Constructor Detail

Document

public Document(byte[] fileBytes,
                java.time.LocalDate lastModified)

Create a Document from a file byte[]

Parameters:

fileBytes - - The file byte array

lastModified - - The last-revised date for this file.

This is extremely important so that the Parser knows how to interpret dates in the document that are expressed as "current" or "as of" (or similar) to correctly calculate date spans

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the fileBytes is null or empty

Document

public Document(String path)
         throws IOException

Create a Document from a file on the filesystem.

NOTE: this will automatically set the LastModified using Files.getLastModifiedTime(Path, LinkOption...)

If your files do not have an accurate 'LastWrite' or 'LastModified' time, you must use a different constructor

Parameters:

path - - The path to the file

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the file is empty

IOException - If an error occurs reading the file contents
