GoogleCloudVision

Implements Google Cloud Vision Api for Coldbox Coldfusion

The Cloud Vision API gives you simple access to multiple image recognition methods using machine learning, e.g.

• face detection
• landmark detection
• explict content detection
• logo detection
• OCR

See https://cloud.google.com/vision/ as well https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/

Currently API Key only is supported

Installation

You will need a Google Account to work with this API As well you need to set up Google Cloud APIs See here: https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/quickstart

This API can be installed as standalone or as a ColdBox Module. Either approach requires a simple CommandBox command:

box install GoogleCloudVision

Then follow either the standalone or module instructions below.

Standalone

This API will be installed into a directory called GoogleCloudVision and then the API can be instantiated via new GoogleCloudVision.models.VisionClient(apiKey='YOUR_KEY_GOES_HERE') with the following constructor arguments:

ColdBox Module

This package also is a ColdBox module as well. The module can be configured by adding GoogleApiKey in your application configuration file: config/Coldbox.cfc with the following settings:

	settings = {

		// Your Google API Key
		GoogleApiKey = "",
		
		// Your settings....

	};

Then you can leverage the API CFC via the injection DSL: VisionClient@GoogleCloudVision

Usage

/**
* A normal ColdBox Event Handler
*/
component{
	property name="VisionClient" inject="VisionClient@GoogleCloudVision";
	
	function index(event,rc,prc){

		// detect landmarks
		var img = VisionClient.image('http://www0.f1online.de/preW/011559000/11559221.jpg').detect_landmarks();
		VisionClient.annotate(img);
		writeDump(img.getAnnotation());		

		abort;
	}
}
