    OCRmyPDF

    OCRmyPDF

    OCRmyPDF adds an OCR text layer to scanned PDF files

    OCRmyPDF adds an optical character recognition (OCR) text layer to scanned PDF files, allowing them to be searched. PDF is the best format for storing and exchanging scanned documents. Unfortunately, PDFs can be difficult to modify. OCRmyPDF makes it easy to apply image processing and OCR (recognized, searchable text) to existing PDFs.

    The lxml XML toolkit for Python

    A Python library for efficient XML and HTML processing, known for speed and compatibility. The lxml XML toolkit is a Pythonic binding for the C libraries libxml2 and libxslt. It is unique in that it combines the speed and XML feature completeness of these libraries with the simplicity of a native Python API, mostly compatible but superior to the well-known ElementTree API. The latest release works with all CPython versions from 3.6 to 3.12. See the introduction for more information about the background and goals of the lxml project.

    Markdown package LaTeX

    Markdown package LaTeX

    Package for converting and rendering markdown documents in TeX

    The Markdown package converts CommonMark markup to TeX commands. The functionality is provided both as a Lua module, and as plain TeX, LaTeX, and ConTeXt macro packages that can be used to directly typeset TeX documents containing markdown markup. Unlike other convertors, the Markdown package does not require any external programs and makes it easy to redefine how each and every markdown element is rendered. Creative abuse of the markdown syntax is encouraged.

    OSCAL

    OSCAL

    Open Security Controls Assessment Language (OSCAL)

    NIST is developing the Open Security Controls Assessment Language (OSCAL), a set of hierarchical, XML-, JSON-, and YAML-based formats that provide a standardized representation of information pertaining to the publication, implementation, and assessment of security controls. OSCAL is being developed through a collaborative approach with the public. Public contributions to this project are welcome. With this effort, we are stressing the agile development of a set of minimal formats that are generic enough to capture the breadth of data in scope (controls specifications), while also capable of ad-hoc tuning and extension to support peculiarities of both (industry or sector) standards and new control types. The OSCAL website provides an overview of the OSCAL project, including an XML and JSON schema reference, examples, and other resources.

    TOML

    TOML

    Tom Preston-Werner's obvious, minimal language

    Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language. By Tom Preston-Werner, Pradyun Gedam, et al. TOML aims to be a minimal configuration file format that's easy to read due to obvious semantics. TOML is designed to map unambiguously to a hash table. TOML should be easy to parse into data structures in a wide variety of languages. TOML shares traits with other file formats used for application configuration and data serialization, such as YAML and JSON. TOML and JSON both are simple and use ubiquitous data types, making them easy to code for or parse with machines. TOML and YAML both emphasize human readability features, like comments that make it easier to understand the purpose of a given line. TOML differs in combining these, allowing comments (unlike JSON) but preserving simplicity (unlike YAML). Because TOML is explicitly intended as a configuration file format, parsing it is easy, but it is not intended for serializing arbitrary data structures.

    Build GUI for your Python program with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS

    pywebview is a lightweight cross-platform wrapper around a webview component that allows to display HTML content in its own native GUI window. It gives you power of web technologies in your desktop application, hiding the fact that GUI is browser based. You can use pywebview either with a lightweight web framework like Flask or Bottle or on its own with a two way bridge between Python and DOM. pywebview uses native GUI for creating a web component window: WinForms on Windows, Cocoa on macOS and QT or GTK on Linux. If you choose to freeze your application, pywebview does not bundle a heavy GUI toolkit or web renderer with it keeping the executable size small. pywebview is compatible with Python 3.

    Great Expectations

    Great Expectations

    Always know what to expect from your data

    Great Expectations helps data teams eliminate pipeline debt, through data testing, documentation, and profiling. Software developers have long known that testing and documentation are essential for managing complex codebases. Great Expectations brings the same confidence, integrity, and acceleration to data science and data engineering teams. Expectations are assertions for data. They are the workhorse abstraction in Great Expectations, covering all kinds of common data issues. Expectations are a great start, but it takes more to get to production-ready data validation. Where are Expectations stored? How do they get updated? How do you securely connect to production data systems? How do you notify team members and triage when data validation fails? Great Expectations supports all of these use cases out of the box. Instead of building these components for yourself over weeks or months, you will be able to add production-ready validation to your pipeline in a day.

    Video-based AI memory library. Store millions of text chunks in MP4

    Memvid encodes text chunks as QR codes within MP4 frames to build a portable “video memory” for AI systems. This innovative approach uses standard video containers and offers millisecond-level semantic search across large corpora with dramatically less storage than vector DBs. It's self-contained—no DB needed—and supports features like PDF indexing, chat integration, and cloud dashboards.

    Rdbtools

    Rdbtools

    Parse Redis dump.rdb files, Analyze Memory, and Export Data to JSON

    Rdbtools is a parser for Redis' dump.rdb files. The parser generates events similar to an XML sax parser and is very efficient memory-wise. Rdbtools is written in Python, though there are similar projects in other languages. Every run of RDB Tool requires to specify a command to indicate what should be done with the parsed RDB data. Valid commands are JSON, diff, justkeys, justkeyvals and protocol. The JSON command output is UTF-8 encoded JSON. By default, the callback try to parse RDB data using UTF-8 and escape non 'ASCII printable' characters with the \U notation, or non-UTF-8 parsable bytes with \x. Attempting to decode RDB data can lead to binary data corruption, this can be avoided by using the --escape raw option. Another option is to use -e base64 for Base64 encoding of binary data.
