protected Parser.parse(InputStream stream, Iterable<Content> contents)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: TIKA-31
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-31
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: general
Reporter: Jukka Zitting
Assignee: Jukka Zitting
In order to push towards a stateless Parser interface, I'd like to propose
implementing the current Parser.getContents() method (as it exists after
TIKA-26) in terms of a stateless abstract method with the following signature:
protected abstract String parse(InputStream stream, Iterable<Content>
contents) throws IOException, TikaException;
This method would return the fulltext content of the given stream as the String
return value and place any extra metadata into the given set of Content
instances. With this information the current Parser.getContents() method could
populate a fulltext (and summary) Content entry and any regexp Content entries
universally for any Parser classes. Also, we could centralize state handling
and exception processing to a single class.
