Lewis John McGibbney commented on TIKA-894:
-------------------------------------------
I have a half baked patch locally for webapp and WAR support similar to what we
have over on Any23.
I'll try my best to hammer this soon folks. Sorry about the ridiculous wait. God
> Add webapp mode for Tika Server, simplifies deployment
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-894
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-894
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: packaging
> Affects Versions: 1.1, 1.2
> Reporter: Chris Wilson
> Labels: maven, newbie, patch
> Fix For: 1.8
>
> Attachments: tika-server-webapp.patch
>
>
> For use in production services, Tika Server should really be deployed as a
> WAR file, under a reliable servlet container that knows how to run as a
> system service, for example Tomcat or JBoss.
> This is especially important on Windows, where I wasted an entire day trying
> to make TikaServerCli run as some kind of a service.
> Maven makes building a webapp pretty trivial. With the attached patch
> applied, "mvn war:war" should work. It seems to run fine in Tomcat, which
> makes Windows deployment much simpler. Just install Tomcat and drop the WAR
> file into tomcat's webapps directory and you're away.
