3.0"
}

Copy after login

Then executecomposer update command to install dependency packages.

3. Configure Alibaba Cloud OCR SDK
Create a new ocr.php file in the config directory of the Laravel project root directory, and add the following code:

<?php

return [
    'access_key' => env('ALIYUN_ACCESS_KEY', ''),
    'access_secret' => env('ALIYUN_ACCESS_SECRET', ''),
];

Copy after login

Then add in the .env file Alibaba Cloud's Access Key and Access Secret:

ALIYUN_ACCESS_KEY=your_access_key
ALIYUN_ACCESS_SECRET=your_access_secret

Copy after login

4. Create OCR Controller
Execute the following command to create an OCR Controller:

php artisan make:controller OCRController

Copy after login

Then add the following code to the created OCRController:

<?php

namespace AppHttpControllers;

use IlluminateHttpRequest;
use AlibabaCloudClientAlibabaCloud;
use AlibabaCloudClientExceptionClientException;
use AlibabaCloudClientExceptionServerException;

class OCRController extends Controller
{
    public function ocr(Request $request)
    {
        $imagePath = $request->file('image')->path();
        $fileContent = file_get_contents($imagePath);
        
        AlibabaCloud::accessKeyClient(config('ocr.access_key'), config('ocr.access_secret'))
            ->regionId('cn-hangzhou')
            ->asDefaultClient();
        
        try {
            $result = AlibabaCloud::ocr()
                ->v20191230()
                ->recognizeCharacter()
                ->withImageUrl('')
                ->format('json')
                ->request();
            return response()->json($result->toArray());
        } catch (ServerException $e) {
            // 服务器处理异常
            throw new Exception($e->getErrorMessage());
        } catch (ClientException $e) {
            // SDK调用异常
            throw new Exception($e->getErrorMessage());
        }
    }
}

Copy after login

5. Configure routing
Add the following route in the routes/web.php file:

Route::post('/ocr', 'OCRController@ocr');

Copy after login

Create a simple view for uploading images, for example ：

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Upload Image</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form method="POST" action="/ocr" enctype="multipart/form-data">
        @csrf
        <input type="file" name="image">
        <button type="submit">Upload</button>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Copy after login
