import org.xml.sax.SAXException;

public class MSExcelParse {

   public static void main(final String[] args) throws IOException, TikaException {
      
      //detecting the file type
      BodyContentHandler handler = new BodyContentHandler();
      Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
      FileInputStream inputstream = new FileInputStream(new File("example_msExcel.xlsx"));
      ParseContext pcontext = new ParseContext();
      
      //OOXml parser
      OOXMLParser  msofficeparser = new OOXMLParser (); 
      msofficeparser.parse(inputstream, handler, metadata,pcontext);
      System.out.println("Contents of the document:" + handler.toString());
      System.out.println("Metadata of the document:");
      String[] metadataNames = metadata.names();
      
      for(String name : metadataNames) {
         System.out.println(name + ": " + metadata.get(name));
      }
   }
