How To Run This Project

Since the project use python-2.7 I recommend you to run it with repl for py2.7

Run the Application

# Install Python 2.7 
$ sudo apt install python2
$ python2 --version

# Clone into YOUR local drive
$ git clone https://github.com/codetronaut/doc_tag_test.git

#move to project
$ cd doc_tag_test

# Run 
$ python2 Doc_Tag.py

Note: you can also change your directory(in which your are going to search) right now i have hard coded it to the PDFs directory.

Tools Used:

It is coded in fully python with the help of crucial modules i.e PDFminer and markdown.

Contribution:

willing to contribute let's get started. The main issues to be resolved are:

• Shipping this current version(i.e python-2.7) to python-3.x.
• Enabling back support for some modules which are deprecated(for python-2.7).
• Refactor the code and write more comments for easy understanding to those who are new.
• Shoot any other your ideas to me if any :)

Peace!
