             Summary: Remove the ForkParser in 4.x
                 Key: TIKA-4554
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-4554
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Tim Allison


In 3.x, we had four different ways to fork a process to handle dangerous files:

a) tika-batch

b) tika-server 

c) tika-pipes

d) fork parser

 

For 4.x, we should centralize/unify our forking through tika-pipes if possible. 

We've already removed tika-batch on TIKA-4333. We removed the full server 
forking as part of the enormous refactoring on TIKA-4545.

Let's remove the ForkParser from 4.x. I propose that if anyone needs it, we can 
write a light wrapper around tika-pipes that would take an InputStream, write 
it to a temp file and then run tika-pipes against the file.

 

Any objections?
