Hi Magnus:
Another direction you may want to look into is the mediafilter curation work:
https://github.com/richardrodgers/ctask
This approach uses the Apache Tika text extraction library, which I am fairly
certain supports reading zip files.
The extracted text can then be indexed by normal DSpace processes.
If you have a 1.8 DSpace, you may wish to evaluate it.
Thanks,
Richard R

Magnus,
Currently, DSpace does not support indexing within Zip Files. So, they
are not searchable by default.
However, it may be possible to build a custom "indexer" (DSpace calls
them MediaFilters) that can extract the contents of a Zip file. This
would take some Java programming, but if you decided to build one it may
be something we could include in a future version of DSpace.
More information on MediaFilters and how to create custom MediaFilters
can be found in the DSpace Documentation at:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC18/Transforming+DSpace+Content+%28MediaFilters%29
If you decide to try and build a MediaFilter that can extract & index
Zip files, you are more than welcome to discuss your ideas on this
listserv and submit your final code to our Ticket System

Does anyone know if DSpace can index and/or make zip files searchable
after ingesting them into the repository?
