How to read a SMS verification code in Python?

To read a text message verification code, you can use the third-party library pytesseract in Python for image recognition. Here is an example code:

Firstly, you need to install the pytesseract library. You can install it using the pip command.

pip install pytesseract

Next, you will need to install an OCR engine. pytesseract uses the Tesseract OCR engine for image recognition. You can download and install Tesseract from https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract.

After installation is complete, you can use the following code to read the SMS verification code:

import pytesseract
from PIL import Image

# 打开验证码图片
image = Image.open('captcha.png')

# 使用pytesseract进行图像识别
captcha = pytesseract.image_to_string(image)

# 输出识别结果
print(captcha)

Please note that this method only works for standard alphanumeric captchas. For more complex forms of captchas such as skewed, distorted, or with interference lines, the recognition may not be as effective. In these cases, you may need to use more advanced image processing and pattern recognition techniques to solve them.
