[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-2248) How to set up the content encoding

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2248?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15834585#comment-15834585 ] 

Tim Allison commented on TIKA-2248:
-----------------------------------

I don't think this is currently configurable via the tika-config file.

The current mechanism is driven by the service loading file in tika-parsers/src/main/resources/META-INF/services/o.a.t.detect.EncodingDetector.  That specifies which detectors to run in what order.  The first detector to return a non-null value is what Tika uses.

So, one option for now is to write your own EncodingDetector that returns whatever encoding you want, perhaps driven by a value submitted via metadata, and register that in the services file.

> String parsedString = tika.parseToString(inputStream, metadata);
> metadata CONTENT_ENCODING is ignored;
> How I can force Tika to use CONTENT_ENCODING setted in metadata?
