User supplied parsers should be preferred
-----------------------------------------
Key: TIKA-841
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-841
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: parser
Affects Versions: 1.0
Reporter: Nick Burch
Currently, user supplied Detectors are preferred over built in ones, via logic
in DefaultDetector. This allows users to easily add their own detectors which
are used in preference, as well as making it easy to override the built in ones.
However, there is no such logic for Parsers. Instead, the last parser in the
DefaultParser / CompositeParser list for a given mimetype will be used (the map
only holds one entry, so last in wins). This makes it hard for users to
override the parser for a type that the builtin parsers support, as it isn't
predictable where in the list parsers will go
