---------------------------------
Summary: Allow users to specify a ContentHandlerFactory in
tika-config.xml
Key: TIKA-2972
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2972
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Tim Allison
I'd like to add a tika-eval handler that will calculate text stats at the end
of parsing a document so that the user can get a unified/simpler view of
number of tokens/ out of vocabulary, etc. in the metadata rather than having to
run their own post-parse process on the content.
The problem comes with integrating this into tika-app and tika-server --
tika-app balloons to 134MB. I don't want to nearly double the size of tika-app
just so that I can add some stuff that very few folks will use.
I think we've discussed this option before, but it would be handy to allow
users to specify a ContentHandlerFactory or possibly a map of
ContentHandlerFactories in tika-config.xml so that users can get custom
handling in tika-app and tika-server.
The idea of a map of ContentHandlerFactories, would be to have a name for each
content handler factory, and a user could call different handlers on
tika-server like this:
`curl... http://localhost:9998/tika/custom/myhandler1`
`curl... http://localhost:9998/tika/custom/myhandler2`
or in tika-app:
`java -jar tika-app.jar --handlerFactory=myhandler1...`
WDYT?
