DetectText

Source: src/AWS/Rekognition/DetectText.ts

Runtime binding for rekognition:DetectText — detect and extract lines and words of text in an image.

The binding takes no arguments and grants the function rekognition:DetectText on * (Rekognition data-plane resources such as collections, users, and jobs are routinely created at runtime, so their identifiers are unknown at deploy time). Provide the implementation with Effect.provide(AWS.Rekognition.DetectTextHttp).

// init
const detectText = yield* AWS.Rekognition.DetectText();
// runtime
const result = yield* detectText({ Image: { Bytes: imageBytes } });
const lines = (result.TextDetections ?? [])
.filter((t) => t.Type === "LINE")
.map((t) => t.DetectedText);
