Upgrade to Tika 2.6.0

tballison opened this issue · comments

Does this library need updates to support 2.5 or is this just for updating the default value in tika.py?

I stumbled on this while looking at some other Tika related updates

This is something we've raised before in another issue (#359), but there hasn't been an update to this repo in over a year. I'm not sure if the fixes exist in an existing pull request or if creating a pull request would even be addressed. I'm starting to think this project might be dead, at least in its current form.

I was recently given access to this repo, and I'm working with a colleague to make this happen. Should be available in a week or two. Waves hands vaguely ... "in open source time".

That's good to know. I interpreted initially as a request and not as a to-do item. I know others will be thrilled to know this, too. Thanks!

Great to hear!

I grabbed some changes from a couple of forks and put them in my own fork. No idea if they'll be helpful here...

will release this not in this next release I'm preparing today but the one following that hopefully in the next week. That will be a 2.6.x release (moving on from 1.24.2) and will likely break back compat.
