Method Detail

canExtract

boolean canExtract(java.io.File file)

Can the file be extracted by the CompoundExtractor service? The service may or may not invest the file more closely or may simply guess by the file extension. So a true result does not guarantee, that the file may be extracted without any exceptions.

Parameters:

file - the file in question.

Returns:

true if the given file can be extracted, false if not.

canExtract

boolean canExtract(java.net.URL url,
                   java.lang.String mimeType)

Can the file be extracted by the CompoundExtractor service? The service may or may not invest the file more closely or may simply guess by the given mime type and the file extension. So a true result does not guarantee, that the file may be extracted without any exceptions.

Parameters:

url - URL in question

mimeType - mimetype (if any could be determined)

Returns:

canExtract

boolean canExtract(java.lang.String fileName,
                   java.lang.String mimeType)

Can the file be extracted by the CompoundExtractor service? The service may or may not invest the file more closely or may simply guess by the given mime type and the file extension. So a true result does not guarantee, that the file may be extracted without any exceptions.

Parameters:

fileName - the name of the file in question.

mimeType - mimetype (if any could be determined)

Returns:

extract

java.util.Iterator<Record> extract(java.io.InputStream compoundInputStream,
                                   java.lang.String fileName,
                                   java.lang.String contentAttachmentName)
                                   throws CompoundExtractorException

Extract the compounds (recursively) and return an iterator over the resulting records that have been created from the extracted compound. The Extractor should also return a Record for the compound itself, also if the content of that record might be empty.

Parameters:

compoundInputStream - the input stream of the compound object.

fileName - the name of the file in question.

contentAttachmentName - name of attachment to store content of extracted elements in.

Returns:

an iterator for the records that resulted from the entries included in the compound along with their content. The Iterator must not be null but empty if there are no records to be extracted.

Throws:

CompoundExtractorException - on errors while extracting the compound.

extract

java.util.Iterator<Record> extract(java.io.InputStream compoundInputStream,
                                   java.lang.String fileName,
                                   java.lang.String mimeType,
                                   java.lang.String contentAttachmentName)
                                   throws CompoundExtractorException

Extract the compounds (recursively) and return an iterator over the resulting records that have been created from the extracted compound. The Extractor should also return a Record for the compound itself, also if the content of that record might be empty.

Parameters:

compoundInputStream - the input stream of the compound object.

fileName - the name of the file in question.

mimeType - mimetype (if any could be determined)

contentAttachmentName - name of attachment to store content of extracted elements in.

Returns:

an iterator for the records that resulted from the entries included in the compound along with their content. The Iterator must not be null but empty if there are no records to be extracted.

Throws:

CompoundExtractorException - on errors while extracting the compound.
