---------------------------------
Lewis - I don't have the karma to assign it to you, I think someone else needs
to put you in a magic JIRA group first. That said, I think the field is
wide-open for you to tackle this!
> Add webapp mode for Tika Server, simplifies deployment
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-894
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-894
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: packaging
> Affects Versions: 1.1, 1.2
> Reporter: Chris Wilson
> Labels: maven, newbie, patch
> Attachments: tika-server-webapp.patch
>
>
> For use in production services, Tika Server should really be deployed as a
> WAR file, under a reliable servlet container that knows how to run as a
> system service, for example Tomcat or JBoss.
> This is especially important on Windows, where I wasted an entire day trying
> to make TikaServerCli run as some kind of a service.
> Maven makes building a webapp pretty trivial. With the attached patch
> applied, "mvn war:war" should work. It seems to run fine in Tomcat, which
> makes Windows deployment much simpler. Just install Tomcat and drop the WAR
> file into tomcat's webapps directory and you're away.
