@joewitt On [NIFI-1717|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1717] and
[NIFI-1718|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1718] Dmitry Goldenberg
and I discussed using Tika to extract content (OCR) documents and images.
@markap14 also suggested removing the filters.
I don't know where the OCR changes stand, those tickets have been quiet for
a couple of weeks. I think that's a tougher capability to test, and as pointed
out on [NIFI-1717|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1717] and
[NIFI-1718|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1718] it is an expensive
process that may need special consideration.
As for the filters, I like having them in the processor, especially since
this one includes filename and mimetype filters. If consensus is to remove
them, I can update the PR for that, but I think they are affective for this
purpose as it currently is.
I don't think we should hold this for the OCR, but if you want the filters
removed let me know. It'd be nice to get the metadata functionality in.
