# RapidOCR model mirror

A mirror of the [RapidAI/RapidOCR](https://www.modelscope.cn/models/RapidAI/RapidOCR)
model repository, re-hosted on Hugging Face so that downstream services can
fetch the weights from Hugging Face instead of `modelscope.cn`.

The files here are **byte-for-byte copies** of the corresponding files in the
upstream ModelScope repository at tag **`v3.9.2`** (302 files, ~3.6 GB: ONNX,
MNN, Paddle, and Torch model formats, character dictionaries, fonts, and test
files). No files were modified; relative paths are preserved.

## URL mapping

A file at the upstream revision URL

```
https://www.modelscope.cn/models/RapidAI/RapidOCR/resolve/v3.9.2/onnx/PP-OCRv6/rec/PP-OCRv6_rec_small.onnx
```

is mirrored at

```
https://huggingface.co/DjB314/RapidOCR/resolve/main/v3.9.2/onnx/PP-OCRv6/rec/PP-OCRv6_rec_small.onnx
```

In other words, the upstream revision prefix `resolve/v3.9.2/…` maps to
`resolve/main/v3.9.2/…` here, and the directory layout below the version
matches upstream exactly. Any tool that swaps the host + repo can therefore
use this mirror without changing paths.

## Usage

Direct download:

```bash
curl -L -o PP-OCRv6_rec_small.onnx \
  https://huggingface.co/DjB314/RapidOCR/resolve/main/v3.9.2/onnx/PP-OCRv6/rec/PP-OCRv6_rec_small.onnx
```

Hugging Face Hub:

```bash
hf download DjB314/RapidOCR v3.9.2/onnx/PP-OCRv6/rec/PP-OCRv6_rec_small.onnx --local-dir .
# or the whole tree:
hf download DjB314/RapidOCR --repo-type model --local-dir rapidocr-models
```

Downstream tools that previously fetched from the upstream ModelScope URL
can switch to this mirror by swapping the host+repo in the URL — see the
[URL mapping](#url-mapping) section. The relative paths below the version are
identical to upstream, so no path changes are needed.

The files carry no modification timestamps from upstream, so integrity
checking is by checksum: see [verification](#verification).

## Versioning & refresh policy

| Revision mirrored | Files | Size | Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| `v3.9.2` | 302 | ~3.6 GB | 2026-08 |

This mirror tracks upstream **tags only** (never arbitrary `main` changes).
When RapidAI tags a new release, the mirror is re-synced and this table is
updated. If you depend on a newer tag before that happens, open an issue.

## Verification

Each staged file is copied verbatim from upstream and checked against the
SHA-256 recorded in the upstream ModelScope file listing; mismatches are
re-downloaded or reported, never shipped. To verify a downloaded file locally:

```bash
sha256sum PP-OCRv6_rec_small.onnx
# compare against the upstream listing:
# https://www.modelscope.cn/api/v1/models/RapidAI/RapidOCR/repo/files?Revision=v3.9.2&Recursive=true
```
