Nick Burch commented on TIKA-509:
---------------------------------
Support is now in place for .doc, .docx, .xls and .xlsx
There's a couple more office formats to support, and unit tests are needed for
the general container formats which are supported via the PackageExtractor
> Container contents extraction

> Key: TIKA-509
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-509
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 0.7
> Reporter: Nick Burch
> Assignee: Nick Burch
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: 0001-TIKA-509-Container-contents-extraction.patch
>
>
> As discussed on the mailing list:
> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tika-dev/201009.mbox/%3calpine.deb.1.10.1009010000250.5...@urchin.earth.li%3e
> This service will operate in a push mode, using streaming where possible (not
> all container formats will support that). Users can control recursion, and
> will be given the chance to process each embeded file in turn. It's up to
> them if they process a file or skip it.
> It will work similar to the current Parser code, with each container having
> its own extractor in the parsers package, and the interface defined in the
> core package. There will be an Auto extractor in the core package, configured
> with a list of parser extractors just like AutoDetectParser does.
