Tyler Palsulich commented on TIKA-411:
--------------------------------------
That's definitely a nicer list. But, what is the "something" which calls Tika
App? We don't know if/where trunk/the jar is. So, just have the user call Tika
App, then add the generated list to formats.apt? Still seems clunky... But,
what do you think of adding another option to Tika App:
--list-parser-details-apt? This would output the list with the proper apt list
format, with links to the JavaDoc for each parser. I'll add a patch with what I
mean in a few minutes.
> Generate list of supported and detected types automatically

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-411
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently we edit the list of supported types
> (http://lucene.apache.org/tika/0.7/formats.html) manually, which is bound to
> leave the list outdated and incomplete. It would be better if the list was
> automatically generated from the tika-mimetypes.xml file and the
> getSupportedTypes() response of the AutoDetectParser class.
