Oh ok.  I didn’t realize I needed to write my own class to implement it. I  was 
looking for some sort of existing framework.

What is the purpose of the 2 InputStreamFactory classes:

I was re-reading some emails with Nick Burch back around Dec 22-23 and maybe I 
mis-understood him, but it sounds like he was saying that TiksInputStream was 
smart enough to automatically spool the stream to disk to allow re-use.

It seems to me that I need an extra pass through the data in order to save to 
disk.  I’m not starting from a File, but from a stream.  So if I need to read 
the stream twice, I really have to pass through the data 3 times, correct?
Unless there is a way to save to disk during the first pass

(try/catch removed for simplicity)

tis = TikaInputSream.get(InputStream);
file = tis.getFile();   <== extra pass
tis =  TikaInputStream.get(new MyInputStreamFactory(file));
// first real pass
InputStream is = tis.getInputStreamFactory().getInputStream()
// second real pass
}

Something like:

class MyInputStreamFactory implements InputStreamFactory{

    private File file;

    public  MyInputStreamFactory(File file){
        this.file = file;
    }

    public InputStream getInputStream(){
        return new FileInputStream(file);
    }
}

in your client code:

Parser parser = new AutoDetectParser();
TikaInputStream tis =  TikaInputStream.get(new MyInputStreamFactory(file));
parser.parse(tis, new ToTextContentHandler(), new Metadata(), new 
ParseContext());

when you need to reuse the stream (into your parser):

public void parse(InputStream stream, ContentHandler handler, Metadata 
metadata, ParseContext context)
            throws IOException, SAXException, TikaException {
   //(...)
   TikaInputStream tis = TikaInputStream.get(stream);
   if(tis.hasInputStreamFactory()){
        try(InputStream is = tis.getInputStreamFactory().getInputStream()){
              //consume the new stream
        }
   }else
       throw new IOException("not a reusable inputStream");
 }

Of course this is useful if you are not processing files, e.g. reading files 
from the cloud or sockets.

There appear to be 2 InputStreamFactory classes: in tika-server-core and 
tika-io.  The one in server.core is the only one with a concrete class.
I’m not quite sure I see how to use this.
Normally, I create a TikaInputStream with TikaInputStream.get(InputStream).  
How do I create it from an InputStreamFactory?
TikaInputStream.getInputStreamFactory() only returns a factory if the 
TikaInputStream was created from a factory.
Is there a good example of how this is used

Thanks.  I thought that TikaInputStream already automatically saved to disk to 
allow re-reading.

You could call TikaInputStream.getPath() at the beginning of your parser, it 
will spool to file if not file based. After consuming the original inputStream, 
create a new one from the temp file created.

If you are using 2.0.0-ALPHA, there is:

https://github.com/apache/tika/blob/main/tika-core/src/main/java/org/apache/tika/io/InputStreamFactory.java

Use with the new methods from TikaInputStream:
public static TikaInputStream get(InputStreamFactory factory)
public InputStreamFactory getInputStreamFactory()

Hope this helps,
Luis

If I finish parsing a TikaStream, can I re-use the stream (before it is 
closed)?  I know you said that there is some magic behind the scenes where it 
spools it to a file.  Can I just call reset() to start from the beginning?
