[jira] [Created] (TIKA-1497) tika-server cannot output JSON

Peter Bowyer created TIKA-1497:
----------------------------------

             Summary: tika-server cannot output JSON
                 Key: TIKA-1497
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1497
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: server
            Reporter: Peter Bowyer


I would like the response from 
curl -X PUT -T /path/to/file.pdf http://localhost:9998/meta
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."
