Tim Allison commented on TIKA-1508:
-----------------------------------
TIKA-1508 emerged from a conversation started on TIKA-1445.
> Add uniformity to parser parameter configuration
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-1508
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1508
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Tim Allison
> Fix For: 1.8
>
>
> We can currently configure parsers by the following means:
> 1) programmatically by direct calls to the parsers or their config objects
> 2) sending in a config object through the ParseContext
> 3) modifying .properties files for specific parsers (e.g. PDFParser)
> Rather than scattering the landscape with .properties files for each parser,
> it would be great if we could specify parser parameters in the main config
> file, something along the lines of this:
> {noformat}
> <parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.audio.AudioParser">
> <params>
> <int name="someparam1">2</int>
> <str name="someOtherParam2">something or other</str>
> </params>
> <mime>audio/basic</mime>
> <mime>audio/x-aiff</mime>
> <mime>audio/x-wav</mime>
> </parser>
> {noformat}
