How to Run Examples Leave feedback
On this page
The complete project GroupDocs.Parser Examples with code examples and sample files is hosted on GitHub.
To get started make sure that Python is installed (version 3.5 or higher).
Clone repository with examples:
git clone https://github.com/groupdocs-parser/GroupDocs.Parser-for-Python-via-.NET.gitNavigate to the project folder:
cd ./GroupDocs.Parser-for-Python-via-.NETInstall the necessary packages:
pip install groupdocs-parser-netRun the examples:
python run_examples.py
To check what examples are available, open the run_examples.py file in your favorite text editor. Uncomment examples you want to run and type python run_examples.py to start them.
If you prefer to create a project from scratch, follow these steps:
Install GroupDocs.Parser for Python via .NET using pip:
pip install groupdocs-parser-net
Create a new Python file (e.g., example.py) and add the following code:
from groupdocs.parser import Parser
def extract_text_from_document():
# Create an instance of Parser class
with Parser("./sample.docx") as parser:
# Extract text from the document
text_reader = parser.get_text()
if text_reader is not None:
# Print the extracted text
extracted_text = text_reader
print(extracted_text)
else:
print("Text extraction isn't supported for this format")
if __name__ == "__main__":
extract_text_from_document()
The following sample file is used in this example: sample.docx
Execute your Python script:
python example.py
The extracted text will appear in the console.
from groupdocs.parser import Parser
def extract_text_from_pdf():
with Parser("./sample.pdf") as parser:
text_reader = parser.get_text()
if text_reader:
print(text_reader)
if __name__ == "__main__":
extract_text_from_pdf()
The following sample file is used in this example: sample.pdf
from groupdocs.parser import Parser
def extract_metadata_example():
with Parser("./sample.docx") as parser:
metadata = parser.get_metadata()
if metadata:
for item in metadata:
print(f"{item.name}: {item.value}")
if __name__ == "__main__":
extract_metadata_example()
The following sample file is used in this example: sample.docx
from groupdocs.parser import Parser
def extract_images_example():
with Parser("./sample.pdf") as parser:
images = parser.get_images()
if images:
for i, image in enumerate(images):
with open(f"image_{i}.png", "wb") as file:
image_stream = image.get_image_stream()
file.write(image_stream.read())
if __name__ == "__main__":
extract_images_example()
The following sample file is used in this example: sample.pdf
