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

  4. Add the following statements to your Android activity:

    Code Block
    languagejava
    ...
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);
