------------------------------
Attachment: TIKA-1722.patch
> Tika methods that accept a File needlessly convert it to a URL
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-1722
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1722
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Reporter: Yaniv Kunda
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.11
>
> Attachments: TIKA-1722.patch
>
>
> The following methods:
> - Tika.detect(File)
> - Tika.parse(File)
> - Tika.parseToString(File)
> Convert the given File to a URL and use the corresponding overloaded method
> that accepts a URL.
> This seems like a shortcut, but essentially does the following:
> # Converts the file to a URI
> # Converts the URI to a URL
> # Calls TikaInputStream.get(URL, Metadata), which then performs the following
> special handling:
> # Checks if the protocol is "file"
> # Tries to convert the URL (back) to a URI
> # Creates a File around the URI
> # Checks if file.isFile()
> # Calls TikaInputStream.get(File, Metadata)
> The special handling in TikaInputStream.get(URL/URI) is a good optimization
> for in-the-wild file resources, but for internal uses it can be skipped -
> making Tika call TikaInputStream.get(File, Metadata) directly.
