sceptre-cli 0.7.2

Command-line interface for sceptre — CRAFT + gen2 CRNN OCR over ONNX.
sceptre-cli-0.7.2 is not a library.

sceptre-cli

EasyOCR's accuracy. Rust's speed and footprint.

The command-line interface for sceptre — a from-scratch Rust reimplementation of EasyOCR's pipeline (CRAFT detection then gen2 CRNN recognition over ONNX). One self-contained binary, no Python runtime, matching EasyOCR across six scripts (English, Latin, Chinese-simplified, Japanese, Korean, Cyrillic).

Models download from Hugging Face on first use, cache locally, and are sha256-verified on download — every run after that reads the cache with no network.

Install

cargo install sceptre-cli
