PaddleOCR Quick Start Guide

This guide provides essential steps for deploying and managing PaddleOCR services, including supervisor process control, environment paths, logging configuration, and a Python test script for local verification.

1. Service Management

Check service status

supervisorctl status

Restart the service

supervisorctl reload

2. Environment Configuration

Supervisor configuration file

cat /etc/supervisor/conf.d/web.conf

Web startup file

/root/web.py

Log file paths

Log Type File Path
Error Log /var/log/supervisor/web_error.log
Standard Output Log /var/log/supervisor/web_stdout.log

3. Local Testing Example

You can verify the PaddleOCR installation with a simple Python test:

from paddleocr import PaddleOCR, draw_ocr

# Initialize the OCR engine
ocr = PaddleOCR(use_angle_cls=True, lang='ch')

# Run OCR on an image
result = ocr.ocr('test.jpg')

# Print recognition results
print(result)
