Setup

You will need to install ZipArchive or any dependencies. For Docker that looks like the following.

  && docker-php-ext-install zip

PhpAbbyy can be installed to your project via Composer by adding the following line to your composer.json file:

Once Phpabbyy library is installed, you'll need to let UDOIT know which file conversion library you'll be using.
