Package org.apache.tika.metadata.filter

Class DateNormalizingMetadataFilter

java.lang.Object

org.apache.tika.config.ConfigBase

org.apache.tika.metadata.filter.MetadataFilter

org.apache.tika.metadata.filter.DateNormalizingMetadataFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class DateNormalizingMetadataFilter
extends MetadataFilter

Some dates in some file formats do not have a timezone. Tika correctly stores these without a timezone, e.g. 'yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss' This can be a problem if end points expect a 'Z' timezone. This filter makes the assumption that dates without timezones are UTC and always modifies the date to: "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'" Users can specify an alternate defaultTimeZone with setDefaultTimeZone(String) to apply if the file format does not specify a timezone.
