# Docling Studio
|
||
|
||

|
||

|
||

|
||

|
||

|
||
[](https://github.com/scub-france/Docling-Studio)
|
||
|
||
A visual document analysis studio powered by [Docling](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling).
|
||
Upload a PDF, configure the extraction pipeline, and visualize the results — text, tables, images, formulas, bounding boxes — all from your browser.
|
||
|
||

|

## Features
|
||
|
||
- **Home page** with quick upload and recent documents
|
||
- **PDF viewer** with page navigation, bounding box overlay, and resizable results panel
|
||
- **Configurable Docling pipeline** — OCR, table extraction, code/formula enrichment, picture classification & description, image generation
|
||
- **Bounding box visualization** — color-coded element overlay directly on the PDF
|
||
- **Per-page results** — right panel syncs with the current PDF page
|
||
- **Chunking** — split extracted content into semantic chunks (hierarchical, hybrid, or page-based) with configurable token limits and inline editing
|
||
- **Ingestion pipeline** — Docling → chunking → embedding → OpenSearch vector indexing (one-click from Studio)
|
||
- **Markdown & HTML export** of extracted content
|
||
- **Document management** — upload, list, delete, search, filter by indexing status
|
||
- **Analysis history** — re-visit and open past analyses
|
||
- **Upload limits** — configurable max file size and max page count per document
|
||
- **Rate limiting** — configurable requests per minute per IP
|
||
- **Dark / Light theme** and **FR / EN** localization

|

|
||
## Quick Start
|
||
|
||
One command, nothing else to install:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker run -p 3000:3000 ghcr.io/scub-france/docling-studio:latest-local
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000), upload a PDF, and get results. That's it.
|
||
|
||
> **Note:** The first analysis takes longer as Docling downloads its ML models (~400 MB). Subsequent runs are fast.
|
||
|
||
### Image variants
|
||
|
||
| Variant | Image tag | Size | Description |
|
||
|---------|-----------|------|-------------|
|
||
| **local** | `latest-local` | ~1.9 GB | Full — runs Docling in-process, CPU-only |
|
||
| **remote** | `latest-remote` | ~270 MB | Lightweight — delegates to an external [Docling Serve](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling-serve) instance |
|
||
|
||
For remote mode:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker run -p 3000:3000 \
|
||
-e DOCLING_SERVE_URL=http://your-docling-serve:5001 \
|
||
ghcr.io/scub-france/docling-studio:latest-remote
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Docker Compose
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://github.com/scub-france/Docling-Studio.git
|
||
cd Docling-Studio
|
||
|
||
# Simple mode (backend + frontend only)
|
||
docker compose up --build
|
||
|
||
# With ingestion pipeline (OpenSearch + embeddings)
|
||
docker compose --profile ingestion -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.ingestion.yml up --build
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Local Development
|
||
|
||
**Backend** (Python 3.12+):
|
||
```bash
|
||
cd document-parser
|
||
python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
|
||
|
||
# Remote mode (lightweight)
|
||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||
|
||
# Local mode (with Docling)
|
||
pip install -r requirements-local.txt
|
||
|
||
uvicorn main:app --reload --port 8000
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Frontend** (Node 20+):
|
||
```bash
|
||
cd frontend
|
||
npm install
|
||
npm run dev
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Running Tests
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Backend (377 tests)
|
||
cd document-parser
|
||
pip install pytest pytest-asyncio httpx
|
||
pytest tests/ -v
|
||
|
||
# Frontend (156 tests)
|
||
cd frontend
|
||
npm run test:run
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Pipeline Options
|
||

||
These options map directly to Docling's [`PdfPipelineOptions`](https://docling-project.github.io/docling/usage/). See the [Docling documentation](https://docling-project.github.io/docling/) for details on each feature.

|
||
| `do_table_structure` | `true` | Table detection and row/column reconstruction |

| `generate_page_images` | `false` | Rasterize each page as an image |
|
||
| `images_scale` | `1.0` | Scale factor for generated images (0.1–10) |
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
All configuration is done via environment variables. See [`.env.example`](.env.example).
|
||
|
||
| Variable | Default | Description |
|
||
|----------|---------|-------------|
|
||
| `CONVERSION_ENGINE` | `local` | `local` (in-process Docling) or `remote` (Docling Serve) |
|
||
| `DOCLING_SERVE_URL` | `http://localhost:5001` | Docling Serve endpoint (remote mode only) |
|
||
| `DOCLING_SERVE_API_KEY` | — | API key for Docling Serve (optional) |
|
||
| `CORS_ORIGINS` | `http://localhost:3000,...` | CORS allowed origins (comma-separated) |
|
||
| `UPLOAD_DIR` | `./uploads` | File storage directory |
|
||
| `DB_PATH` | `./data/docling_studio.db` | SQLite database path |
|
||
| `CONVERSION_TIMEOUT` | `600` | Max seconds for a single Docling conversion |
|
||
| `BATCH_PAGE_SIZE` | `5` (Docker) / `0` | Pages per batch (`0` = process all at once) |
|
||
| `MAX_FILE_SIZE_MB` | `50` | Maximum upload file size in MB (`0` = unlimited) |
|
||
| `MAX_PAGE_COUNT` | `0` | Maximum number of pages per document (`0` = unlimited) |
|
||
| `RATE_LIMIT_RPM` | `100` | Max requests per minute per IP (`0` = disabled) |
|
||
|
||
## Upload Limits
|
||
|
||
Docling Studio enforces configurable limits on uploaded documents to protect the server against oversized files and long-running analyses:
|
||
|
||
- **`MAX_FILE_SIZE_MB`** (default `50`) — rejects uploads exceeding this size. Validated at two levels: early `Content-Length` check and streaming byte count.
|
||
- **`MAX_PAGE_COUNT`** (default `0` = unlimited) — rejects documents with more pages than allowed. Useful on shared instances or Hugging Face Spaces to cap processing time.
|
||
|
||
Both limits are exposed in the `/api/health` endpoint so the frontend can display them to the user before upload. Set either to `0` to disable the corresponding check.
|
||
|
||
## Ingestion Pipeline (opt-in)
|
||
|
||
Docling Studio can optionally index extracted chunks into [OpenSearch](https://opensearch.org/) for vector and full-text search. This requires two additional services (OpenSearch + embedding) and is **disabled by default**.
|
||
|
||
To enable ingestion with Docker Compose:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker compose --profile ingestion \
|
||
-f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.ingestion.yml \
|
||
up --build
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
When ingestion is enabled, the UI shows:
|
||
- An **Ingest** button in Studio to push chunks to OpenSearch
|
||
- An **OpenSearch** connection status badge in the sidebar
|
||
- **Indexed / Not indexed** filters on the Documents page
|
||
- A **Search** page for full-text and vector search across indexed documents
|
||
|
||
| Variable | Default | Description |
|
||
|----------|---------|-------------|
|
||
| `OPENSEARCH_URL` | — | OpenSearch endpoint (empty = ingestion disabled) |
|
||
| `EMBEDDING_URL` | — | Embedding service endpoint (empty = ingestion disabled) |
|
||
| `EMBEDDING_DIMENSION` | `384` | Vector dimension (must match embedding model) |
|
||
|
||
## CI / Release
|
||
|
||
GitHub Actions pipelines (see [`.github/workflows/`](.github/workflows/)):
|
||
|
||
| Workflow | Trigger | What it does |
|
||
|----------|---------|--------------|
|
||
| **CI** | push to `main`, pull requests | Lint + type check + Backend tests + Frontend tests + build |
|
||
| **Release** | push tag `v*` | Build & push **two** multi-arch Docker images (`remote` + `local`) to `ghcr.io` |
