Quick Start

Installation

# Core only
pip install strutex

# With CLI commands
pip install strutex[cli]

# With OCR support
pip install strutex[ocr]

# Everything
pip install strutex[all]

Basic Usage

from strutex import DocumentProcessor, Object, String, Number, Array

# Define your output schema
invoice_schema = Object(
    description="Invoice data",
    properties={
        "invoice_number": String(description="The invoice ID"),
        "total": Number(),
        "items": Array(
            items=Object(
                properties={
                    "description": String(),
                    "amount": Number(),
                }
            )
        )
    }
)

# Process a document
processor = DocumentProcessor(provider="gemini")
result = processor.process(
    file_path="invoice.pdf",
    prompt="Extract the invoice details.",
    schema=invoice_schema
)

print(result["invoice_number"])  # "INV-2024-001"
print(result["total"])           # 1250.00

Plugin System

Everything is pluggable. Just inherit from a base class:

from strutex.plugins import Provider

class MyProvider(Provider):
    """Auto-registered as 'myprovider'"""
    capabilities = ["vision"]

    def process(self, file_path, prompt, schema, mime_type, **kwargs):
        # Your LLM logic
        ...

# Customize with class arguments
class FastProvider(Provider, name="fast"):
    """Registered as 'fast' with high priority"""
    priority = 90  # Class attribute
    cost = 0.5

    def process(self, ...): ...

Use entry points in pyproject.toml:

[project.entry-points."strutex.providers"]
my_provider = "my_package:MyProvider"
