Lorenz Leutgeb commented on TIKA-1630:
--------------------------------------
Oh! I did not read the note because I went for CTRL+F after skimming over the
first paragraph. My suggestion now would be bold font for "please note", a box
around it, or some other means to really make me notice what it says. On top of
that, a reference to the list of mimetypes (as that's what I was looking for)
would be great.
In retrospect I see that the formats page makes sense and also has some sort of
disclaimer, but still for a user landing there from a web search and not
involved in the project might have troubles understanding it in a
straightforward manner.
> Mention APK support in List of Supported Formats
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-1630
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1630
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation
> Affects Versions: 1.8
> Reporter: Lorenz Leutgeb
> Priority: Trivial
>
> http://tika.apache.org/1.8/formats.html claims to offer a "full list of
> supported formats" does not mention support for APK files at all.
> I trusted that source and only found that tike supports APK files and their
> respective MIME types from looking at Tikas codebase, which is suboptimal.
> Please add APK files to that list as appropriate (at least include the MIME
> type Tika understands).
> Consider reevaluating the list to find out whether other formats are missing
> (this is not covered by this ticket).
