Constructor Detail

AutoDetectParser

public AutoDetectParser()

Creates an auto-detecting parser instance using the default Tika configuration.

AutoDetectParser

public AutoDetectParser(Detector detector)

AutoDetectParser

public AutoDetectParser(Parser... parsers)

Creates an auto-detecting parser instance using the specified set of parser. This allows one to create a Tika configuration where only a subset of the available parsers have their 3rd party jars included, as otherwise the use of the default TikaConfig will throw various "ClassNotFound" exceptions.

Parameters:

parsers -

AutoDetectParser

public AutoDetectParser(Detector detector,
                        Parser... parsers)

AutoDetectParser

public AutoDetectParser(TikaConfig config)

Method Detail

getDetector

public Detector getDetector()

Returns the type detector used by this parser to auto-detect the type of a document.

Returns:

type detector

Since:

Apache Tika 0.4

setDetector

public void setDetector(Detector detector)

Sets the type detector used by this parser to auto-detect the type of a document.

Parameters:

detector - type detector

Since:

Apache Tika 0.4

parse

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

Description copied from class: CompositeParser

Delegates the call to the matching component parser.

Potential RuntimeExceptions, IOExceptions and SAXExceptions unrelated to the given input stream and content handler are automatically wrapped into TikaExceptions to better honor the Parser contract.

Specified by:

parse in interface Parser

Overrides:

parse in class CompositeParser

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

Description copied from class: AbstractParser

Calls the Parser.parse(InputStream, ContentHandler, Metadata, ParseContext) method with an empty ParseContext. This method exists as a leftover from Tika 0.x when the three-argument parse() method still existed in the Parser interface. No new code should call this method anymore, it's only here for backwards compatibility.

Overrides:

parse in class AbstractParser

Throws:

IOException

SAXException

TikaException
