@jdye64 I want to switch the discussion to a different topic now as I am
starting to have second thoughts, specifically around JNA bindings and how to
properly go about it in the context of NiFi and this processor. Basically out
of the box the proc won't work until native libs are installed and I am not
sure we can really 'make' and distribute them either. Any thoughts on this?
Even tests depend on native libs and the only libs distributed with Tesseract
are windows DLLs

> This ticket is a follow-up to NIFI-1718 minus the use of the Tika library
> Expose OCR capabilities through a new processor which uses the Tesseract
> library. Use of this processor would require that Tesseract be installed on
> the NiFi host. Since the processor will have a system dependency care must be
> taken to ensure that the overall NiFi cluster continues to function properly
> in the absence of the Tesseract system dependency even though the OCR
> processor itself will be unable to perform its duties. In the event that the
> system dependencies are not detected the processor should display a
> validation warning rather than failing or preventing the NiFi instance from
> booting properly.
> Properties expose to configure Tesseract
> tesseractPath - Path to tesseract installation folder, if not on system path.
> language - Language ID (e.g. "eng"); language dictionary to be used.
> pageSegMode - Tesseract page segmentation mode, defaults to 1.
> minFileSizeToOcr - Minimum file size to submit file to OCR, defaults to 0.
> maxFileSizeToOcr - Maximum file size to submit file to OCR, defaults to
> Integer.MAX_VALUE.
> timeout - Maximum time (in seconds) to wait for the OCR process termination;
> defaults to 120.
