There are basically 2 ways to implement configure custom .any- and -ale-files. The first one is via code (using methods in an Android activity), the second one is declarative by extending the View Configuration.

This knowledge base article gives step-by-step instructions showing the implementation configuration in an Android activity.Please follow these steps:

Info

The example shown below describes an OCR configuration. Custom .any- and .ale files can be implemented for other use cases as well. In this case please use the corresponding Anyline Config classes.

  1. Copy the the .ale file to the folder app/src/main/assets of your app.

  2. Check if there is a folder app/src/main/trained_models. If it does not exist, create this folder.

  3. Copy the .any file to the newly created folder app/src/main/trained_models.

  4. Add the following statements to your Android activity:

    Code Block
    ...
private ScanView scanView;
private OcrScanViewPlugin scanViewPlugin;
io.anyline.plugin.ocr.AnylineOcrConfig anylineOcrConfig;
...

scanView = findViewById(R.id.scan_view);
...
// this is one way to set the view configuration file:
try {
    scanView.init("your_view_configuration_file.json");
} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}    
...
anylineOcrConfig = new AnylineOcrConfig();
...
anylineOcrConfig.setCustomCmdFile("your_custom_file.ale");
anylineOcrConfig.setModel("your_custom_file.any");
// add further config settings
...
scanViewPlugin = new OcrScanViewPlugin(getApplicationContext(), 
        anylineOcrConfig, scanView.getScanViewPluginConfig(), "OCR");
...  
scanView.setScanViewPlugin(scanViewPlugin);
