const Client = require('@veryfi/veryfi-sdk');
const client_id = 'your_client_id';
const client_secret = 'your_client_secret';
const username = 'your_username';
const api_key = 'your_password';
const categories = ['Grocery', 'Utilities', 'Travel'];
const file_path = './test/receipt.png';This submits a document for processing (3-5 seconds for a response)
let veryfi_client = new Client(client_id, client_secret, username, api_key);
let response = veryfi_client.process_document(file_path, categories=categories).then(response => {
console.log(response)
});...or with a URL
let response = veryfi_client.process_document_url(url, external_id=some_id).then(response => {
