Tim Allison created TIKA-1488:
---------------------------------
Summary: Add X-Tika- as "namespace" for info from Tika about the
parsing process
Key: TIKA-1488
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1488
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Tim Allison
Priority: Trivial
As we discuss moving into more complex combinations of parsers, there may be a
usefulness for Tika to report information about the parsing process via the
Metadata object. There are a few areas where we're already doing this, such as
the "X-ParsedBy" key or a few others that I've added in the RTFParser, the
PDFParser and the RecursiveParserWrapper.
I'm opening this issue for discussion and input from the community.
Proposal 1: We add a prefix String "X-TIKA-" to TikaCoreProperties that parsers
should use as a property prefix when they want to report something about the
parsing process via the Metadata object, e.g.:
X-TIKA-millisToParse
X-TIKA-embeddedDocException
Proposal 2: We start adding specific properties to TikaCoreProperties or maybe
create a TikaMetaMetaProperties class to store these. :)
Do we want to do something like this? Is there a better mechanism?
