Synopsis

This project is being sponsored by UCLA Library and NYPL Special Collections but more collaborators are welcome! Please get in touch on the community user forum.

Archivematica is designed to be very AIP-centric but users want to be able to access common files (commonalities could include file type, date ingested, tools used to generate metadata, or other) across AIPs. For example, a user might want to know how many PDFs were ingested across all AIPs between January and June of 2017. Alternatively, a user might want to run a file identification report before creating a SIP that identifies file types as a form of high-level analysis or scan of what is contained in the transfer.

To start, the goal of this project is to be able to query the Archivematica database to locate the total number of files in the storage service by its PRONOM fmt/id.

User story

As a repository manager I want to be able to search across AIPs to locate how many of a certain file type I have. Ideally, I'd like to be able to narrow my search using date or other parameters.
