DcXMLParser: DC metadata text in extracted body
-----------------------------------------------
Key: TIKA-579
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-579
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Bug
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 0.8
Environment: N/A
Reporter: Scott Severtson
The DcXMLParser correctly extracts Dublin Core metadata text into the Metadata
object, but the metadata text is included in the extracted "body".
Sample XML document:
---
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/";>
<dc:title>This is the title</dc:title>
<dc:creator>Scott Severtson</dc:creator>
<dc:subject>This is the subject</dc:subject>
<b>This is the body text.</b>
</a>
---
Sample code:
---
URL xmlDocument = ...
TikaConfig tikaConfig = new TikaConfig();
ParseUtils.getStringContent(xmlDocument, tikaConfig, "application/xml");
---
Actual output:
---
This is the title

This is the body text.

Expected output:
---
This is the body text.
---
The output is consistent when using ParseUtils *and* when using DcXMLParser
directly with a ContentHandler. The ContentHandler receives a single text node
containing concatinated metadata and body text, so there is no opportunity to
externally work around this issue. We would expect DcXMLParser to remove DC
nodes from the body prior to extracting the body text, to be more consistent
with other Tika parsers.
