public class TikaMSExcelParserExample {

	public static void main(final String[] args) throws IOException, TikaException, SAXException {

		// detecting the file type
		BodyContentHandler handler = new BodyContentHandler();
		Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
		FileInputStream inputstream = new FileInputStream(new File("C:\\Users\\Saurabh Gupta\\Desktop\\TIKA\\TIKA-MS-EXCEL.xlsx"));
		ParseContext pcontext = new ParseContext();

		// OOXml parser
		OOXMLParser msofficeparser = new OOXMLParser();
		msofficeparser.parse(inputstream, handler, metadata, pcontext);
		System.out.println("Contents of the excel document:" + handler.toString());
		System.out.println("Metadata of the excel document:");
		String[] metadataNames = metadata.names();

		for (String name : metadataNames) {
			System.out.println(name + ": " + metadata.get(name));
		}
	}
}
