cci-facet-scanner 0.7.2

Extracts facets from datasets to add to elasticsearch.

CEDA Facet Scanner

CEDA Dependencies

Takes datasets and extracts the facets from the files/filepath. The scanner works to map a file path to the specific handler for that collection of files. For example, ESA CCI datasets are scanned by the cci handler. This is because each collection of datasets will have different characteristics and will need to be treated in a different way.

Installation

Create a Python virtual environment: Must be Python 3

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

This package can be installed with the following:

git clone https://github.com/facet-scanner
cd facet-scanner
pip install -e .

NOTE: As of 22nd Jan 2025 the facet-scanner repository has been upgraded for use with Poetry version 2. This requires the use of an additional requirements_fix.txt patch while a solution for poetry dependencies in github is worked on. The above installation MUST be supplemented with:

pip install -r requirements_fix.txt

This is a temporary fix and will be removed when poetry is patched.

Running the code

facet_scanner (path_to_scan) [--conf <path_to_config.ini>]

Required:

Argument	Description
path_to_scan	File path in the archive to use as the basis of the scan. The scanner will take this path and retrieve all the files in the elasticsearch index at this point.

Optional:

Option	No. Arguments	Description
--conf	1	Allows you to set a different location for the config file.This defaults to ../conf/facet_scanner.ini relative to the script.

Facet Indexing with Rabbit

This repo also provides the code to read from the rabbit queue and process updates to the files index, adding facets.

Watched events:

• DEPOSIT

Exposed Queue Consumer Classes:

• rabbit_facet_indexer.queue_consumers.FacetScannerQueueConsumer

Configuration

Configuration is handled using a YAML file. The full configuration options are described in the rabbit_indexer repo

This process also requires an environment variable JSON_TAGGER_ROOT. This should be set to the json directory which contains the tagging json.

The required sections for the facet indexer are:

• rabbit_server
• indexer
• logging
• moles
• elasticsearch
• files_index

An example YAML file (secrets noted by ***** ):

Running

The indexer can be run using the helper script provided by rabbit_indexer repo. This uses an entry script and parses the config file to run your selected queue_consumer_class:

rabbit_event_indexer --conf <path_to_configuration_file>
