JSon

["Chr. Grobmeier" <gr...@possessed.de>]

Hello there,

i was browsing the incubator pages and found Tika.
I like this project, cause i am quite often in the need of parsing and
identifying
strings. However, i wrote some few classes for the representation of
a JSon-Format:
http://code.google.com/p/jjson/

At the moment i am currently implementing some kind of parser,
which transforms the json-string into json-objects.
I was wondering if this classes would fit erfectly in Tika, does it?
If not i will continue with google, otherwise i would like
to implement your parser interface and contribute this to tika.

Best,
Chris

Ok, understood- thanks for clarifying that.

Welcome, and thanks for the interest!

Tika will only transform source documents to text and related
metadata, not objects, so I don't think Tika is a direct match for
this use case.

You might want to check out the Noggit lab at Apache Labs (see [1]).
Noggit is a streaming  JSON parser and serializer for Java, and
there's recently been some talk of perhaps incubating the project as
there seems to be broader interest to it. Contact labs@labs.apache.org
for more details.
