Manolo Caracuel created TIKA-2542:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Support in tika-server for getting plain text and metadata at the same time
                 Key: TIKA-2542
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2542
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core, server
    Affects Versions: 1.17
            Reporter: Manolo Caracuel
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.18


It would be good to have a way to get a files plain text extracted and also get the metadata detected. Currently you can only get the metadata if the request has Accepts of text/xml or text/html but then the text in the body is not the plain text as it contains html elements as well.

I propose that when requesting /tika/plain with Accepts header of text/xml, an xhtml document is returned with the metadata in head's meta elements and the plain text in the body.
