This is the discussion page for the Archivematica Storage API (Issue #5158), requirements, and proposed implementations.
Initial Research
Goal: Look at all the places Archivematica currently accesses the filesystem, and categorize them.
Likely Categories:
- Transfers
- AIP Storage
- done in one place: src/MCPClient/lib/clientScripts/storeAIP.py
- Backlog transfer
- Processing
- touched everywhere, in all the client scripts, with python and client scripts.
- Probably best to keep local
- Already set up to be moved with %sharedDirectory% as long as folder structure inside %sharedDirectory% is preserved
Ways Archivematica can touch the filesystem:
- python's open()
- python's shutil.{move|copy|rm}
- python's os module (checking if file/directory exists, create directory, remove file)
- cp, mv, mkdir, rm, chmod as client Scripts
- dashboard configs (eg. AIP storage location, tranasfer source) javascript
