SolrCell takes InputStream

[Bing Hua <bh...@cornell.edu>]

Hi,

While using ContentStreamUpdateRequest up = new
ContentStreamUpdateRequest("/update/extract");

The two ways of adding a file are
up.addFile(File)
up.addContentStream(ContentStream)

However my raw files are stored on some remote storage devices. I am able to
get an InputStream object for the file to be indexed. To me it may seem
awkward to have the file temporarily stored locally. Is there a way of
directly passing the InputStream in (e.g. constructing ContentStream using
the InputStream)?

Thanks.

Sure, go write ahead.

ContentStream is a really simple abstraction designed to make it easy to 
add some common pieces of information to either an InputStream or a 
Reader.  Take a look at ContentStreamBase as a starting point for creating 
your own subclass that can point to whatever InputStream you want.
