Google Vision Images REST API Client #

Native Dart package that integrates Google Vision features, including image labeling, face, logo, and landmark detection, optical character recognition (OCR), and detection of explicit content, into your applications.
If you are looking at integrating the Google Vision API into your Flutter SDK application then you might want to take a look at my related package google_vision_flutter, which provides a widget that wraps the functionality provided by this Dart SDK focussed package.

Recent Changes #
New for v2.0.0 #

Even though this package worked when used with the web platform the pub.dev analyzer would not show it as web platform compatible due to the use of the universal_io package which has a dependency on dart:io. This version has removed the universal_io dependency from the core package, so some related method signatures have been removed.
The deprecated methods from in v1.3.x have been removed in this version.
Logging functionality has been added to the package

final googleVision = await GoogleVision(LogLevel.all).withJwtFile('service_credentials.json');
copied to clipboard
New for v1.4.0 #

A breaking change from the previous version is that the GoogleVision class now follows the Singleton design pattern. Now the object is instantiated as follows:

// Old method from v1.3.x and earlier
// final googleVision = await GoogleVision.withJwtFile('service_credentials.json');

// New
final googleVision = await GoogleVision().withJwtFile('service_credentials.json');
copied to clipboard
New for v1.3.0 #

This version of the package supports both the image and file annotation APIs for Google Vision. The previous versions of the package supported only the image API.
A number of methods and classes have been Deprecated in this version. All the provided examples still work without any changes, so the changes in this package should not cause any issue to existing code.
The file functionality added to this release allows for the annotation of file formats that have pages or frames, specifically pdf, tiff and gif. Google Vision allows annotation of up to 5 pages/frames.

Getting Started #
pubspec.yaml #
To use this package, add the dependency to your pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
...
google_vision: ^2.0.0
copied to clipboard
Obtaining Authentication/Authorization Credentials #
Authenticating to the Cloud Vision API can be done with one of two methods:

The first method requires a JSON file with the JWT token information, which you can obtain by creating a service account in the API console.
The second method requires an API key to be created.

Both of the authorization/authentication methods listed above assume that you already have a Google account, you have created a Google Cloud project and you have enabled the Cloud Vision API in the Google API library.
Usage of the Cloud Vision API #
final googleVision = await GoogleVision().withApiKey(
Platform.environment['GOOGLE_VISION_API_KEY'] ?? '[YOUR API KEY]',
// additionalHeaders: {'com.xxx.xxx': 'X-Ios-Bundle-Identifier'},
);

print('checking...');

final faceAnnotationResponses = await googleVision.image.faceDetection(
JsonImage.fromGsUri(
'gs://gvision-demo/young-man-smiling-and-thumbs-up.jpg'));

for (var faceAnnotation in faceAnnotationResponses) {
print('Face - ${faceAnnotation.detectionConfidence}');

print('Joy - ${faceAnnotation.enumJoyLikelihood}');
}

// Output:
// Face - 0.9609375
// Joy - Likelihood.UNLIKELY

print('done.');

New Helper Methods #

Method Signature
Description

Future<AnnotateImageResponse> detection(  JsonImage jsonImage,  AnnotationType annotationType,  {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Lower level method for a single detection type as specified by annotationType

Future<CropHintsAnnotation?> cropHints(  JsonImage jsonImage,  {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Crop Hints suggests vertices for a crop region on an image.

Future<FullTextAnnotation?> documentTextDetection(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Extracts text from an image (or file); the response is optimized for dense text and documents. The break information. A specific use of documentTextDetection is to detect handwriting in an image.

Future<List<FaceAnnotation>> faceDetection(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Face Detection detects multiple faces within an image along with the associated key facial attributes such as emotional state or wearing headwear.

Future<ImagePropertiesAnnotation?> imageProperties(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
The Image Properties feature detects general attributes of the image, such as dominant color.

Future<List<EntityAnnotation>> labelDetection(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Labels can identify general objects, locations, activities, animal species, products, and more. Labels are returned in English only.

Future<List<EntityAnnotation>> landmarkDetection(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Landmark Detection detects popular natural and human-made structures within an image.

Future<List<EntityAnnotation>> logoDetection(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Logo Detection detects popular product logos within an image.

Future<List<LocalizedObjectAnnotation>> objectLocalization(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
The Vision API can detect and extract multiple objects in an image with Object Localization. Object localization identifies multiple objects in an image and provides a LocalizedObjectAnnotation for each object in the image. Each LocalizedObjectAnnotation identifies information about the object, the position of the object, and rectangular bounds for the region of the image that contains the object. Object localization identifies both significant and less-prominent objects in an image.

Future<SafeSearchAnnotation?> safeSearchDetection(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
SafeSearch Detection detects explicit content such as adult content or violent content within an image. This feature uses five categories (adult, spoof, medical, violence, and racy) and returns the likelihood that each is present in a given image. See the SafeSearchAnnotation page for details on these fields.

Future<List<EntityAnnotation>> textDetection(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Detects and extracts text from any image. For example, a photograph might contain a street sign or traffic sign. The JSON includes the entire extracted string, as well as individual words, and their bounding boxes.

Future<WebDetection?> webDetection(  JsonImage jsonImage,   {ImageContext? imageContext,  int maxResults = 10,})
Web Detection detects Web references to an image.

Usage with Flutter #
For a quick intro into the use of Google Vision in a Flutter, take a look at the google_vision_flutter package and the example folder of the project's GitHub repository.
If Flutter specific Google Vision Widget doesn't meet your requirements, then to work with Flutter it's usually necessary to convert an object that is presented as an Asset or a Stream into a File for use by this google_vision package. This StackOverflow post gives an idea on how this can be accomplished. A similar process can be used for any Stream of data that represents an image supported by google_vision. Essentially, the Google Vision REST API needs to be able to convert the image data into its Base64 representation before submitting it to the Google server and having the bytedata available in the code makes this easier.
Vision cli (google_vision at the command prompt) #
This package included a cli utility that can be used to return data for any API call currently supported by the package. If you want to get started quickly with the cli utility run these commands in a terminal session:
Install using dart pub:
dart pub global activate google_vision
copied to clipboard
Run the following command to see help:
vision --help
copied to clipboard
Result,
A command line interface for making API requests to the Google Vision.

Usage: vision <command> [arguments]

Global options:
-h, --help Print this usage information.
--credential-file=<credentials file path> (defaults to "/Users/chris/.vision/credentials.json")

Available commands:
crop_hints Set of crop hints that are used to generate new crops when serving images.
detect Run image detection and annotation for an images.
highlight Draw a box to highlight any objects detected.
safe_search SafeSearch Detection detects explicit content such as adult content or violent content within an image.
score For OBJECT_LOCALIZATION, get the score(s) for the object specified with "look-for".
