go-tika is a Go client library and command line utility for accessing the Apache Tika Server API.
go-tika requires Go version 1.8 or greater.
See the godoc for more documentation on what resources are available.
The tika binary allows you to access the Apache Tika Server API from the command line, including downloading and starting the server in the background.
To get the binary, run:
go get -u github.com/google/go-tika/cmd/tikaTo download the Apache Tika 1.14 Server, check the MD5 sum, start the server in the background, and parse a file, run:
$GOPATH/bin/tika -filename /path/to/file/to/parse -download_version 1.14 parseThis will store tika-server-1.14.jar in your current working directory. If you want to control the output location of the JAR, add a -server_jar /path/to/save/tika-server.jar argument.
If you already have a downloaded Apache Tika Server JAR, you can specify it with the -server_jar flag and it will not be re-downloaded.
If you already have a running Apache Tika Server, you can use it by adding the -server_url flag and omitting the -server_jar and -download_version flags.
See $GOPATH/bin/tika -h for usage instructions.
