[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-7632) Change the ExtractingRequestHandler to use Tika-Server

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7632?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16993649#comment-16993649 ] 

Tim Allison commented on SOLR-7632:
-----------------------------------

All, what's the current thinking on this?

Is there a model for plugins I can follow?  How do we test with external dependencies (e.g. a running tika-server)?

How far do we want to extricate Tika from Solr?  The farther the better, IMHO. :D

> It's a pain to upgrade Tika's jars all the times when we release, and if Tika fails it messes up the ExtractingRequestHandler (e.g., the document type caused Tika to fail, etc). A more reliable way and also separated, and easier to deploy version of the ExtractingRequestHandler would make a network call to the Tika JAXRS server, and then call Tika on the Solr server side, get the results and then index the information that way. I have a patch in the works from the DARPA Memex project and I hope to post it soon.
