Tim Allison commented on TIKA-2972:
-----------------------------------
Thank you, [~nick]. Y, agreed...
bq. I guess we'd provide a method on `TikaConfig` to get all the factories as
a minimum? Possibly also one that takes a name that returns a factory, not sure
if that should have an implicit default or take an explicit default or return
null or throw exception on an invalid name?
Y, that's what I was thinking.

> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Tim Allison
> Priority: Major
>
> 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}}-
> That's not right because we'd want to differentiate classic Tika parsing and
> the RecursiveParserWrapper...
> {{curl... http://localhost:9998/tika/myhandler1}}
> {{curl... http://localhost:9998/tika/myhandler2}}
> {{curl... http://localhost:9998/rmeta/myhandler1}}
> {{curl... http://localhost:9998/rmeta/myhandler2}}
> or in tika-app:
> {{java -jar tika-app.jar --handlerFactory=myhandler1...}}
> WDYT?
