File Parsers

File parsers extract text from various file types and provide it as a Reader to the FullTextBridge for use during search indexing. Plain text formats can use the default fileParser bean, but any specialized format, such as PDF or RTF requires special libraries and special registration.

Configuration

Currently, configuration takes places solely in source:trunk/components/server/resources/ome/services/service-ome.api.Search.xml . Eventually, it should be able to replace file parsers at configuration or even runtime.

Available parsers

File type Parser
application/pdf  http://pdfbox.org
text/xml (internal)
