Method Detail

parse

public void parse(InputStream stream,
                  ContentHandler handler,
                  Metadata metadata,
                  ParseContext context)

                  SAXException,
                  TikaException

Description copied from interface: Parser

Parses a document stream into a sequence of XHTML SAX events. Fills in related document metadata in the given metadata object.

The given document stream is consumed but not closed by this method. The responsibility to close the stream remains on the caller.

Information about the parsing context can be passed in the context parameter. See the parser implementations for the kinds of context information they expect.

Specified by:

parse in interface Parser

Parameters:

stream - the document stream (input)

handler - handler for the XHTML SAX events (output)

metadata - document metadata (input and output)

context - parse context

Throws:

IOException - if the document stream could not be read

SAXException - if the SAX events could not be processed

TikaException - if the document could not be parsed

parse

public void parse(InputStream stream,
                  ContentHandler handler,
                  Metadata metadata)
           throws IOException,
                  SAXException,
                  TikaException

Deprecated. This method will be removed in Apache Tika 1.0.

Description copied from interface: Parser

The parse() method from Tika 0.4 and earlier. Please use the #parse(InputStream, ContentHandler, Metadata, Map) method instead in new code. Calls to this backwards compatibility method are forwarded to the new parse() method with an empty parse context.

Specified by:

parse in interface Parser

Throws:

IOException

SAXException

TikaException

getContentHandler

protected ContentHandler getContentHandler(ContentHandler handler,
                                           Metadata metadata)
