[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-605) Tika GDAL parser

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-605?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13114338#comment-13114338 ] 

Chris A. Mattmann commented on TIKA-605:
----------------------------------------

The other tricky thing about this is that GDAL seems to have its own MIME identification system, that is based on file name, or glob pattern. So, when I used TikaInputStream.getFile() which returns a temp file name as well, GDAL was complaining that it didn't understand that file type. I think I specifically request a file extension for the temp file to get, or if I can't, then I'll update TikaInputStream.getFile() to allow this.

> Leverage the GDAL toolkit and its Java SWIG bindings to create a Tika parser around GDAL. See here: http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/swig/java/apps/gdalinfo.java
