newspaper-bitrepository-ingester

Provides bit preservation of the jp2 files found in a batch by:

  • Generated a unique FileID identifying the file in the repository.
  • Ingest the file into the bit repository verifying the ingest using the checksum for the file.
  • Register the archived file in the DOMS system.

Architecture

The ingester uses an injected TreeIterator to traverse a batch tree and add each detected jp file to the bit repository system. The ingester acts as a bit repository put client.

It is also the responsibility of the ingester to register the batch as 'force-online', thereby preventing the offline pillar from moving the files contained in a batch to tape. It is the responsibility of the QA process to release the batch for offline storage, when the batch has been approved.
