Documentation: what are the actual "tests" this software performs? about osprey

[villanueval]

Hi,

The software is still under heavy development, so it is not optimized for easy deployment yet. I'll make a note to add these details to the documentation.

Deploying it now requires knowledge of Python, Flask, Linux, and MySQL to be able to run it.

The tests are configurable per project, but include:

• raw_pair: Is there a raw file in the 'raw_files_path'
• valid_name: Filename is in the list of allowed names
• unique_file: Name is not repeated in the project
• dupe_elsewhere: Check name against the dupe_elsewhere table, from other projects
• jhove: Run jhove validation
• magick: Run validation test with Imagemagick
• tifpages: Check the number of pages in the tif, typically a thumbnail
• tif_compression: Check if tif is compressed using LZW
• derivative: Check for a derivative file in 'derivative_files_path'

The mention of Shiny is from an old version. The current version uses a Python/Flask application for the dashboard.

We are doing a major overhaul this Summer and will have a more stable version in a few weeks.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that, its very useful information. I'll keep an eye on the project.
