This PR introduces functionality for scanning media files, extracting text content using OCR, and managing file operations more robustly. It integrates three new/updated modules:
file_handler.py: Handles file input/output operations, validation, and error management.
ocr_engine.py: Provides OCR capabilities for extracting text from images and other supported formats.
scan_media.py: Implements the core logic for scanning media files, coordinating between file handling and OCR processing.
Key Changes
Implemented file handling utilities to safely load, save, and validate media files.
Added an OCR engine wrapper that abstracts text extraction and handles failures gracefully.
Built a media scanning pipeline that:
Improved error handling and logging for debugging and maintainability.
Modularised code to make each component reusable and testable.
Accepts image and other supported media types.
Uses ocr_engine to extract text content.
Provides structured results for downstream processing.
