+
+Content Detection
+
+ This page gives you information on how content and language detection
+ works with Apache Tika, and how to tune the behaviour of Tika.
+
+%{toc|section=1|fromDepth=1}
+
+* {The Detector Interface}
+
+ The
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/detect/Detector.html}org.apache.tika.detect.Detector}}
+ interface is the basis for most of the content type detection in Apache
+ Tika. All the different ways of detecting content all implement the
+ same common method:
+
+---
+MediaType detect(java.io.InputStream input,
+ Metadata metadata) throws java.io.IOException
+---
+
+ The <<<detect>>> method takes the stream to inspect, and a
+ <<<Metadata>>> object that holds any additional information on
+ the content. The detector will return a
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/mime/MediaType.html}MediaType}} object describing
+ its best guess as to the type of the file.
+
+ In general, only two keys on the Metadata object are used by Detectors.
+ These are <<<Metadata.RESOURCE_NAME_KEY>>> which should hold the name
+ of the file (where known), and <<<Metadata.CONTENT_TYPE>>> which should
+ hold the advertised content type of the file (eg from a webserver or
+ a content repository).
+
+
+* {Mime Magic Detction}
+
+ By looking for special ("magic") patterns of bytes near the start of
+ the file, it is often possible to detect the type of the file. For
+ some file types, this is a simple process. For others, typically
+ container based formats, the magic detection may not be enough. (More
+ detail on detecting container formats below)
+
+ Tika is able to make use of a a mime magic info file, in the
+ {{{http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info}Freedesktop MIME-info}}
+ format to peform mime magic detection.
+
+ This is provided within Tika by
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/detect/MagicDetector.html}org.apache.tika.detect.MagicDetector}}. It is most commonly access via
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/mime/MimeTypes.html}org.apache.tika.mime.MimeTypes}},
+ normally sourced from the <<<tika-mimetypes.xml>>> file.
+
+
+* {Resource Name Based Detection}
+
+ Where the name of the file is known, it is sometimes possible to guess
+ the file type from the name or extension. Within the
+ <<<tika-mimetypes.xml>>> file is a list of patterns which are used to
+ identify the type from the filename.
+
+ However, because files may be renamed, this method of detection is quick
+ but not always as accurate.
+
+ This is provided within Tika by
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/detect/NameDetector.html}org.apache.tika.detect.NameDetector}}.
+
+
+* {Known Content Type "Detection}
+
+ Sometimes, the mime type for a file is already known, such as when
+ downloading from a webserver, or when retrieving from a content store.
+ This information can be used by detectors, such as
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/mime/MimeTypes.html}org.apache.tika.mime.MimeTypes}},
+
+
+* {The default Mime Types Detector}
+
+ By default, the mime type detection in Tika is provided by
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/mime/MimeTypes.html}org.apache.tika.mime.MimeTypes}}.
+ This detector makes use of <<<tika-mimetypes.xml>>> to power
+ magic based and filename based detection.
+
+ Firstly, magic based detection is used on the start of the file.
+ If the file is an XML file, then the start of the XML is processed
+ to look for root elements. Next, if available, the filename
+ (from <<<Metadata.RESOURCE_NAME_KEY>>>) is
+ then used to improve the detail of the detection, such as when magic
+ detects a text file, and the filename hints it's really a CSV. Finally,
+ if available, the supplied content type (from <<<Metadata.CONTENT_TYPE>>>)
+ is used to further refine the type.
+
+
+* {Container Aware Detection}
+
+ Several common file formats are actually held within a common container
+ format. One example is the PowerPoint .ppt and Word .doc formats, which
+ are both held within an OLE2 container. Another is Apple iWork formats,
+ which are actually a series of XML files within a Zip file.
+
+ Using magic detection, it is easy to spot that a given file is an OLE2
+ document, or a Zip file. Using magic detection alone, it is very difficult
+ (and often impossible) to tell what kind of file lives inside the container.
+
+ For some use cases, speed is important, so having a quick way to know the
+ container type is sufficient. For other cases however, you don't mind
+ spending a bit of time (and memory!) processing the container to get a
+ more accurate answer on its contents. For these cases, a container
+ aware detector should be used.
+
+ Tika provides a wrapping detector in the parsers bundle, of
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/detect/ContainerAwareDetector.html}org.apache.tika.detect.ContainerAwareDetector}}.
+ This detector will check for certain known containers, and if found,
+ will open them and detect the appropriate type based on the contents.
+ If the file isn't a known container, it will fall back to another
+ detector for the answer (most commonly the default
+ <<<MimeTypes>>> detector)
+
+ Because this detector needs to read the whole file to process the
+ container, it must be used with a
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/io/TikaInputStream.html}org.apache.tika.io.TikaInputStream}}.
+ If called with a regular <<<InputStream>>>, then all work will be done
+ by the fallback detector.
+
+ For more information on container formats and Tika, see
+ {{{http://wiki.apache.org/tika/MetadataDiscussion}}}
+
+
+* {Language Detection}
+
+ Tika is able to help identify the language of a piece of text, which
+ is useful when extracting text from document formats which do not include
+ language information in their metadata.
+
+ The language detection is provided by
+ {{{./api/org/apache/tika/language/LanguageIdentifier.html}org.apache.tika.language.LanguageIdentifier}}

+
+Supported Document Formats
+
+ This page lists all the document formats supported by Apache Tika 0.6.
+ Follow the links to the various parser class javadocs for more detailed
+ information about each document format and how it is parsed by Tika.
+
+%{toc|section=1|fromDepth=1}
+
+* {HyperText Markup Language}
+
+ The HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the lingua franca of the web.
+ Tika uses the {{{http://home.ccil.org/~cowan/XML/tagsoup/}TagSoup}}
+ library to support virtually any kind of HTML found on the web.
+ The output from the
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/html/HtmlParser.html}HtmlParser}} class
+ is guaranteed to be well-formed and valid XHTML, and various heuristics
+ are used to prevent things like inline scripts from cluttering the
+ extracted text content.
+
+* {XML and derived formats}
+
+ The Extensible Markup Language (XML) format is a generic format that can
+ be used for all kinds of content. Tika has custom parsers for some widely
+ used XML vocabularies like XHTML, OOXML and ODF, but the default
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/xml/DcXMLParser.html}DcXMLParser}}
+ class simply extracts the text content of the document and ignores any XML
+ structure. The only exception to this rule are Dublin Core metadata
+ elements that are used for the document metadata.
+
+* {Microsoft Office document formats}
+
+ Microsoft Office and some related applications produce documents in the
+ generic OLE 2 Compound Document and Office Open XML (OOXML) formats. The
+ older OLE 2 format was introduced in Microsoft Office version 97 and was
+ the default format until Office version 2007 and the new XML-based
+ OOXML format. The
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/microsoft/OfficeParser.html}OfficeParser}}
+ and
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/microsoft/ooxml/OOXMLParser.html}OOXMLParser}}
+ classes use {{{http://poi.apache.org/}Apache POI}} libraries to support
+ text and metadata extraction from both OLE2 and OOXML documents.
+
+* {OpenDocument Format}
+
+ The OpenDocument format (ODF) is used most notably as the default format
+ of the OpenOffice.org office suite. The
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/odf/OpenDocumentParser.html}OpenDocumentParser}}
+ class supports this format and the earlier OpenOffice 1.0 format on which
+ ODF is based.
+
+* {Portable Document Format}
+
+ The {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/pdf/PDFParser.html}PDFParser}} class
+ parsers Portable Document Format (PDF) documents using the
+ {{{http://pdfbox.apache.org/}Apache PDFBox}} library.
+
+* {Electronic Publication Format}
+
+ The {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/epub/EpubParser.html}EpubParser}} class
+ supports the Electronic Publication Format (EPUB) used for many digital
+ books.
+
+* {Rich Text Format}
+
+ The {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/rtf/RTFParser.html}RTFParser}} class
+ uses the standard javax.swing.text.rtf feature to extract text content
+ from Rich Text Format (RTF) documents.
+
+* {Compression and packaging formats}
+
+ Tika uses the {{{http://commons.apache.org/compress/}Commons Compress}}
+ library to support various compression and packaging formats. The
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/pkg/PackageParser.html}PackageParser}}
+ class and its subclasses first parse the top level compression or
+ packaging format and then pass the unpacked document streams to a
+ second parsing stage using the parser instance specified in the
+ parse context.
+
+* {Text formats}
+
+ Extracting text content from plain text files seems like a simple task
+ until you start thinking of all the possible character encodings. The
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/txt/TXTParser.html}TXTParser}} class uses
+ encoding detection code from the {{{http://site.icu-project.org/}ICU}}
+ project to automatically detect the character encoding of a text document.
+
+* {Audio formats}
+
+ Tika can detect several common audio formats and extract metadata
+ from them. Even text extraction is supported for some audio files that
+ contain lyrics or other textual content. The
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/audio/AudioParser.html}AudioParser}}
+ and {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/audio/MidiParser.html}MidiParser}}
+ classes use standard javax.sound features to process simple audio
+ formats, and the
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/mp3/Mp3Parser.html}Mp3Parser}} class
+ adds support for the widely used MP3 format.
+
+* {Image formats}
+
+ The {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/image/ImageParser.html}ImageParser}}
+ class uses the standard javax.imageio feature to extract simple metadata
+ from image formats supported by the Java platform. More complex image
+ metadata is available through the
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/jpeg/JpegParser.html}JpegParser}} class
+ that uses the metadata-extractor library to supports Exif metadata
+ extraction from Jpeg images.
+
+* {Video formats}
+
+ Currently Tika only supports the Flash video format using a simple
+ parsing algorithm implemented in the
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/flv/FLVParser}FLVParser}} class.
+
+* {Java class files and archives}
+
+ The {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/asm/ClassParser}ClassParser}} class
+ extracts class names and method signatures from Java class files, and
+ the {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/pkg/ZipParser.html}ZipParser}} class
+ supports also jar archives.
+
+* {The mbox format}
+
+ The {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/mbox/MboxParser.html}MboxParser}} can
+ extract email messages from the mbox format used by many email archives
+ and Unix-style mailboxes.

+
+Getting Started with Apache Tika
+
+ This document describes how to build Apache Tika from sources and
+ how to start using Tika in an application.
+
+Getting and building the sources
+
+ To build Tika from sources you first need to either
+ {{{../download.html}download}} a source release or
+ {{{../source-repository.html}checkout}} the latest sources from
+ version control.
+
+ Once you have the sources, you can build them using the
+ {{{http://maven.apache.org/}Maven 2}} build system. Executing the
+ following command in the base directory will build the sources
+ and install the resulting artifacts in your local Maven repository.
+
+---
+mvn install
+---
+
+ See the Maven documentation for more information about the available
+ build options.
+
+ Note that you need Java 5 or higher to build Tika.
+
+Build artifacts
+
+ The Tika 0.10 build consists of a number of components and produces
+ the following main binaries:
+
+ [tika-core/target/tika-core-0.10.jar]
+ Tika core library. Contains the core interfaces and classes of Tika,
+ but none of the parser implementations. Depends only on Java 5.
+
+ [tika-parsers/target/tika-parsers-0.10.jar]
+ Tika parsers. Collection of classes that implement the Tika Parser
+ interface based on various external parser libraries.
+
+ [tika-app/target/tika-app-0.10.jar]
+ Tika application. Combines the above libraries and all the external
+ parser libraries into a single runnable jar with a GUI and a command
+ line interface.
+
+ [tika-bundle/target/tika-bundle-0.10.jar]
+ Tika bundle. An OSGi bundle that includes everything you need to use all
+ Tika functionality in an OSGi environment.
+
+Using Tika as a Maven dependency
+
+ The core library, tika-core, contains the key interfaces and classes of Tika
+ and can be used by itself if you don't need the full set of parsers from
+ the tika-parsers component. The tika-core dependency looks like this:
+
+---
+ <dependency>
+ <groupId>org.apache.tika</groupId>
+ <artifactId>tika-core</artifactId>
+ <version>0.10</version>
+ </dependency>
+---
+
+ If you want to use Tika to parse documents (instead of simply detecting
+ document types, etc.), you'll want to depend on tika-parsers instead:
+
+---
+ <dependency>
+ <groupId>org.apache.tika</groupId>
+ <artifactId>tika-parsers</artifactId>
+ <version>0.10</version>
+ </dependency>
+---
+
+ Note that adding this dependency will introduce a number of
+ transitive dependencies to your project, including one on tika-core.
+ You need to make sure that these dependencies won't conflict with your
+ existing project dependencies. The listing below shows all the
+ compile-scope dependencies of tika-parsers in the Tika 0.10 release.

+
+Using Tika in an Ant project
+
+ Unless you use a dependency manager tool like
+ {{{http://ant.apache.org/ivy/}Apache Ivy}}, to use Tika in you application
+ you can include the Tika jar files and the dependencies individually.
+
+---
+<classpath>
+ ... <!-- your other classpath entries -->
+ <pathelement location="path/to/tika-core-0.10.jar"/>
+ <pathelement location="path/to/tika-parsers-0.10.jar"/>
+ <pathelement location="path/to/commons-logging-1.1.1.jar"/>
+ <pathelement location="path/to/commons-compress-1.0.jar"/>

+ <pathelement location="path/to/log4j-1.2.14.jar"/>
+ <pathelement location="path/to/metadata-extractor-2.4.0-beta-1.jar"/>
+</classpath>
+---
+
+ An easy way to gather all these libraries is to run
+ "mvn dependency:copy-dependencies" in the tika-parsers source directory.
+ This will copy all Tika dependencies to the <<<target/dependencies>>>
+ directory.
+
+ Alternatively you can simply drop the entire tika-app jar to your
+ classpath to get all of the above dependencies in a single archive.
+
+Using Tika as a command line utility
+
+ The Tika application jar (tika-app-0.10.jar) can be used as a command
+ line utility for extracting text content and metadata from all sorts of
+ files. This runnable jar contains all the dependencies it needs, so
+ you don't need to worry about classpath settings to run it.
+
+ The usage instructions are shown below.
+
+---
+usage: java -jar tika-app-0.10.jar [option] [file]
+
+Options:
+ -? or --help Print this usage message
+ -v or --verbose Print debug level messages
+ -g or --gui Start the Apache Tika GUI
+ -x or --xml Output XHTML content (default)
+ -h or --html Output HTML content
+ -t or --text Output plain text content
+ -m or --metadata Output only metadata
+
+Description:
+ Apache Tika will parse the file(s) specified on the
+ command line and output the extracted text content
+ or metadata to standard output.
+
+ Instead of a file name you can also specify the URL
+ of a document to be parsed.
+
+ If no file name or URL is specified (or the special
+ name "-" is used), then the standard input stream
+ is parsed.
+
+ Use the "--gui" (or "-g") option to start
+ the Apache Tika GUI. You can drag and drop files
+ from a normal file explorer to the GUI window to
+ extract text content and metadata from the files.
+---
+
+ You can also use the jar as a component in a Unix pipeline or
+ as an external tool in many scripting languages.
+
+---
+# Check if an Internet resource contains a specific keyword
+curl http://.../document.doc \
+ | java -jar tika-app-0.10.jar --text \
+ | grep -q keyword

+ ({{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-698}TIKA-698}}).
+
+
+ * The RTF parser was rewritten to perform its own direct shallow
+ parse of the RTF content, instead of using RTFEditorKit from
+ javax.swing. This fixes several issues in the old parser,
+ including doubling of Unicode characters in certain cases
+ ({{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-683}TIKA-683}}),
+ exceptions on mal-formed RTF docs
+ ({{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-666}TIKA-666}}), and
+ missing text from some elements (header/footer, hyperlinks,footnotes,
+ text inside pictures).
+
+
+ * Handling of temporary files within Tika was much improved
+ ({{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-701}TIKA-701}},
+ {{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-654}TIKA-654}},
+ {{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-645}TIKA-645}},
+ {{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-153}TIKA-153}}).
+
+ * The Tika GUI got a facelift and some extra features
+ ({{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-635}TIKA-635}}).
+
+
+ * The apache-mime4j dependency of the email message parser was upgraded
+ from version 0.6 to 0.7
+ ({{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-716}TIKA-716}}). The
+ parser also now accepts a MimeConfig object in the ParseContext as
+ configuration ({{{http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-640}TIKA-640}}).

+
+The Parser interface
+
+ The
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/Parser.html}org.apache.tika.parser.Parser}}
+ interface is the key concept of Apache Tika. It hides the complexity of
+ different file formats and parsing libraries while providing a simple and
+ powerful mechanism for client applications to extract structured text
+ content and metadata from all sorts of documents. All this is achieved
+ with a single method:
+
+---
+void parse(
+ InputStream stream, ContentHandler handler, Metadata metadata,
+ ParseContext context) throws IOException, SAXException, TikaException;
+---
+
+ The <<<parse>>> method takes the document to be parsed and related metadata
+ as input and outputs the results as XHTML SAX events and extra metadata.
+ The parse context argument is used to specify context information (like
+ the current local) that is not related to any individual document.
+ The main criteria that lead to this design were:
+
+ [Streamed parsing] The interface should require neither the client
+ application nor the parser implementation to keep the full document
+ content in memory or spooled to disk. This allows even huge documents
+ to be parsed without excessive resource requirements.
+
+ [Structured content] A parser implementation should be able to
+ include structural information (headings, links, etc.) in the extracted
+ content. A client application can use this information for example to
+ better judge the relevance of different parts of the parsed document.
+
+ [Input metadata] A client application should be able to include metadata
+ like the file name or declared content type with the document to be
+ parsed. The parser implementation can use this information to better
+ guide the parsing process.
+
+ [Output metadata] A parser implementation should be able to return
+ document metadata in addition to document content. Many document
+ formats contain metadata like the name of the author that may be useful
+ to client applications.
+
+ [Context sensitivity] While the default settings and behaviour of Tika
+ parsers should work well for most use cases, there are still situations
+ where more fine-grained control over the parsing process is desirable.
+ It should be easy to inject such context-specific information to the
+ parsing process without breaking the layers of abstraction.
+
+ []
+
+ These criteria are reflected in the arguments of the <<<parse>>> method.
+
+* Document input stream
+
+ The first argument is an
+ {{{http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/io/InputStream.html}InputStream}}
+ for reading the document to be parsed.
+
+ If this document stream can not be read, then parsing stops and the thrown
+ {{{http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/io/IOException.html}IOException}}
+ is passed up to the client application. If the stream can be read but
+ not parsed (for example if the document is corrupted), then the parser
+ throws a {{{api/org/apache/tika/exception/TikaException.html}TikaException}}.
+
+ The parser implementation will consume this stream but <will not close it>.
+ Closing the stream is the responsibility of the client application that
+ opened it in the first place. The recommended pattern for using streams
+ with the <<<parse>>> method is:
+
+---
+InputStream stream = ...; // open the stream
+try {
+ parser.parse(stream, ...); // parse the stream
+} finally {
+ stream.close(); // close the stream
+}
+---
+
+ Some document formats like the OLE2 Compound Document Format used by
+ Microsoft Office are best parsed as random access files. In such cases the
+ content of the input stream is automatically spooled to a temporary file
+ that gets removed once parsed. A future version of Tika may make it possible
+ to avoid this extra file if the input document is already a file in the
+ local file system. See
+ {{{https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-153}TIKA-153}} for the status
+ of this feature request.
+
+* XHTML SAX events
+
+ The parsed content of the document stream is returned to the client
+ application as a sequence of XHTML SAX events. XHTML is used to express
+ structured content of the document and SAX events enable streamed
+ processing. Note that the XHTML format is used here only to convey
+ structural information, not to render the documents for browsing!
+
+ The XHTML SAX events produced by the parser implementation are sent to a
+ {{{http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/org/xml/sax/ContentHandler.html}ContentHandler}}
+ instance given to the <<<parse>>> method. If this the content handler
+ fails to process an event, then parsing stops and the thrown
+ {{{http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/org/xml/sax/SAXException.html}SAXException}}
+ is passed up to the client application.
+
+ The overall structure of the generated event stream is (with indenting
+ added for clarity):
+
+---
+<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
+ <head>
+ <title>...</title>
+ </head>
+ <body>
+ ...
+ </body>
+</html>
+---
+
+ Parser implementations typically use the
+ {{{apidocs/org/apache/tika/sax/XHTMLContentHandler.html}XHTMLContentHandler}}
+ utility class to generate the XHTML output.
+
+ Dealing with the raw SAX events can be a bit complex, so Apache Tika
+ comes with a number of utility classes that can be used to process and
+ convert the event stream to other representations.
+
+ For example, the
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/sax/BodyContentHandler.html}BodyContentHandler}}
+ class can be used to extract just the body part of the XHTML output and
+ feed it either as SAX events to another content handler or as characters
+ to an output stream, a writer, or simply a string. The following code
+ snippet parses a document from the standard input stream and outputs the
+ extracted text content to standard output:
+
+---
+ContentHandler handler = new BodyContentHandler(System.out);
+parser.parse(System.in, handler, ...);
+---
+
+ Another useful class is
+ {{{api/org/apache/tika/parser/ParsingReader.html}ParsingReader}} that
+ uses a background thread to parse the document and returns the extracted
+ text content as a character stream:
+
+---
+InputStream stream = ...; // the document to be parsed
+Reader reader = new ParsingReader(parser, stream, ...);
+try {
+ ...; // read the document text using the reader
+} finally {
+ reader.close(); // the document stream is closed automatically
+}
+---
+
+* Document metadata
+
+ The third argument to the <<<parse>>> method is used to pass document
+ metadata both in and out of the parser. Document metadata is expressed
+ as an {{{api/org/apache/tika/metadata/Metadata.html}Metadata}} object.
+
+ The following are some of the more interesting metadata properties:
+
+ [Metadata.RESOURCE_NAME_KEY] The name of the file or resource that contains
+ the document.
+
+ A client application can set this property to allow the parser to use
+ file name heuristics to determine the format of the document.
+
+ The parser implementation may set this property if the file format
+ contains the canonical name of the file (for example the Gzip format
+ has a slot for the file name).
+
+ [Metadata.CONTENT_TYPE] The declared content type of the document.
+
+ A client application can set this property based on for example a HTTP
+ Content-Type header. The declared content type may help the parser to
+ correctly interpret the document.
+
+ The parser implementation sets this property to the content type according
+ to which the document was parsed.
+
+ [Metadata.TITLE] The title of the document.
+
+ The parser implementation sets this property if the document format
+ contains an explicit title field.
+
+ [Metadata.AUTHOR] The name of the author of the document.
+
+ The parser implementation sets this property if the document format
+ contains an explicit author field.
+
+ []
+
+ Note that metadata handling is still being discussed by the Tika development
+ team, and it is likely that there will be some (backwards incompatible)
+ changes in metadata handling before Tika 1.0.
+
+* Parse context
+
+ The final argument to the <<<parse>>> method is used to inject
+ context-specific information to the parsing process. This is useful
+ for example when dealing with locale-specific date and number formats
+ in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. Another important use of the parse
+ context is passing in the delegate parser instance to be used by
+ two-phase parsers like the
+ {{{api/org/apache/parser/pkg/PackageParser.html}PackageParser}} subclasses.
+ Some parser classes allow customization of the parsing process through
+ strategy objects in the parse context.
+
+* Parser implementations
+
+ Apache Tika comes with a number of parser classes for parsing
+ {{{formats.html}various document formats}}. You can also extend Tika
+ with your own parsers, and of course any contributions to Tika are
+ warmly welcome.
+
+ The goal of Tika is to reuse existing parser libraries like
+ {{{http://www.pdfbox.org/}PDFBox}} or
+ {{{http://poi.apache.org/}Apache POI}} as much as possible, and so most
+ of the parser classes in Tika are adapters to such external libraries.
+
+ Tika also contains some general purpose parser implementations that are
+ not targeted at any specific document formats. The most notable of these
+ is the {{{apidocs/org/apache/tika/parser/AutoDetectParser.html}AutoDetectParser}}
+ class that encapsulates all Tika functionality into a single parser that
+ can handle any types of documents. This parser will automatically determine
+ the type of the incoming document based on various heuristics and will then
+ parse the document accordingly.

+
+Get Tika parsing up and running in 5 minutes
+
+ This page is a quick start guide showing how to add a new parser to Apache Tika.
+ Following the simple steps listed below your new parser can be running in only 5 minutes.
+
+%{toc|section=1|fromDepth=1}
+
+* {Getting Started}
+
+ The {{{gettingstarted.html}Getting Started}} document describes how to
+ build Apache Tika from sources and how to start using Tika in an application. Pay close attention
+ and follow the instructions in the "Getting and building the sources" section.
+
+
+* {Add your MIME-Type}
+
+ You first need to modify {{{http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tika/trunk/tika-core/src/main/resources/org/apache/tika/mime/tika-mimetypes.xml}tika-core/src/main/resources/org/apache/tika/mime/tika-mimetypes.xml}}
+ in order to Tika can map the file extension with its MIME-Type. You should add something like this:
+
+---
+ <mime-type type="application/hello">
+ <glob pattern="*.hi"/>
+ </mime-type>
+---
+
+* {Create your Parser class}
+
+ Now, you need to create your new parser. This is a class that must implement the Parser interface
+ offered by Tika. A very simple Tika Parser looks like this:

+
+* {List the new parser}
+
+ Finally, you should explicitly tell the AutoDetectParser to include your new
+ parser. This step is only needed if you want to use the AutoDetectParser functionality.
