Configuration

There will be times you need to configure different locations for defaults. Goose provides a configuration object that can be passed into the extractor so you can set items that make sense to your environment.

See example below:

    public class GooseTest {

  @Test
  public void gooseFromJavaTest() {

    // set my configuration options for goose
    Configuration configuration = new Configuration();
    configuration.setMinBytesForImages(4500);
    configuration.setLocalStoragePath("/tmp/goose");
    configuration.setEnableImageFetching(false); // i don't care about the image, just want text, this is much faster!
    configuration.setImagemagickConvertPath("/opt/local/bin/convert");
    
    String url = "http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/08/13/democrats.social.security/index.html";
    Goose goose = new Goose(configuration);
    Article article = goose.extractContent(url);
    System.out.println(article.cleanedArticleText());


  }
