Description

At the moment, it is not possible to use tika-parsers in a modularized environment. The following error is thrown at runtime:

java.lang.module.FindException: Unable to derive module descriptor for org.apache.tika\tika-parsers\1.22\b8a823128f6165882ae41de3ded8655609d62d88\tika-parsers-1.22.jar
Caused by: java.lang.module.InvalidModuleDescriptorException: Provider class org.apache.tika.parser.external.CompositeExternalParser not in module

 

Could you please provide a proper module-info.java class listing the necessary providers (and dependencies of course).
