#### extractFileSync()
Synchronous wrapper for `extract_file`.
This is a convenience function that blocks the current thread until extraction completes.
For async code, use `extract_file` directly.
Uses the global Tokio runtime for 100x+ performance improvement over creating
a new runtime per call. Always uses the global runtime to avoid nested runtime issues.
This function is only available with the `tokio-runtime` feature. For WASM targets,
use a truly synchronous extraction approach instead.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn extract_file_sync(path: [:0]const u8, mime_type: ?[:0]const u8, config: ExtractionConfig) Error!ExtractionResult
```
**Parameters:**

This function processes multiple files in parallel, automatically managing
concurrency to prevent resource exhaustion. The concurrency limit can be
configured via `ExtractionConfig.max_concurrent_extractions` or defaults
to `(num_cpus * 1.5).ceil()`.
Each file can optionally specify a `FileExtractionConfig` that overrides specific
fields from the batch-level `config`. Pass `null` for a file to use the batch defaults.
Batch-level settings like `max_concurrent_extractions` and `use_cache` are always
taken from the batch-level `config`.

| `prependHeadingContext` | `bool` | `false` | When `true` and `chunker_type` is `Markdown`, prepend the heading hierarchy path (e.g. `"# Title > ## Section\n\n"`) to each chunk's content string. This is useful for RAG pipelines where each chunk needs self-contained context about its position in the document structure. Default: `false` |
| `topicThreshold` | `f32?` | `null` | Optional cosine similarity threshold for semantic topic boundary detection. Only used when `chunker_type` is `Semantic` and an `EmbeddingConfig` is provided. You almost never need to set this. When omitted, defaults to `0.75` which works well for most documents. Lower values detect more topic boundaries (more, smaller chunks); higher values detect fewer. Range: `0.0..=1.0`. |

#### ContentFilterConfig
Cross-extractor content filtering configuration.
Controls whether "furniture" content (headers, footers, page numbers,
watermarks, repeating text) is included in or stripped from extraction
results. Applies across all extractors (PDF, DOCX, RTF, ODT, HTML, etc.)
with format-specific implementation.
When `null` on `ExtractionConfig`, each extractor uses its current
default behavior unchanged.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `includeHeaders` | `bool` | `false` | Include running headers in extraction output. - PDF: Disables top-margin furniture stripping and prevents the layout model from treating `PageHeader`-classified regions as furniture. - DOCX: Includes document headers in text output. - RTF/ODT: Headers already included; this is a no-op when true. - HTML/EPUB: Keeps `<header>` element content. Default: `false` (headers are stripped or excluded). |
| `includeFooters` | `bool` | `false` | Include running footers in extraction output. - PDF: Disables bottom-margin furniture stripping and prevents the layout model from treating `PageFooter`-classified regions as furniture. - DOCX: Includes document footers in text output. - RTF/ODT: Footers already included; this is a no-op when true. - HTML/EPUB: Keeps `<footer>` element content. Default: `false` (footers are stripped or excluded). |
| `stripRepeatingText` | `bool` | `true` | Enable the heuristic cross-page repeating text detector. When `true` (default), text that repeats verbatim across a supermajority of pages is classified as furniture and stripped. Disable this if brand names or repeated headings are being incorrectly removed by the heuristic. Note: when a layout-detection model is active, the model may independently classify page-header / page-footer regions as furniture on a per-page basis. To preserve those regions, set `include_headers = true`, `include_footers = true`, or both, in addition to disabling this flag. Primarily affects PDF extraction. Default: `true`. |
| `includeWatermarks` | `bool` | `false` | Include watermark text in extraction output. - PDF: Keeps watermark artifacts and arXiv identifiers. - Other formats: No effect currently. Default: `false` (watermarks are stripped). |

#### DocumentExtractor
Trait for document extractor plugins.
Implement this trait to add support for new document formats or to override
built-in extraction behavior with custom logic.
### Return Type
Extractors return `InternalDocument`, a flat intermediate representation.
The pipeline converts this into the public `ExtractionResult` via the
derivation step.
### Priority System
When multiple extractors support the same MIME type, the registry selects
the extractor with the highest priority value. Use this to:
- Override built-in extractors (priority > 50)
- Provide fallback extractors (priority < 50)
- Implement specialized extractors for specific use cases
Default priority is 50.
### Thread Safety
Extractors must be thread-safe (`Send + Sync`) to support concurrent extraction.
### Methods
#### extractBytes()
Extract content from a byte array.
This is the core extraction method that processes in-memory document data.
**Returns:**
An `InternalDocument` containing the extracted elements, metadata, and tables.
The pipeline will convert this into the public `ExtractionResult`.
**Errors:**
- `KreuzbergError.Parsing` - Document parsing failed
- `KreuzbergError.Validation` - Invalid document structure
- `KreuzbergError.Io` - I/O errors (these always bubble up)
- `KreuzbergError.MissingDependency` - Required dependency not available
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn extractBytes(self: *const DocumentExtractor, content: []const u8, mime_type: [:0]const u8, config: ExtractionConfig) Error!InternalDocument
```
#### extractFile()
Extract content from a file.
Default implementation reads the file and calls `extract_bytes`.
Override for custom file handling, streaming, or memory optimizations.
**Returns:**
An `InternalDocument` containing the extracted elements, metadata, and tables.
**Errors:**
Same as `extract_bytes`, plus file I/O errors.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn extractFile(self: *const DocumentExtractor, path: [:0]const u8, mime_type: [:0]const u8, config: ExtractionConfig) Error!InternalDocument
```
#### supportedMimeTypes()
Get the list of MIME types supported by this extractor.
Can include exact MIME types and prefix patterns:
- Exact: `"application/pdf"`, `"text/plain"`
- Prefix: `"image/*"` (matches any image type)
**Returns:**
A slice of MIME type strings.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn supportedMimeTypes(self: *const DocumentExtractor) []const [:0]const u8
```
#### priority()
Get the priority of this extractor.
Higher priority extractors are preferred when multiple extractors
support the same MIME type.
### Priority Guidelines
- **0-25**: Fallback/low-quality extractors
- **26-49**: Alternative extractors
- **50**: Default priority (built-in extractors)
- **51-75**: Premium/enhanced extractors
- **76-100**: Specialized/high-priority extractors
**Returns:**
Priority value (default: 50)
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn priority(self: *const DocumentExtractor) i32
```
#### canHandle()
Optional: Check if this extractor can handle a specific file.
Allows for more sophisticated detection beyond MIME types.
Defaults to `true` (rely on MIME type matching).
**Returns:**
`true` if the extractor can handle this file, `false` otherwise.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn canHandle(self: *const DocumentExtractor, path: [:0]const u8, mime_type: [:0]const u8) bool
```
---
#### DocumentNode
A single node in the document tree.
Each node has deterministic `id`, typed `content`, optional `parent`/`children`
for tree structure, and metadata like page number, bounding box, and content layer.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `id` | `[:0]const u8` | — | Deterministic identifier (hash of content + position). |
| `content` | `NodeContent` | — | Node content — tagged enum, type-specific data only. |
| `parent` | `u32?` | `null` | Parent node index (`null` = root-level node). |
| `children` | `[]const u32` | `/* serde(default) */` | Child node indices in reading order. |
| `contentLayer` | `ContentLayer` | `/* serde(default) */` | Content layer classification. |
| `page` | `u32?` | `null` | Page number where this node starts (1-indexed). |
| `pageEnd` | `u32?` | `null` | Page number where this node ends (for multi-page tables/sections). |
| `bbox` | `BoundingBox?` | `null` | Bounding box in document coordinates. |
| `annotations` | `[]const TextAnnotation` | `/* serde(default) */` | Inline annotations (formatting, links) on this node's text content. Only meaningful for text-carrying nodes; empty for containers. |
| `attributes` | `std.StringHashMap([:0]const u8)?` | `null` | Format-specific key-value attributes. Extensible bag for miscellaneous data without a dedicated typed field: CSS classes, LaTeX environment names, Excel cell formulas, slide layout names, etc. |
---
#### DocumentRelationship
A resolved relationship between two nodes in the document tree.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `source` | `u32` | — | Source node index (the referencing node). |
| `target` | `u32` | — | Target node index (the referenced node). |
| `kind` | `RelationshipKind` | — | Semantic kind of the relationship. |
---
#### DocumentRevision
A single tracked change embedded in a document.
Populated by per-format extractors that understand change-tracking metadata
(DOCX `w:ins`/`w:del`/`w:rPrChange`, ODT `text:change-*`, …). Every
extractor defaults to `ExtractionResult.revisions = None` until a
format-specific implementation is added.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `revisionId` | `[:0]const u8` | — | Format-specific revision identifier. For DOCX this is the `w:id` attribute value on the change element (e.g. `"42"`). When the attribute is absent a synthetic fallback is generated (`"docx-ins-0"`, `"docx-del-3"`, …). |
| `author` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Display name of the author who made this change, when available. |
| `timestamp` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | ISO-8601 timestamp of the change, when available. Stored as a plain string so this type remains FFI-friendly and unconditionally available without the `chrono` optional dep. DOCX populates this from the `w:date` attribute (e.g. `"2024-03-15T10:30:00Z"`). |
| `kind` | `RevisionKind` | — | Semantic kind of this revision. |
| `anchor` | `RevisionAnchor?` | `null` | Best-effort document location for this revision. Resolution is format-dependent and may be `null` when the location cannot be determined (e.g. changes inside table cells before table-cell anchor support is added). |
| `delta` | `RevisionDelta` | — | The content changes that make up this revision. |
---
#### DocumentStructure
Top-level structured document representation.
A flat array of nodes with index-based parent/child references forming a tree.
Root-level nodes have `parent: None`. Use `body_roots()` and `furniture_roots()`
to iterate over top-level content by layer.
### Validation
Call `validate()` after construction to verify all node indices are in bounds
and parent-child relationships are bidirectionally consistent.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `nodes` | `[]const DocumentNode` | `[]` | All nodes in document/reading order. |
| `sourceFormat` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Origin format identifier (e.g. "docx", "pptx", "html", "pdf"). Allows renderers to apply format-aware heuristics when converting the document tree to output formats. |
| `relationships` | `[]const DocumentRelationship` | `[]` | Resolved relationships between nodes (footnote refs, citations, anchor links, etc.). Populated during derivation from the internal document representation. Empty when no relationships are detected. |
| `nodeTypes` | `[]const [:0]const u8` | `[]` | Sorted, deduplicated list of node type names present in this document. Each value is the snake_case `node_type` tag of the corresponding `NodeContent` variant (e.g. `"paragraph"`, `"heading"`, `"table"`, …). Computed from `nodes` via `DocumentStructure.finalize_node_types`. Empty until that method is called (internal construction paths call it at the end of derivation). |
### Methods
#### finalizeNodeTypes()
Compute and populate the `node_types` field from the current `nodes`.
Call this after all nodes have been added to the structure. Internal
construction paths (builder, derivation) call this automatically.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn finalizeNodeTypes(self: *const DocumentStructure) void
```
#### isEmpty()
Check if the document structure is empty.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn isEmpty(self: *const DocumentStructure) bool
```

---
#### EmbeddingBackend
Trait for in-process embedding backend plugins.
Async to match the convention used by `OcrBackend`,
`DocumentExtractor`, and `PostProcessor`.
Host-language bridges (PyO3, napi-rs, Rustler, extendr, magnus, ext-php-rs,
C FFI, etc.) wrap their synchronous host callables in `spawn_blocking` or the
equivalent to satisfy the async signature.
### Thread safety
Backends must be `Send + Sync + 'static`. They are stored in
`Arc<dyn EmbeddingBackend>` and called concurrently from kreuzberg's chunking
pipeline. If the backend's underlying model isn't thread-safe, the backend
itself must serialize access internally (e.g. via `Mutex<Inner>`).
### Contract
- `embed(texts)` MUST return exactly `texts.len()` vectors, each of length
`self.dimensions()`. The dispatcher in `embed_texts`
validates this before returning to downstream consumers; a non-conforming
backend surfaces as a `KreuzbergError.Validation`, not a panic.
- `embed` may be called from any thread. Its future must be `Send`
(enforced by `async_trait` when `#[async_trait]` is used on non-WASM targets).
- `dimensions()` is called exactly once at registration, immediately after
`initialize()` succeeds. The returned value is cached by the registry and
used for all subsequent shape validation. Lazy-loading implementations can
defer model loading into `initialize()` and report the real dimension
afterwards. Later mutations of the backend's reported dimension are not
observed by kreuzberg — implementations that need to change dimension
must unregister and re-register.
- `shutdown()` (inherited from `Plugin`) may be invoked
concurrently with an in-flight `embed()` call. Implementations must
tolerate this — e.g. by letting in-flight calls finish using resources
held via the `Arc<dyn EmbeddingBackend>` reference, and only releasing
shared state that isn't needed by `embed`.
### Runtime
The synchronous `embed_texts` entry uses
`tokio.task.block_in_place` to await the trait's async `embed`, which
requires a multi-thread tokio runtime. Callers running inside a
`current_thread` runtime (e.g. `#[tokio.test]` without `flavor = "multi_thread"`,
or `tokio.runtime.Builder.new_current_thread()`) must use
`embed_texts_async` instead, which awaits directly without
`block_in_place`.
### Methods
#### dimensions()
Embedding vector dimension. Must be `> 0` and must match the length of
every vector returned by `embed`.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn dimensions(self: *const EmbeddingBackend) u64
```
#### embed()
Embed a batch of texts, returning one vector per input in order.
**Errors:**
Implementations should return `Plugin` for
backend-specific failures. The dispatcher layers its own validation
(length, per-vector dimension) on top.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn embed(self: *const EmbeddingBackend, texts: []const [:0]const u8) Error![]const []const f32
```
---
#### EmbeddingConfig
Embedding configuration for text chunks.
Configures embedding generation using ONNX models via the vendored embedding engine.
Requires the `embeddings` feature to be enabled.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `model` | `EmbeddingModelType` | `EmbeddingModelType.Preset` | The embedding model to use (defaults to "balanced" preset if not specified) |
| `normalize` | `bool` | `true` | Whether to normalize embedding vectors (recommended for cosine similarity) |
| `batchSize` | `u64` | `32` | Batch size for embedding generation |
| `showDownloadProgress` | `bool` | `false` | Show model download progress |
| `cacheDir` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Custom cache directory for model files Defaults to `~/.cache/kreuzberg/embeddings/` if not specified. Allows full customization of model download location. |
| `acceleration` | `AccelerationConfig?` | `null` | Hardware acceleration for the embedding ONNX model. When set, controls which execution provider (CPU, CUDA, CoreML, TensorRT) is used for inference. Defaults to `null` (auto-select per platform). |
| `maxEmbedDurationSecs` | `u64?` | `null` | Maximum wall-clock duration (in seconds) for a single `embed()` call when using `EmbeddingModelType.Plugin`. Applies only to the in-process plugin path — protects against hung host-language backends (e.g. a Python callback deadlocked on the GIL, a model stuck on CUDA OOM retries, etc.). On timeout, the dispatcher returns `Plugin` instead of blocking forever. `null` disables the timeout. The default (60 seconds) is conservative for common in-process inference; increase for large batches on slow hardware. |
### Methods
#### default()
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn default() EmbeddingConfig
```

---
#### ExtractedImage
Extracted image from a document.
Contains raw image data, metadata, and optional nested OCR results.
Raw bytes allow cross-language compatibility - users can convert to
PIL.Image (Python), Sharp (Node.js), or other formats as needed.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `data` | `[]const u8` | — | Raw image data (PNG, JPEG, WebP, etc. bytes). Uses `bytes.Bytes` for cheap cloning of large buffers. |
| `format` | `[:0]const u8` | — | Image format (e.g., "jpeg", "png", "webp") Uses Cow<'static, str> to avoid allocation for static literals. |

Represents any link, reference, or resource pointer found during extraction.
The `kind` field classifies the URI semantically, while `label` carries
optional human-readable display text.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `url` | `[:0]const u8` | — | The URL or path string. |
| `label` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Optional display text / label for the link. |

#### ExtractionConfig
Main extraction configuration.
This struct contains all configuration options for the extraction process.
It can be loaded from TOML, YAML, or JSON files, or created programmatically.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `useCache` | `bool` | `true` | Enable caching of extraction results |
| `enableQualityProcessing` | `bool` | `true` | Enable quality post-processing |
| `ocr` | `OcrConfig?` | `null` | OCR configuration (None = OCR disabled) |
| `forceOcr` | `bool` | `false` | Force OCR even for searchable PDFs |
| `forceOcrPages` | `[]const u32?` | `null` | Force OCR on specific pages only (1-indexed page numbers, must be >= 1). When set, only the listed pages are OCR'd regardless of text layer quality. Unlisted pages use native text extraction. Ignored when `force_ocr` is `true`. Only applies to PDF documents. Duplicates are automatically deduplicated. An `ocr` config is recommended for backend/language selection; defaults are used if absent. |
| `disableOcr` | `bool` | `false` | Disable OCR entirely, even for images. When `true`, OCR is skipped for all document types. Images return metadata only (dimensions, format, EXIF) without text extraction. PDFs use only native text extraction without OCR fallback. Cannot be `true` simultaneously with `force_ocr`. *Added in v4.7.0.* |
| `chunking` | `ChunkingConfig?` | `null` | Text chunking configuration (None = chunking disabled) |
| `contentFilter` | `ContentFilterConfig?` | `null` | Content filtering configuration (None = use extractor defaults). Controls whether document "furniture" (headers, footers, watermarks, repeating text) is included in or stripped from extraction results. See `ContentFilterConfig` for per-field documentation. |
| `images` | `ImageExtractionConfig?` | `null` | Image extraction configuration (None = no image extraction) |
| `pdfOptions` | `PdfConfig?` | `null` | PDF-specific options (None = use defaults) |
| `tokenReduction` | `TokenReductionOptions?` | `null` | Token reduction configuration (None = no token reduction) |
| `languageDetection` | `LanguageDetectionConfig?` | `null` | Language detection configuration (None = no language detection) |
| `pages` | `PageConfig?` | `null` | Page extraction configuration (None = no page tracking) |
| `keywords` | `KeywordConfig?` | `null` | Keyword extraction configuration (None = no keyword extraction) |
| `postprocessor` | `PostProcessorConfig?` | `null` | Post-processor configuration (None = use defaults) |
| `htmlOptions` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | HTML to Markdown conversion options (None = use defaults) Configure how HTML documents are converted to Markdown, including heading styles, list formatting, code block styles, and preprocessing options. |
| `htmlOutput` | `HtmlOutputConfig?` | `null` | Styled HTML output configuration. When set alongside `output_format = OutputFormat.Html`, the extraction pipeline uses `StyledHtmlRenderer` which emits stable `kb-*` CSS class hooks on every structural element and optionally embeds theme CSS or user-supplied CSS in a `<style>` block. When `null`, the existing plain comrak-based HTML renderer is used. |
| `extractionTimeoutSecs` | `u64?` | `null` | Default per-file timeout in seconds for batch extraction. When set, each file in a batch will be canceled after this duration unless overridden by `FileExtractionConfig.timeout_secs`. Defaults to `Some(60)` to prevent pathological files (e.g. deeply nested archives, documents with millions of cells) from running indefinitely and exhausting caller resources. Set to `null` to disable the timeout for trusted input or long-running workloads. |
| `maxConcurrentExtractions` | `u64?` | `null` | Maximum concurrent extractions in batch operations (None = (num_cpus × 1.5).ceil()). Limits parallelism to prevent resource exhaustion when processing large batches. Defaults to (num_cpus × 1.5).ceil() when not set. |
| `resultFormat` | `ResultFormat` | `ResultFormat.Unified` | Result structure format Controls whether results are returned in unified format (default) with all content in the `content` field, or element-based format with semantic elements (for Unstructured-compatible output). |
| `securityLimits` | `SecurityLimits?` | `null` | Security limits for archive extraction. Controls maximum archive size, compression ratio, file count, and other security thresholds to prevent decompression bomb attacks. Also caps nesting depth, iteration count, entity / token length, total content size, and table cell count for every extraction path that ingests user-controlled bytes. When `null`, default limits are used. |
| `maxEmbeddedFileBytes` | `u64?` | `null` | Maximum uncompressed size in bytes for a single embedded file before recursive extraction is attempted (default: 50 MiB). Applies to embedded objects inside OOXML containers (DOCX, PPTX) and to email attachments processed via recursive extraction. Files that exceed this limit are skipped with a `ProcessingWarning` rather than passed to the extraction pipeline, preventing a single oversized embedded object from consuming unbounded memory or time. Set to `null` to disable the per-embedded-file cap (falls back to `security_limits.max_archive_size` as the only guard). |
| `outputFormat` | `OutputFormat` | `OutputFormat.Plain` | Content text format (default: Plain). Controls the format of the extracted content: - `Plain`: Raw extracted text (default) - `Markdown`: Markdown formatted output - `Djot`: Djot markup format (requires djot feature) - `Html`: HTML formatted output When set to a structured format, extraction results will include formatted output. The `formatted_content` field may be populated when format conversion is applied. |
| `layout` | `LayoutDetectionConfig?` | `null` | Layout detection configuration (None = layout detection disabled). When set, PDF pages and images are analyzed for document structure (headings, code, formulas, tables, figures, etc.) using RT-DETR models via ONNX Runtime. For PDFs, layout hints override paragraph classification in the markdown pipeline. For images, per-region OCR is performed with markdown formatting based on detected layout classes. Requires the `layout-detection` feature to run inference; the field is present whenever the `layout-types` feature is active (which includes `layout-detection` as well as the no-ORT target groups). |
| `useLayoutForMarkdown` | `bool` | `false` | Run layout detection on the non-OCR PDF markdown path. When `true` and `layout` is `Some(_)`, layout regions inform heading, table, list, and figure detection in the structure pipeline that would otherwise rely on font-clustering heuristics alone. Significantly improves SF1 (structural F1) at the cost of inference latency (~150-300ms/page CPU, ~20-50ms/page GPU). Default: `false`. Requires the `layout-detection` feature. |
| `includeDocumentStructure` | `bool` | `false` | Enable structured document tree output. When true, populates the `document` field on `ExtractionResult` with a hierarchical `DocumentStructure` containing heading-driven section nesting, table grids, content layer classification, and inline annotations. Independent of `result_format` — can be combined with Unified or ElementBased. |
| `acceleration` | `AccelerationConfig?` | `null` | Hardware acceleration configuration for ONNX Runtime models. Controls execution provider selection for layout detection and embedding models. When `null`, uses platform defaults (CoreML on macOS, CUDA on Linux, CPU on Windows). |
| `cacheNamespace` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Cache namespace for tenant isolation. When set, cache entries are stored under `{cache_dir}/{namespace}/`. Must be alphanumeric, hyphens, or underscores only (max 64 chars). Different namespaces have isolated cache spaces on the same filesystem. |
| `cacheTtlSecs` | `u64?` | `null` | Per-request cache TTL in seconds. Overrides the global `max_age_days` for this specific extraction. When `0`, caching is completely skipped (no read or write). When `null`, the global TTL applies. |
| `email` | `EmailConfig?` | `null` | Email extraction configuration (None = use defaults). Currently supports configuring the fallback codepage for MSG files that do not specify one. See `EmailConfig` for details. |
| `concurrency` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Concurrency limits for constrained environments (None = use defaults). Controls Rayon thread pool size, ONNX Runtime intra-op threads, and (when `max_concurrent_extractions` is unset) the batch concurrency semaphore. See `ConcurrencyConfig` for details. |
| `maxArchiveDepth` | `u64` | — | Maximum recursion depth for archive extraction (default: 3). Set to 0 to disable recursive extraction (legacy behavior). |
| `treeSitter` | `TreeSitterConfig?` | `null` | Tree-sitter language pack configuration (None = tree-sitter disabled). When set, enables code file extraction using tree-sitter parsers. Controls grammar download behavior and code analysis options. |
| `structuredExtraction` | `StructuredExtractionConfig?` | `null` | Structured extraction via LLM (None = disabled). When set, the extracted document content is sent to an LLM with the provided JSON schema. The structured response is stored in `ExtractionResult.structured_output`. |
| `cancelToken` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Cancellation token for this extraction (None = no external cancellation). Pass a `CancellationToken` clone here and call `CancellationToken.cancel` from another thread / task to abort the extraction in progress. The extractor checks the token at safe checkpoints (before lock acquisition, between pages, between batch items) and returns `KreuzbergError.Cancelled` when set. The field is excluded from serialization because `CancellationToken` is a runtime handle, not a configuration value. |
### Methods
#### default()
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn default() ExtractionConfig
```
#### needsImageProcessing()
Check if image processing is needed by examining OCR and image extraction settings.
Returns `true` if either OCR is enabled or image extraction is configured,
indicating that image decompression and processing should occur.
Returns `false` if both are disabled, allowing optimization to skip unnecessary
image decompression for text-only extraction workflows.
### Optimization Impact
For text-only extractions (no OCR, no image extraction), skipping image
decompression can improve CPU utilization by 5-10% by avoiding wasteful
image I/O and processing when results won't be used.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn needsImageProcessing(self: *const ExtractionConfig) bool
```
---
#### ExtractionDiff
The complete diff between two `ExtractionResult` values.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `contentDiff` | `[]const DiffHunk` | — | Unified-diff hunks for the `content` field. Empty when the content is identical. |
| `tablesAdded` | `[]const Table` | — | Tables present in `b` but not in `a` (by index position, excess right-side tables). |
| `tablesRemoved` | `[]const Table` | — | Tables present in `a` but not in `b` (by index position, excess left-side tables). |
| `tablesChanged` | `[]const TableDiff` | — | Cell-level changes for table pairs that share the same index and dimensions. |
| `metadataChanged` | `[:0]const u8` | — | Metadata difference, encoded as a JSON object with three top-level keys: `added` (keys present in `b` but not `a`), `removed` (keys present in `a` but not `b`), and `changed` (keys whose values differ — each entry is `{ "from": <value-in-a>, "to": <value-in-b> }`). This is NOT RFC 6902 JSON Patch — we deliberately chose a flatter shape to avoid pulling in a json-patch crate. If you need RFC 6902 semantics (with JSON Pointer paths) feed `a.metadata` and `b.metadata` to your preferred json-patch impl directly. |
| `embeddedChanges` | `EmbeddedChanges` | — | Changes to embedded archive children. |
---
#### ExtractionResult

| `detectedLanguages` | `[]const [:0]const u8?` | `[]` | Detected languages |
| `chunks` | `[]const Chunk?` | `[]` | Text chunks when chunking is enabled. When chunking configuration is provided, the content is split into overlapping chunks for efficient processing. Each chunk contains the text, optional embeddings (if enabled), and metadata about its position. |
| `images` | `[]const ExtractedImage?` | `[]` | Extracted images from the document. When image extraction is enabled via `ImageExtractionConfig`, this field contains all images found in the document with their raw data and metadata. Each image may optionally contain a nested `ocr_result` if OCR was performed. |
| `pages` | `[]const PageContent?` | `[]` | Per-page content when page extraction is enabled. When page extraction is configured, the document is split into per-page content with tables and images mapped to their respective pages. |
| `elements` | `[]const Element?` | `[]` | Semantic elements when element-based result format is enabled. When result_format is set to ElementBased, this field contains semantic elements with type classification, unique identifiers, and metadata for Unstructured-compatible element-based processing. |
| `djotContent` | `DjotContent?` | `null` | Rich Djot content structure (when extracting Djot documents). When extracting Djot documents with structured extraction enabled, this field contains the full semantic structure including: - Block-level elements with nesting - Inline formatting with attributes - Links, images, footnotes - Math expressions - Complete attribute information The `content` field still contains plain text for backward compatibility. Always `null` for non-Djot documents. |
| `ocrElements` | `[]const OcrElement?` | `[]` | OCR elements with full spatial and confidence metadata. When OCR is performed with element extraction enabled, this field contains the structured representation of detected text including: - Bounding geometry (rectangles or quadrilaterals) - Confidence scores (detection and recognition) - Rotation information - Hierarchical relationships (Tesseract only) This field preserves all metadata that would otherwise be lost when converting to plain text or markdown output formats. Only populated when `OcrElementConfig.include_elements` is true. |
| `document` | `DocumentStructure?` | `null` | Structured document tree (when document structure extraction is enabled). When `include_document_structure` is true in `ExtractionConfig`, this field contains the full hierarchical representation of the document including: - Heading-driven section nesting - Table grids with cell-level metadata - Content layer classification (body, header, footer, footnote) - Inline text annotations (formatting, links) - Bounding boxes and page numbers Independent of `result_format` — can be combined with Unified or ElementBased. |
| `extractedKeywords` | `[]const Keyword?` | `[]` | Extracted keywords when keyword extraction is enabled. When keyword extraction (RAKE or YAKE) is configured, this field contains the extracted keywords with scores, algorithm info, and position data. Previously stored in `metadata.additional["keywords"]`. |
| `qualityScore` | `f64?` | `null` | Document quality score from quality analysis. A value between 0.0 and 1.0 indicating the overall text quality. Previously stored in `metadata.additional["quality_score"]`. |
| `processingWarnings` | `[]const ProcessingWarning` | `[]` | Non-fatal warnings collected during processing pipeline stages. Captures errors from optional pipeline features (embedding, chunking, language detection, output formatting) that don't prevent extraction but may indicate degraded results. Previously stored as individual keys in `metadata.additional`. |
| `annotations` | `[]const PdfAnnotation?` | `[]` | PDF annotations extracted from the document. When annotation extraction is enabled via `PdfConfig.extract_annotations`, this field contains text notes, highlights, links, stamps, and other annotations found in PDF documents. |
| `children` | `[]const ArchiveEntry?` | `[]` | Nested extraction results from archive contents. When extracting archives, each processable file inside produces its own full extraction result. Set to `null` for non-archive formats. Use `max_archive_depth` in config to control recursion depth. |
| `uris` | `[]const ExtractedUri?` | `[]` | URIs/links discovered during document extraction. Contains hyperlinks, image references, citations, email addresses, and other URI-like references found in the document. Always extracted when present in the source document. |
| `revisions` | `[]const DocumentRevision?` | `[]` | Tracked changes embedded in the source document. Populated by per-format extractors that understand change-tracking metadata (DOCX `w:ins`/`w:del`/`w:rPrChange`, ODT `text:change-*`, …). Every extractor defaults to `null` until its format-specific implementation is added. Extractors that do populate this field follow the "accepted-changes" convention: inserted text is present in `content`, deleted text is absent — the revision list is the separate audit trail. |
| `structuredOutput` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Structured extraction output from LLM-based JSON schema extraction. When `structured_extraction` is configured in `ExtractionConfig`, the extracted document content is sent to a VLM with the provided JSON schema. The response is parsed and stored here as a JSON value matching the schema. |
| `codeIntelligence` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Code intelligence results from tree-sitter analysis. Populated when extracting source code files with the `tree-sitter` feature. Contains metrics, structural analysis, imports/exports, comments, docstrings, symbols, diagnostics, and optionally chunked code segments. Stored as an opaque JSON value so that all language bindings (Go, Java, C#, …) can deserialize it as a raw JSON object rather than a typed struct. The underlying type is `tree_sitter_language_pack.ProcessResult`. |
| `llmUsage` | `[]const LlmUsage?` | `[]` | LLM token usage and cost data for all LLM calls made during this extraction. Contains one entry per LLM call. Multiple entries are produced when VLM OCR, structured extraction, or LLM embeddings run during the same extraction. `null` when no LLM was used. |
| `formattedContent` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Pre-rendered content in the requested output format. Populated during `derive_extraction_result` before tree derivation consumes element data. `apply_output_format` swaps this into `content` at the end of the pipeline, after post-processors have operated on plain text. |
| `ocrInternalDocument` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Structured hOCR document for the OCR+layout pipeline. When tesseract produces hOCR output, the parsed `InternalDocument` carries paragraph structure with bounding boxes and confidence scores. The layout classification step enriches these elements before final rendering. |

| `outputFormat` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Output format identifier (e.g., "markdown", "html", "text"). Set by the output format pipeline stage when format conversion is applied. Previously stored in `metadata.additional["output_format"]`. |
| `ocrUsed` | `bool` | — | Whether OCR was used during extraction. Set to `true` whenever the extraction pipeline ran an OCR backend (Tesseract, PaddleOCR, VLM, etc.) and used that output as the primary or fallback text. `false` means native text extraction was used exclusively. |
| `additional` | `std.StringHashMap([:0]const u8)` | `{}` | Additional custom fields from postprocessors. Serialized as a nested `"additional"` object (not flattened at root level). Uses `Cow<'static, str>` keys so static string keys avoid allocation. |
### Methods
#### isEmpty()
Returns `true` when no metadata fields, format-specific metadata, or
additional postprocessor fields are populated.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn isEmpty(self: *const Metadata) bool
```
---
#### ModelPaths
Combined paths to all models needed for OCR (backward compatibility).
| Field | Type | Default | Description |

#### OcrBackend
Trait for OCR backend plugins.
Implement this trait to add custom OCR capabilities. OCR backends can be:
- Native Rust implementations (like Tesseract)
- FFI bridges to Python libraries (like EasyOCR, PaddleOCR)
- Cloud-based OCR services (Google Vision, AWS Textract, etc.)
### Thread Safety
OCR backends must be thread-safe (`Send + Sync`) to support concurrent processing.
### Methods
#### processImage()
Process an image and extract text via OCR.
**Returns:**
An `ExtractionResult` containing the extracted text and metadata.
**Errors:**
- `KreuzbergError.Ocr` - OCR processing failed
- `KreuzbergError.Validation` - Invalid image format or configuration
- `KreuzbergError.Io` - I/O errors (these always bubble up)
### Reading `backend_options`
Backends that support runtime tuning can read `config.backend_options` and
deserialize only the keys they care about. Unknown keys are silently ignored,
so multiple backends can coexist in a pipeline without key conflicts.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn processImage(self: *const OcrBackend, image_bytes: []const u8, config: OcrConfig) Error!ExtractionResult
```
#### processImageFile()
Process a file and extract text via OCR.
Default implementation reads the file and calls `process_image`.
Override for custom file handling or optimizations.
**Errors:**
Same as `process_image`, plus file I/O errors.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn processImageFile(self: *const OcrBackend, path: [:0]const u8, config: OcrConfig) Error!ExtractionResult
```
#### supportsLanguage()
Check if this backend supports a given language code.
**Returns:**
`true` if the language is supported, `false` otherwise.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn supportsLanguage(self: *const OcrBackend, lang: [:0]const u8) bool
```
#### backendType()
Get the backend type identifier.
**Returns:**
The backend type enum value.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn backendType(self: *const OcrBackend) OcrBackendType
```
#### supportedLanguages()
Optional: Get a list of all supported languages.
Defaults to empty list. Override to provide comprehensive language support info.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn supportedLanguages(self: *const OcrBackend) []const [:0]const u8
```
#### supportsTableDetection()
Optional: Check if the backend supports table detection.
Defaults to `false`. Override if your backend can detect and extract tables.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn supportsTableDetection(self: *const OcrBackend) bool
```
#### supportsDocumentProcessing()
Check if the backend supports direct document-level processing (e.g. for PDFs).
Defaults to `false`. Override if the backend has optimized document processing.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn supportsDocumentProcessing(self: *const OcrBackend) bool
```
#### processDocument()
Process a document file directly via OCR.
Only called if `supports_document_processing` returns `true`.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn processDocument(self: *const OcrBackend, path: [:0]const u8, config: OcrConfig) Error!ExtractionResult
```
---
#### OcrConfidence
Confidence scores for an OCR element.
Separates detection confidence (how confident that text exists at this location)
from recognition confidence (how confident about the actual text content).
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `detection` | `f64?` | `null` | Detection confidence: how confident the OCR engine is that text exists here. PaddleOCR provides this as `box_score`, Tesseract doesn't have a direct equivalent. Range: 0.0 to 1.0 (or None if not available). |
| `recognition` | `f64` | — | Recognition confidence: how confident about the text content. Range: 0.0 to 1.0. |
---
#### OcrConfig
OCR configuration.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `enabled` | `bool` | `true` | Whether OCR is enabled. Setting `enabled: false` is a shorthand for `disable_ocr: true` on the parent `ExtractionConfig`. Images return metadata only; PDFs use native text extraction without OCR fallback. Defaults to `true`. When `false`, all other OCR settings are ignored. |
| `backend` | `[:0]const u8` | — | OCR backend: tesseract, easyocr, paddleocr |
| `language` | `[:0]const u8` | — | Language code (e.g., "eng", "deu") |
| `tesseractConfig` | `TesseractConfig?` | `null` | Tesseract-specific configuration (optional) |
| `outputFormat` | `OutputFormat?` | `null` | Output format for OCR results (optional, for format conversion) |
| `paddleOcrConfig` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | PaddleOCR-specific configuration (optional, JSON passthrough) |
| `backendOptions` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Arbitrary per-call options passed through to the backend unchanged. Custom OCR backends and built-in backends that support runtime tuning can read this value and deserialize the keys they care about. Keys unknown to the backend are silently ignored. This is the recommended extension point for per-call parameters that are not covered by the typed fields above (e.g. mode switching, preprocessing flags, inference batch size). **Scope:** when `pipeline` is `null`, this value is propagated to the primary stage of the auto-constructed pipeline. When `pipeline` is explicitly set, this field has **no effect** — the caller must set `OcrPipelineStage.backend_options` directly on the relevant stage(s) instead. Example: ```json { "mode": "fast", "enable_layout": true, "timeout_ms": 5000 } ``` |
| `elementConfig` | `OcrElementConfig?` | `null` | OCR element extraction configuration |
| `qualityThresholds` | `OcrQualityThresholds?` | `null` | Quality thresholds for the native-text-to-OCR fallback decision. When None, uses compiled defaults (matching previous hardcoded behavior). |
| `pipeline` | `OcrPipelineConfig?` | `null` | Multi-backend OCR pipeline configuration. When set, enables weighted fallback across multiple OCR backends based on output quality. When None, uses the single `backend` field (same as today). |
| `autoRotate` | `bool` | `false` | Enable automatic page rotation based on orientation detection. When enabled, uses Tesseract's `DetectOrientationScript()` to detect page orientation (0/90/180/270 degrees) before OCR. If the page is rotated with high confidence, the image is corrected before recognition. This is critical for handling rotated scanned documents. |
| `vlmConfig` | `LlmConfig?` | `null` | VLM (Vision Language Model) OCR configuration. Required when `backend` is `"vlm"`. Uses liter-llm to send page images to a vision model for text extraction. |
| `vlmPrompt` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Custom Jinja2 prompt template for VLM OCR. When `null`, uses the default template. Available variables: - `{{ language }}` — The document language code (e.g., "eng", "deu"). |
| `acceleration` | `AccelerationConfig?` | `null` | Hardware acceleration for ONNX Runtime models (e.g. PaddleOCR, layout detection). Not user-configurable via config files — injected at runtime from `ExtractionConfig.acceleration` before each `process_image` call. |
| `tessdataBytes` | `std.StringHashMap([]const u8)?` | `null` | Caller-supplied Tesseract `traineddata` bytes per language code. Primary use case is the WASM build, which has no filesystem and cannot download tessdata at runtime. Native builds typically rely on `TessdataManager` and ignore this field. When present, the WASM Tesseract backend prefers these bytes over its compile-time-bundled English data. Skipped by serde to keep config files small — supply via the typed API at runtime. |

---
#### OcrPipelineConfig

Backends are tried in priority order (highest first). After each backend
produces output, quality is evaluated. If it meets `quality_thresholds.pipeline_min_quality`,

Example (custom backend): ```json { "mode": "fast", "enable_layout": true } ``` |
---
#### OcrQualityThresholds

---
#### PageContent
Content for a single page/slide.
When page extraction is enabled, documents are split into per-page content
with associated tables and images mapped to each page.
### Performance
Uses Arc-wrapped tables and images for memory efficiency:
- `Vec<Arc<Table>>` enables zero-copy sharing of table data
- `Vec<Arc<ExtractedImage>>` enables zero-copy sharing of image data
- Maintains exact JSON compatibility via custom Serialize/Deserialize
This reduces memory overhead for documents with shared tables/images
by avoiding redundant copies during serialization.

| `hidden` | `bool?` | `null` | Whether this page is hidden (e.g., in presentations) |
| `isBlank` | `bool?` | `null` | Whether this page is blank (no meaningful text, no images, no tables) A page is considered blank if it has fewer than 3 non-whitespace characters and contains no tables or images. This is useful for filtering out empty pages in scanned documents or PDFs with blank separator pages. |
| `hasVectorGraphics` | `bool` | `/* serde(default) */` | Whether this page contains non-trivial vector graphics (paths, shapes, curves) Indicates the presence of vector-drawn content such as charts, diagrams, or geometric shapes (e.g., from Adobe InDesign, LaTeX TikZ). These are invisible to `ExtractionResult.images` since they are not embedded as raster XObjects. Set to `true` when path count exceeds a heuristic threshold, signaling that downstream consumers may want to rasterize the page to capture this content. Only populated for PDFs; `null` for other document types. |
---
#### PageStructure
Unified page structure for documents.
Supports different page types (PDF pages, PPTX slides, Excel sheets)
with character offset boundaries for chunk-to-page mapping.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `totalCount` | `u32` | — | Total number of pages/slides/sheets |
| `unitType` | `PageUnitType` | — | Type of paginated unit |
| `boundaries` | `[]const PageBoundary?` | `null` | Character offset boundaries for each page Maps character ranges in the extracted content to page numbers. Used for chunk page range calculation. |
| `pages` | `[]const PageInfo?` | `null` | Detailed per-page metadata (optional, only when needed) |
---
#### PdfAnnotation
A PDF annotation extracted from a document page.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `annotationType` | `PdfAnnotationType` | — | The type of annotation. |
| `content` | `[:0]const u8?` | `null` | Text content of the annotation (e.g., comment text, link URL). |
| `pageNumber` | `u32` | — | Page number where the annotation appears (1-indexed). |
| `boundingBox` | `BoundingBox?` | `null` | Bounding box of the annotation on the page. |
---
#### PdfConfig
PDF-specific configuration.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `extractImages` | `bool` | `false` | Extract images from PDF |
| `extractTables` | `bool` | `true` | Extract tables from PDF. When `true` (default), runs pdf_oxide's native grid detector and, if it finds nothing, falls back to the heuristic text-layer reconstruction in `pdf.oxide.table.extract_tables_heuristic`. Set to `false` to skip both passes — `tables` will then be empty in the result. |
| `passwords` | `[]const [:0]const u8?` | `null` | List of passwords to try when opening encrypted PDFs |
| `extractMetadata` | `bool` | `true` | Extract PDF metadata |
| `hierarchy` | `HierarchyConfig?` | `null` | Hierarchy extraction configuration (None = hierarchy extraction disabled) |
| `extractAnnotations` | `bool` | `false` | Extract PDF annotations (text notes, highlights, links, stamps). Default: false |
| `topMarginFraction` | `f32?` | `null` | Top margin fraction (0.01.0) of page height to exclude headers/running heads. Default: 0.06 (6%) |
| `bottomMarginFraction` | `f32?` | `null` | Bottom margin fraction (0.01.0) of page height to exclude footers/page numbers. Default: 0.05 (5%) |
| `allowSingleColumnTables` | `bool` | `false` | Allow single-column pseudo tables in extraction results. By default, tables with fewer than 2 columns (layout-guided) or 3 columns (heuristic) are rejected. When `true`, the minimum column count is relaxed to 1, allowing single-column structured data (glossaries, itemized lists) to be emitted as tables. Other quality filters (density, sparsity, prose detection) still apply. |
| `ocrInlineImages` | `bool` | `false` | Perform OCR on inline images extracted from PDF pages and attach the recognized text to each `ExtractedImage.ocr_result`. Requires Tesseract to be available; if `ExtractionConfig.ocr` is `null` the extractor falls back to `TesseractConfig.default()`. Per-image failures degrade gracefully (the image is returned without OCR text rather than failing the whole extraction). Default: `false`. |
### Methods
#### default()
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn default() PdfConfig
```
---

#### Plugin
Base trait that all plugins must implement.
This trait provides common functionality for plugin lifecycle management,
identification, and metadata.
### Thread Safety
All plugins must be `Send + Sync` to support concurrent usage across threads.
### Methods
#### name()
Returns the unique name/identifier for this plugin.
The name should be:
- Unique across all plugins
- Lowercase with hyphens (e.g., "my-custom-plugin")
- URL-safe characters only
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn name(self: *const Plugin) [:0]const u8
```
#### version()
Returns the semantic version of this plugin.
Should follow semver format: `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`
Defaults to the kreuzberg crate version.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn version(self: *const Plugin) [:0]const u8
```
#### initialize()
Initialize the plugin.
Called once when the plugin is registered. Use this to:
- Load configuration
- Initialize resources (connections, caches, etc.)
- Validate dependencies
### Thread Safety
This method takes `&self` instead of `&mut self` to work with `Arc<dyn Plugin>`.
Plugins needing mutable state during initialization should use interior mutability
patterns (Mutex, RwLock, OnceCell, etc.).
**Errors:**
Should return an error if initialization fails. The plugin will not be
registered if this method returns an error.
Defaults to a no-op for stateless plugins.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn initialize(self: *const Plugin) Error!void
```
#### shutdown()
Shutdown the plugin.
Called when the plugin is being unregistered or the application is shutting down.
Use this to:
- Close connections
- Flush caches
- Release resources
### Thread Safety
This method takes `&self` instead of `&mut self` to work with `Arc<dyn Plugin>`.
Plugins needing mutable state during shutdown should use interior mutability
patterns (Mutex, RwLock, etc.).
**Errors:**
Errors during shutdown are logged but don't prevent the shutdown process.
Defaults to a no-op for stateless plugins.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn shutdown(self: *const Plugin) Error!void
```
#### description()
Optional plugin description for debugging and logging.
Defaults to empty string if not overridden.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn description(self: *const Plugin) [:0]const u8
```
#### author()
Optional plugin author information.
Defaults to empty string if not overridden.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn author(self: *const Plugin) [:0]const u8
```
---
#### PostProcessor
Trait for post-processor plugins.
Post-processors transform or enrich extraction results after the initial
extraction is complete. They can:
- Clean and normalize text
- Add metadata (language, keywords, entities)
- Split content into chunks
- Score quality
- Apply custom transformations
### Processing Order
Post-processors are executed in stage order:
1. **Early** - Language detection, entity extraction
2. **Middle** - Keyword extraction, token reduction
3. **Late** - Custom hooks, final validation
Within each stage, processors are executed in registration order.
### Error Handling
Post-processor errors are non-fatal by default - they're captured in metadata
and execution continues. To make errors fatal, return an error from `process()`.
### Thread Safety
Post-processors must be thread-safe (`Send + Sync`).
### Methods
#### process()
Process an extraction result.
Transform or enrich the extraction result. Can modify:
- `content` - The extracted text
- `metadata` - Add or update metadata fields
- `tables` - Modify or enhance table data
**Returns:**
`Ok(())` if processing succeeded, `Err(...)` for fatal failures.
**Errors:**
Return errors for fatal processing failures. Non-fatal errors should be
captured in metadata directly on the result.
### Performance
This signature avoids unnecessary cloning of large extraction results by
taking a mutable reference instead of ownership. Processors modify the
result in place.
### Example - Language Detection
### Example - Text Cleaning
```rust
async fn process(&self, result: &mut ExtractionResult, config: &ExtractionConfig)
-> Result<()> {
// Remove excessive whitespace
result.content = result
.content
.split_whitespace()
.collect::<Vec<_>>()
.join(" ");
Ok(())
}
```
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn process(self: *const PostProcessor, result: ExtractionResult, config: ExtractionConfig) Error!void
```
#### processingStage()
Get the processing stage for this post-processor.
Determines when this processor runs in the pipeline.
**Returns:**
The `ProcessingStage` (Early, Middle, or Late).
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn processingStage(self: *const PostProcessor) ProcessingStage
```
#### shouldProcess()
Optional: Check if this processor should run for a given result.
Allows conditional processing based on MIME type, metadata, or content.
Defaults to `true` (always run).
**Returns:**
`true` if the processor should run, `false` to skip.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn shouldProcess(self: *const PostProcessor, result: ExtractionResult, config: ExtractionConfig) bool
```
#### estimatedDurationMs()
Optional: Estimate processing time in milliseconds.
Used for logging and debugging. Defaults to 0 (unknown).
**Returns:**
Estimated processing time in milliseconds.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn estimatedDurationMs(self: *const PostProcessor, result: ExtractionResult) u64
```
#### priority()
Execution priority within the processing stage.
Higher values run first within the same `ProcessingStage`. Defaults to 50.
Use 0-49 for fallback processors, 50 for normal processors, and 51-255
for high-priority processors that should run early in their stage.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn priority(self: *const PostProcessor) i32

---
#### RecognizedTable
Pre-computed table markdown for a table detection region.
Produced by the TATR-based table structure recognizer and surfaced as part of
layout-aware OCR results. The struct lives here (under `layout-types`, pure-Rust)
so that consumers who do not enable `layout-detection` (ORT) can still reference
the type in their own code.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `detectionBbox` | `BBox` | — | Detection bbox that this table corresponds to (for matching). |
| `cells` | `[]const []const [:0]const u8` | — | Table cells as a 2D vector (rows × columns). |
| `markdown` | `[:0]const u8` | — | Rendered markdown table. |
---
#### Renderer
Trait for document renderers that convert `InternalDocument` to output strings.
Renderers are typically stateless converters that transform the internal
document representation into a specific output format (Markdown, HTML,
Djot, plain text, etc.). They participate in the standard `Plugin`
lifecycle so custom renderers can be registered from any supported binding
language.
The format name is exposed via `Plugin.name`. For stateless renderers
the `Plugin` lifecycle methods (`version`, `initialize`, `shutdown`) all
take no-op defaults and need not be overridden.
### Thread Safety
Renderers must be `Send + Sync` (inherited from `Plugin`).
### Methods
#### render()
Render an `InternalDocument` to the output format.
**Returns:**
The rendered output as a string.
**Errors:**
Returns an error if rendering fails.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn render(self: *const Renderer, doc: InternalDocument) Error![:0]const u8
```
---
#### RevisionDelta
The content changes that make up a single revision.
For insertions and deletions the `content` field carries the added/removed
lines as `DiffLine.Added` / `DiffLine.Removed` entries. For format
changes, `content` is empty — the property diff is left as a TODO for a
later enrichment pass.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `content` | `[]const DiffLine` | `[]` | Line-level content changes for this revision. |
| `tableChanges` | `[]const CellChange` | `[]` | Cell-level table changes for this revision. |
---
#### SecurityLimits

while still supporting legitimate documents.
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|

| `maxEntityLength` | `u64` | `1048576` | Maximum length of any single XML entity / attribute / token (1 MiB). This is a per-token cap, NOT a total cap — billion-laughs class attacks where a single entity expands to hundreds of MB are caught here, while normal long text content (a paragraph, a CDATA block) is caught by `max_content_size` instead. |
| `maxContentSize` | `u64` | `104857600` | Maximum string growth per document (100 MB) |
| `maxIterations` | `u64` | `10000000` | Maximum iterations per operation |

#### Validator
Trait for validator plugins.
Validators check extraction results for quality, completeness, or correctness.
Unlike post-processors, validator errors **fail fast** - if a validator returns
an error, the extraction fails immediately.
### Use Cases
- **Quality Gates**: Ensure extracted content meets minimum quality standards
- **Compliance**: Verify content meets regulatory requirements
- **Content Filtering**: Reject documents containing unwanted content
- **Format Validation**: Verify extracted content structure
- **Security Checks**: Scan for malicious content
### Error Handling
Validator errors are **fatal** - they cause the extraction to fail and bubble up
to the caller. Use validators for hard requirements that must be met.
For non-fatal checks, use post-processors instead.
### Thread Safety
Validators must be thread-safe (`Send + Sync`).
### Methods
#### validate()
Validate an extraction result.
Check the extraction result and return `Ok(())` if valid, or an error
if validation fails.
**Returns:**
- `Ok(())` if validation passes
- `Err(...)` if validation fails (extraction will fail)
**Errors:**
- `KreuzbergError.Validation` - Validation failed
- Any other error type appropriate for the failure
### Example - Content Length Validation
```rust
async fn validate(&self, result: &ExtractionResult, config: &ExtractionConfig)
-> Result<()> {
let length = result.content.len();
if length < self.min {
return Err(KreuzbergError::validation(format!(
"Content too short: {} < {} characters",
length, self.min
)));
}
if length > self.max {
return Err(KreuzbergError::validation(format!(
"Content too long: {} > {} characters",
length, self.max
)));
}
Ok(())
}
```
### Example - Quality Score Validation
```rust
async fn validate(&self, result: &ExtractionResult, config: &ExtractionConfig)
-> Result<()> {
// Check if quality_score exists in metadata
let score = result.metadata
.additional
.get("quality_score")
.and_then(|v| v.as_f64())
.unwrap_or(0.0);
if score < self.min_score {
return Err(KreuzbergError::validation(format!(
"Quality score too low: {} < {}",
score, self.min_score
)));
}
Ok(())
}
```
### Example - Security Validation
```rust
async fn validate(&self, result: &ExtractionResult, config: &ExtractionConfig)
-> Result<()> {
// Check for blocked patterns
for pattern in &self.blocked_patterns {
if result.content.contains(pattern) {
return Err(KreuzbergError::validation(format!(
"Content contains blocked pattern: {}",
pattern
)));
}
}
Ok(())
}
```

pub fn validate(self: *const Validator, result: ExtractionResult, config: ExtractionConfig) Error!void
```
#### shouldValidate()
Optional: Check if this validator should run for a given result.

Defaults to `true` (always run).
**Returns:**
`true` if the validator should run, `false` to skip.
**Signature:**
```zig
pub fn shouldValidate(self: *const Validator, result: ExtractionResult, config: ExtractionConfig) bool
```
#### priority()
Optional: Get the validation priority.
Higher priority validators run first. Useful for ordering validation checks
(e.g., run cheap validations before expensive ones).
Default priority is 50.
**Returns:**
Priority value (higher = runs earlier).

| `GitHub` | GitHub Markdown-inspired palette and spacing. |
| `Dark` | Dark background, light text. |
| `Light` | Minimal light theme with generous whitespace. |
| `Unstyled` | No built-in stylesheet emitted. CSS custom properties are still defined on `:root` so user stylesheets can reference `var(--kb-*)` tokens. |
---
#### TableModel
Which table structure recognition model to use.
Controls the model used for table cell detection within layout-detected
table regions. Wire format is snake_case in all serializers (JSON, TOML,
YAML).
| Value | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `Tatr` | TATR (Table Transformer) -- default, 30MB, DETR-based row/column detection. |
| `SlanetWired` | SLANeXT wired variant -- 365MB, optimized for bordered tables. |
| `SlanetWireless` | SLANeXT wireless variant -- 365MB, optimized for borderless tables. |
| `SlanetPlus` | SLANet-plus -- 7.78MB, lightweight general-purpose. |
| `SlanetAuto` | Classifier-routed SLANeXT: auto-select wired/wireless per table. Uses PP-LCNet classifier (6.78MB) + both SLANeXT variants (730MB total). |

---
#### ChunkerType
Type of text chunker to use.
### Variants
- `Text` - Generic text splitter, splits on whitespace and punctuation
- `Markdown` - Markdown-aware splitter, preserves formatting and structure
- `Yaml` - YAML-aware splitter, creates one chunk per top-level key
- `Semantic` - Topic-aware chunker. With an `EmbeddingConfig`, splits at
embedding-based topic shifts tuned by `topic_threshold` (default 0.75,
lower = more splits). Without an embedding, falls back to a
structural-boundary heuristic (ALL-CAPS headers, numbered sections,
blank-line paragraphs) and merges groups into chunks capped at
`max_characters` (default 1000). `topic_threshold` has no effect in the
fallback path. For best results, pair with an embedding model.
| Value | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `Text` | Text format |
| `Markdown` | Markdown format |
| `Yaml` | Yaml format |
| `Semantic` | Semantic |
---
#### ChunkSizing
How chunk size is measured.
Defaults to `Characters` (Unicode character count). When using token-based sizing,
chunks are sized by token count according to the specified tokenizer.
Token-based sizing uses HuggingFace tokenizers loaded at runtime. Any tokenizer
available on HuggingFace Hub can be used, including OpenAI-compatible tokenizers
(e.g., `Xenova/gpt-4o`, `Xenova/cl100k_base`).
| Value | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `Characters` | Size measured in Unicode characters (default). |
| `Tokenizer` | Size measured in tokens from a HuggingFace tokenizer. — Fields: `model`: `[:0]const u8`, `cacheDir`: `[:0]const u8` |
---
#### EmbeddingModelType
Embedding model types supported by Kreuzberg.
| Value | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `Preset` | Use a preset model configuration (recommended) — Fields: `name`: `[:0]const u8` |
| `Custom` | Use a custom ONNX model from HuggingFace — Fields: `modelId`: `[:0]const u8`, `dimensions`: `u64` |
| `Llm` | Provider-hosted embedding model via liter-llm. Uses the model specified in the nested `LlmConfig` (e.g., `"openai/text-embedding-3-small"`). — Fields: `llm`: `LlmConfig` |
| `Plugin` | In-process embedding backend registered via the plugin system. The caller registers an `EmbeddingBackend` once (e.g. a wrapper around an already-loaded `llama-cpp-python`, `sentence-transformers`, or tuned ONNX model), then references it by name in config. Kreuzberg calls back into the registered backend during chunking and standalone embed requests — no HuggingFace download, no ONNX Runtime requirement, no HTTP sidecar. When this variant is selected, only the following `EmbeddingConfig` fields apply: `normalize` (post-call L2 normalization) and `max_embed_duration_secs` (dispatcher timeout). Model-loading fields (`batch_size`, `cache_dir`, `show_download_progress`, `acceleration`) are ignored — the host owns the model lifecycle. Semantic chunking falls back to `ChunkingConfig.max_characters` when this variant is used, since there is no preset to look a chunk-size ceiling up against — size your context window via `max_characters` directly. See `register_embedding_backend`. — Fields: `name`: `[:0]const u8` |
