UpstageDocumentParseReader

UpstageDocumentParseReader

pip install llama-index-readers-upstage

This reader loads document files and detects elements such as text, tables, and figures using the Upstage Layout Analysis API. Users wishing to utilize this reader must obtain an API key from the Upstage console.

Construction

The UpstageDocumentParseReader is equipped with the following three optional parameters during instantiation:

• api_key: This parameter is designed to accept a string that serves as an API access token. If the API key has already been registered in the environment variable UPSTAGE_API_KEY, there is no necessity to input it again during the reader's configuration.

• ocr: A string value indicating whether to perform OCR inference on the document before layout detection. The possible value is one of auto and force. The default is auto which means that OCR is performed for image input only. When this option is set to auto for PDF or non-image documents, the engine directly extracts text and coordinates from the document without converting it to images. Otherwise, the engine converts the input file to images and performs OCR inference before layout detection.

• output_format: A list of string value indicating in which each layout element output is formatted. Possible values are text, html, and markdown. The default value is "html"

• coordinates: A boolean value indicating whether to return coordinates of bounding boxes of each layout element. The default is true

• base64_encoding: A list of string value indicating which layout category should be provided as base64 encoded string. Categories are include paragraph, table, figure, header, footer, caption, equation, heading1, list, index, footnote, chart. This feature is useful when user wants to crop the layout element from the original document image and store and use it for their own purpose. For example, users can extract image base64 encoding of all tables of the input document with ["table"]. All layout categories can be specified.

load_data

The load_data function, encompassed within the UpstageDocumentParseReader, extends from the BaseReader class. The lazy_load_data function mirrors the functionalities of the load_data function but with an enhanced focus on efficiency and lazy loading, making it particularly suitable for handling large files. Utilizing this function effectively necessitates a thorough understanding of its parameters and their respective expected inputs to harness its full potential:

• file_path (required): This critical parameter accepts either a single string or pathlib.Path object, or a list comprising multiple of these elements, representing the path(s) to the file(s) intended for loading. Proper accessibility and precise specification of these path(s) are essential to ensure smooth operation.

Usage

Here's an example usage of the UpstageDocumentParseReader.

import os

os.environ["UPSTAGE_API_KEY"] = "YOUR_API_KEY"


from llama_index.readers.upstage import UpstageDocumentParseReader

file_path = "/PATH/TO/YOUR/FILE.pdf"

reader = UpstageDocumentParseReader()

# For improved memory efficiency, consider using the lazy_load_data method to load documents page by page.
docs = reader.load_data(file_path=file_path)

for doc in docs[:3]:
    print(doc)

UpstageLayoutAnalysisReader (deprecated)

pip install llama-index-readers-upstage

This reader loads document files and detects elements such as text, tables, and figures using the Upstage Layout Analysis API. Users wishing to utilize this reader must obtain an API key from the Upstage console.

Construction

The UpstageLayoutAnalysisReader is equipped with the following three optional parameters during instantiation:

• api_key: This parameter is designed to accept a string that serves as an API access token. If the API key has already been registered in the environment variable UPSTAGE_API_KEY, there is no necessity to input it again during the reader's configuration.

• use_ocr: By default, the Upstage Layout Analysis API accesses and utilizes text information directly from digitally-born PDF documents when use_ocr = False. If use_ocr is set to True, Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is activated, allowing the OCR model to detect and extract text from any type of document file, including those in image formats. However, it is important to note that utilizing the OCR feature may lead to increased processing times due to the inference demands of the OCR model.

• exclude: This parameter allows users to specifically filter out and exclude certain categories of document elements. The exclude parameter requires a list of categories to be provided. The default setting is ["header", "footer"], implying that the elements labeled as "header" and "footer" will not be included in the output. Available categories for exclusion include:

  • "paragraph"
  • "caption"
  • "table"
  • "figure"
  • "equation"
  • "footer"
  • "header"

Each of these parameters enhances the flexibility and customization of the document processing capabilities offered by the UpstageLayoutAnalysisReader.

load_data

The load_data function, encompassed within the UpstageLayoutAnalysisReader, extends from the BaseReader class. The lazy_load_data function mirrors the functionalities of the load_data function but with an enhanced focus on efficiency and lazy loading, making it particularly suitable for handling large files. Utilizing this function effectively necessitates a thorough understanding of its parameters and their respective expected inputs to harness its full potential:

• file_path (required): This critical parameter accepts either a single string or pathlib.Path object, or a list comprising multiple of these elements, representing the path(s) to the file(s) intended for loading. Proper accessibility and precise specification of these path(s) are essential to ensure smooth operation.

• output_type (optional): This parameter tailors the format of the output data. By default, it is configured to "html," but it can be adjusted to "text". Moreover, for more refined control, it can be specified through a dictionary format, such as {"category": "output_type", ...}. The allowed values for output_type within this setup are "text" or "html". For categories not specified in the dictionary format of output_type and not listed in the exclude during construction, the default output type will be html.

• split (optional): This parameter manages the segmentation of the data during the loading process. The selection made here should align with the user's data handling strategy to ensure effective data management. The available splitting modes are:

  • "none": Applies no splitting to the data (default setting).
  • "page": Segments the document page by page.
  • "element": Splits the document by individual elements (paragraphs, tables, etc.).

Understanding and setting these parameters correctly allow users to optimize data loading and processing according to their specific requirements and workflows.

Usage

Here's an example usage of the UpstageLayoutAnalysisReader.

import os

os.environ["UPSTAGE_API_KEY"] = "YOUR_API_KEY"


from llama_index.readers.upstage import UpstageLayoutAnalysisReader

file_path = "/PATH/TO/YOUR/FILE.pdf"

reader = UpstageLayoutAnalysisReader(
    use_ocr=False, exclude=["header", "footer"]
)

# For improved memory efficiency, consider using the lazy_load_data method to load documents page by page.
docs = reader.load_data(
    file_path=file_path, split="element", output_type={"paragraph": "text"}
)

for doc in docs[:3]:
    print(doc)
