DocumentReaderService provides API to retrieve DocumentReader by mimetype.
DocumentReader lets the user fetch content of document as String or, in case of TikaDocumentReader, as Reader.
Basicaly, DocumentReaderService is a container for all registered DocumentReaders. So, you can register DocumentReader (method addDocumentReader(ComponentPlugin reader)) and fetch DocumentReader by mimeType (method getDocumentReader(String mimeType)).
TikaDocumentReaderServiceImpl extends DocumentReaderService with simple goal - read Tika configuration and lazy register each Tika Parser as TikaDocumentReader.
By default, all Tikas Parsers are not registered in readers <mimetype, DocumentReader> map. When user tries to fetch a DocumentReader by unknown mimetype. Than TikaDocumentReaderService checks tika configuration, and register a new mimetype-DocumentReader pair.
How TikaDocumentReaderService Impl configuration looks like:

</properties>As you see configuration above, there is both old-style DocumentReaders and new Tika parsers registered.
But MSWordDocumentReader and org.apache.tika.parser.microsoft.OfficeParser both refer to same "application/msword" mimetype, exclaims attentive reader. And he is right. But only one DocumentReader will be fetched.
Old-style DocumentReader registered in configuration become registered into DocumentReaderService. So, mimetypes that is supported by those DocumentReaders will have a registered pair, and user will always fetch this DocumentReaders with getDocumentReader(..) method. Tika configuration will be checked for Parsers only if there is no already registered DocumentReader.
You can make you own DocumentReader in two ways.
Old-Style Document Reader:
extend BaseDocumentReader
public class MyDocumentReader extends BaseDocumentReader
{
public String[] getMimeTypes()
{
return new String[]{"mymimetype"};
}
...
}register it as component-plugin
<component-plugin> <name>my.DocumentReader</name> <set-method>addDocumentReader</set-method> <type>com.mycompany.document.MyDocumentReader</type> <description>to read my own file format</description> </component-plugin>
Tika Parser:
implement Parser
public class MyParser implements Parser
{
...
}register it in tika-config.xml
<parser name="parse-mydocument" class="com.mycompany.document.MyParser">
<mime>mymimetype</mime>
</parser>TikaDocumentReader features and notes:
TikaDocumentReader may return document contant as Reader object. Old-Style DocumentReader does not;
TikaDocumentReader do not detects document mimetipe. You will get exact parser as configured in tika-config;
All readers methods closes InputStream at final.
