---------------------------------

             Summary: Consider adding alternative to fat jar artifacts
                 Key: TIKA-4143
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-4143
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Tim Allison


With jpms, it feels like shading is not a great option.  

I'm not proposing getting rid of fat jars in 3.x.  I'm only proposing offering 
thin-jar options in addition to our usual shaded fat jars.

I'm opening this ticket to discuss options for packaging tika-app, tika-server 
and possibly other components in non-fat jars.

For app and server, we could put dependencies in the lib/ directory next to the 
main jar and add "lib" to the classpath of the main jar?  Then zip the main jar 
and lib directory for distribution?

Other recommendations?
