Julien Nioche commented on TIKA-1599: ------------------------------------- FWIW we've just added a JSoup based parser to storm-crawler[https://github.com/DigitalPebble/storm-crawler] as the HTML parsing in Tika normalizes/filters the original content far too much. > Switch from TagSoup to JSoup > ---------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-1599 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1599 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: parser > Affects Versions: 1.7, 1.8 > Reporter: Ken Krugler > Assignee: Ken Krugler > Priority: Minor > > There are several Tika issues related to how TagSoup cleans up HTML > ([TIKA-381], [TIKA-985], maybe [TIKA-715]), but TagSoup doesn't seem to be > under active development. > On the other hand I know of several projects that are now using > [JSoup|https://github.com/jhy/jsoup], which is an active project (albeit only > one main contributor) under the MIT license. > I haven't looked into how hard it would be to switch this dependency. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
