Tim Allison updated TIKA-1497:
------------------------------
    Attachment: TIKA-1497.patch

[~sergey_beryozkin], how does this look? 

Would we be able to factor out the custom CSV code (by relying on the CSVMessageBodyWriter)  if we changed the return type from StreamingOutput to Response?

> I would like the response from

> to be JSON and not CSV?.
> I've discovered JSONMessageBodyWriter.java (https://github.com/apache/tika/blob/af19f3ea04792cad81b428f1df9f5ebbb2501913/tika-server/src/main/java/org/apache/tika/server/JSONMessageBodyWriter.java) so I think the functionality is present, tried adding --header "Accept: application/json" to the cURL call, in line with the documentation for outputting CSV, but no luck so far.
> According to [~sergey_beryozkin]
> "I see MetadataResource returning StreamingOutput and it has @Produces(text/csv) only. As such this MBW has no effect at the moment.
> We can update MetadataResource to return Metadata directly if application/json is requested or update MetadataResource to directly convert Metadata to JSON in case of JSON being accepted."
