Hi all,

I would like to add a new module to my HS application to index pdf and html files. I dont want to store the whole text in my database, i just want to store it in the index. I have been searching on forums different alternatives like:

https://community.jboss.org/wiki/HibernateSearchAndOfflineTextExtraction
http://twproject.blogspot.com.es/2007/11/using-hibernate-search-with-complex.html


I think that the correct way is the first link but before I start to implement this, I would like know if anybody had the same problem and his solution.

I have like 300000 records and each one has 1, 2 or 3 PDF/HTML files...so i think that off-line extraction is a good idea.

Let me know any ideas...

Thanks in advance,

Hibernator,

Hi Hibernator,
the current Hibernate Search master include Apache Tika integration so it supports PDF parsing and text extraction directly; we didn't tag any release with it, so I'd suggest to checkout the sources and build a snapshot?
