Apache Tika Docker Image

Apache Tika Server

This repo contains convenience Docker images published by the http://tika.apache.org Dev team for Apache Tika Server.

The images are build using the Dockerfiles in the https://github.com/apache/tika-docker repos to create a functional Apache Tika Server instance that contains the latest Ubuntu running the appropriate version's server on Port 9998 using Java 8 (until version 1.20), Java 11 (1.21 and 1.24.1), Java 14 (until 1.27/2.0.0), and Java 16 for newer versions.

There is a minimal version, which contains only Apache Tika and it's core dependencies, and a full version, which also includes dependencies for the GDAL and Tesseract OCR parsers. To balance showing functionality versus the size of the full image, this file currently installs the language packs for the following languages:

• English
• French
• German
• Italian
• Spanish.

To install more languages simply update the apt-get command to include the package containing the language you required, or include your own custom packs using an ADD command.

Usage

You can pull down the version you would like using:

docker pull apache/tika:<version>

Then to run the container, execute the following command:

docker run -d -p 127.0.0.1:9998:9998 apache/tika:<version>

Where <version> is the Apache Tika Server version - e.g. 2.5.0 or 2.5.0-full.

Note

In the examples above, we recommend binding the server to localhost because Docker alters iptables and may expose your tika-server to the internet. If you are confident that your tika-server is on an isolated network you can simply run:

docker run -d -p 9998:9998 apache/tika:<version>

CHANGES

For a full list of changes since 2.5.0.1, please visit https://github.com/apache/tika-docker/blob/master/CHANGES.md.

Building

To build the image from scratch, simply invoke:

docker build -t 'apache/tika' github.com/apache/tika-docker

You can then use the following command (using the name you allocated in the build command as part of -t option):

docker run -d -p 127.0.0.1:9998:9998 apache/tika
