Docker
A Dockerfile
is available with all dependencies needed to run the program.
To build the image, run
make docker-build
To run it on the sample files, try
make docker-run

command. To use with your own images, run the following:
docker run -v <path_to_input_images>:/usr/src/app/data/img mre0/receipt_parser
