RE: Tika jar without dependencies

[Jana, Kumar Raja]

Hi Chris,
The tika-core.jar does not contain the classes in tika-parsers.jar and also 
those in tika-app/src folder. Please correct me if I am looking at the wrong 
folder. 
I usually execute "mvn dependency:copy-dependencies" after building tika on my 
machine. From the target/dependency folder, I see that tika-core jar and 
tika-parsers jar are dependencies for tika-app.
Also, tika-app has tika-cli and tika-gui which I find very useful. 

Thanks,
Kumar

....CC¹ing to tika-user@, because this is probably more a question for the

Hi Kumar,

I think what you want is the tika-core jar -- it contains only the core tika
classes, no dependencies, and no parsing or app code. Give that a try. You
can find that jar in your m2 repo, likely:
$HOME/.m2/repository/org/apache/tika.

HTH,
Chris
