Question: is possible use external database? about olaf HOT 1 CLOSED

There is currently no support for a client/server architecture built into Olaf. The details also very much depend on the use case.

There are certainly ways to put an API in front of Olaf to allow a server/client model. The client would then extract prints and send them via an API call to a server waiting for incoming data. The most simple implementation would send the result of an 'olaf print' command to a server (e.g. via a REST call) and respond with a recognition result.

I see a client server infrastructure as something that can be built around Olaf components and I do not see this not as a part of the core of Olaf. Especially since each use case will have different trade-offs, a one-size-fits-all solution seems also rather difficult.
