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
  • Backlog transfer
  • Processing

Ways Archivematica can touch the filesystem:

  • python's open()
  • python's shutil.{move|copy|rm}
  • cp, mv, mkdir, rm, chmod as client Scripts
  • dashboard configs (eg. AIP storage location, tranasfer source) javascript
