pdftitle VS textract

Try to find possible titles of the publication. In the current version, possible titles are identified via pdftitle, and by the file name. For each possible title a google search is performed and the plain text of the first results is scanned for valid identifiers.

Scan the text inside the .pdf file, and check for any string that matches the pattern of a DOI or an arXiv ID. The text is extracted with PyPDF2 and textract.

And here are some libraries that might pique your interest although they don't strictly answer your question: - tqdm for adding a progress bar on for loops (it comes with useful information like iteration per second and estimated time needed to finish) - alive_progress adds a progress bar like tqdm, but it works even with generators and while loops which I don't think tqdm does. -timebudget, with just a decorator as soon as a function is completed it prints the time taken to execute it - send2trash for sending files to the trash bin instead of permanently deleting them - keyboard for sending keyboard inputs or check if a key is pressed - mouse same as keyboard but with mouse buttons - textract for extracting text from many types of file with a single interface. It supports documents, powerpoint presentations, csv, excels, images, gifs, audio, and many more

Huh. Must have made a mistake posting the original link. Anyway, this is what I meant: https://textract.readthedocs.io
