I’d like to see the discriminators on the parsers be more about the type of
parser, and what it’s going to drag along/impact my system with, and these
names reflect more the history of Tika’s evolution.
Starting with the descriptive paragraphs, here is some brainstorming of names:
with the exception of optional OCR, these
should be lightish weight dependencies in pure java with no
parsers/resources that require network calls.
—tika-parsers-files
—tika-parsers-alljava
—tika-parsers-local
—tika-parsers-simple
—tika-parsers-lightweight
—tika-parsers-aluminum
these can require native libs and/or have
heavier dependencies, including network calls.
—tika-parsers-heavy
—tika-parsers-complex
—tika-parsers-extended-dependencies
—tika-parsers-iron
anything goes. dl4j as a dependency, etc.
—tika-parsers-anything-goes
—tika-parsers-sandbox
—tika-parsers-deep
—tika-parsers-model-driven
—tika-parsers-lead
