[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=14572108#comment-14572108 ] 

Alexandre Rafalovitch commented on SOLR-7632:
---------------------------------------------

I think it would make sense to first test this as a separate handler for those who want it. Tika is used in multiple places anyway (DIH), so you can't just rip it out for multiple reasons.

But having Tika-Server as an option in a separate handler would be nice.

P.s. "Fixed in 5.0.1" does not look right. This is not done yet and we are already locked down for 5.2.

> 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.
