--------------------------------------
GerardBouchar opened a new pull request #238: TIKA-2100 extract content
language from html lang attribute
URL: https://github.com/apache/tika/pull/238
The [recommended
way](https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-html-language-declarations)
of declaring the language of an HTML document is to specify it in the `lang`
attribute of the `<html>` tag.
Tika currently not only ignores this attribute, but also removes it from its
SAX output, making it unavailable to client applications.
This PR adds the value of the lang attribute to the documents metadata
(under the existing key `Metadata.CONTENT_LANGUAGE`) and also makes it
available in the SAX output.

> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-2100
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2100
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.13
> Reporter: Gerard Bouchar
> Priority: Major
>
> Parsing a very simple html like
> <!DOCTYPE html>
> <html lang="en">
> <head>
> <title>Page Title</title>
> </head>
> <body>
> <h1 align="left">My First Heading</h1>
> <p>My first paragraph.</p>
> </body>
> </html>
> you won't be able to access the html tag's attributes (here lang="en") in the
> ContentHandler :
> *in the method startElement(String ns, String localName, String name,
> Attributes atts), atts is empty.
> *Moreover it seems that the html tag's attributes are not passed trough the
> HtmlMapper.mapSafeAttribute method too.
