CoreMedia CMS Improvements

Changes
  • The configuration property feeder.tika.enable has been removed from Content Feeder and CAE Feeder. Apache Tika is always used in the Feeder applications. The option to extract text from blob values in the Apache Solr search engine has been removed.

    Both Content Feeder and CAE Feeder now support the extraction of additional metadata properties from blob values by using Apache Tika. For details, read the description of the newly introduced configuration properties feeder.tika.appendMetadata and feeder.tika.copyMetadata in the [CoreMedia Search Manual].

  • The Content Feeder and CAE Feeder log a warning if text extraction from binaries takes very long using Apache Tika. They also skip binaries if text extraction takes extremely long.

    You can configure this behaviour with the properties feeder.tika.warn.milliseconds and feeder.tika.timeout.milliseconds. See the appendix of the [CoreMedia Search Manual] for a description and default values of these properties.

  • The deprecated methods registerTargets(CommandManager) and unregisterTargets(CommandManager) have been removed from class hox.corem.editor.toolkit.CommandManager.
