=== Ingest Attachment Processor Plugin
2016-03-04 01:49:31 -05:00
The ingest attachment plugin lets Elasticsearch extract file attachments in common formats (such as PPT, XLS, and PDF) by
using the Apache text extraction library http://lucene.apache.org/tika/[Tika].

You can use the ingest attachment plugin as a replacement for the mapper attachment plugin.
The source field must be a base64 encoded binary. If you do not want to incur
the overhead of converting back and forth between base64, you can use the CBOR
format instead of JSON and specify the field as a bytes array instead of a string
representation. The processor will skip the base64 decoding then.

NOTE: Extracting contents from binary data is a resource intensive operation and
consumes a lot of resources. It is highly recommended to run pipelines
using this processor in a dedicated ingest node.
