Bug (问题描述)
The Documentation section in langchain-paddleocr/README.md links to:
https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/integrations/providers/baidu
But this URL returns 404 page. It also points to the general Baidu provider rather than documentation for langchain-paddleocr or PaddleOCRVLLoader.
There does not appear to be a currently published dedicated LangChain page for this integration. Because PaddleOCRVLLoader uses the PaddleOCR official Python API client, I suggest replacing the broken link with this link:
Optionally, the README can also link to the PaddleOCR-VL deployment and inference tutorial page:
https://www.paddleocr.ai/latest/en/version3.x/pipeline_usage/PaddleOCR-VL.html
♂️ Environment (运行环境)
Documentation-only issue. Reproduced in a web browser on September 16, 2026.
Minimal Reproducible Example (最小可复现问题的Demo)
Follow the steps:
- Open langchain-paddleocr/README.md
- Scroll to the “Documentation” section.
- Click “LangChain Docs.”
- Observe the 404 response.
Expectation was a live documentation page relevant to PaddleOCRVLLoader.
Actual behavior: the linked LangChain Baidu provider page returns 404.
