This documentation is for the tabula-extractor library. If you are looking for the main Tabula app, please visit http://tabula.technology/ or this repo instead.


There are currently two ways to directly use the tabula-extractor engine:

  • [[as a command line tool called tabula|Using-the-command-line-tabula-extractor-tool]], which you can use to create bash scripts (and call from other languages by using exec/popen, etc)
  • directly as a jruby library, inside ruby scripts that run on JRuby.

Note that Tabula requires JRuby (a version of Ruby that runs inside the Java JVM). It won't work on a normal copy of Ruby.

See also: README.md in the main repo for other examples and high-level documentation.
