Open Source OCR Engine

Bindings to 'Tesseract': a powerful optical character recognition (OCR) engine that supports over 100 languages. The engine is highly configurable in order to tune the detection algorithms and obtain the best possible results.

Utility Functions for Developing Web Applications

Parses http request data in application/json, multipart/form-data, or application/x-www-form-urlencoded format. Includes example of hosting and parsing html form data in R using either 'httpuv' or 'Rhttpd'.

Extensible Style-Sheet Language Transformations

An extension for the 'xml2' package to transform XML documents by applying an 'xslt' style-sheet.

Highly Optimized Protocol Buffer Serializers

Pure C++ implementations for reading and writing several common data formats based on Google protocol-buffers. Currently supports 'rexp.proto' for serialized R objects, 'geobuf.proto' for binary geojson, and 'mvt.proto' for vector tiles. This package uses the auto-generated C++ code by protobuf-compiler, hence the entire serialization is optimized at compile time. The 'RProtoBuf' package on the other hand uses the protobuf runtime library to provide a general- purpose toolkit for reading and writing arbitrary protocol-buffer data in R.

Rendering Math to HTML, 'MathML', or R-Documentation Format

Convert latex math expressions to HTML and 'MathML' for use in markdown documents or package manual pages. The rendering is done in R using the V8 engine (i.e. server-side), which eliminates the need for embedding the 'MathJax' library into your web pages. In addition a 'math-to-rd' wrapper is provided to automatically render beautiful math in R documentation files.

JSON for Linking Data

JSON-LD < https://www.w3.org/TR/json-ld/> is a light-weight syntax for expressing linked data. It is primarily intended for web-based programming environments, interoperable web services and for storing linked data in JSON-based databases. This package provides bindings to the JavaScript library for converting, expanding and compacting JSON-LD documents.

Client for 'jq', a 'JSON' Processor

Client for 'jq', a 'JSON' processor (< https://jqlang.github.io/jq/>), written in C. 'jq' allows the following with 'JSON' data: index into, parse, do calculations, cut up and filter, change key names and values, perform conditionals and comparisons, and more.

POSIX System Utilities

Bindings to system utilities found in most Unix systems such as POSIX functions which are not part of the Standard C Library.

Base64 Encoder and Decoder

Compatibility wrapper to replace the orphaned package. New applications should use base64 encoders from 'jsonlite' or 'openssl' or 'base64enc'.

Google's Compact Language Detector 2

Bindings to Google's C++ library Compact Language Detector 2 (see < https://github.com/cld2owners/cld2#readme> for more information). Probabilistically detects over 80 languages in plain text or HTML. For mixed-language input it returns the top three detected languages and their approximate proportion of the total classified text bytes (e.g. 80% English and 20% French out of 1000 bytes). There is also a 'cld3' package on CRAN which uses a neural network model instead.
