-------------------------------------
Summary: Create tika-server Frontend
Key: TIKA-1545
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1545
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: server
Reporter: Tyler Palsulich
Assignee: Tyler Palsulich
Fix For: 1.8
The current server homepage only displays a list of available endpoints. I
propose a front end which will allow a user to upload a file, select a dropdown
of output format, check boxes of metadata/content, click submit, and view
Tika's output.
This will be a nice feature to have along with TIKA-1301. When a potential user
asks what Tika does for [filetype], we can direct them to the VM so they can
try it out.
I'll upload a patch with a new endpoint which accepts a multipart/form-data
input file. But, it's ugly... I'd prefer to make the call with Ajax. But, I
don't know how to that with the current tika-server setup.
A more complex, but pretty, example of something Tika should have is
http://any23.org/.
Thoughts?
