Features

Validate CERN SIP

Validates the folder in the given path according to the CERN SIP specification, following these steps:

1. Verify directory structure
2. Validate the manifest file against the desired sip JSON schema. By default uses sip-schema-v1.json, also shipped in this package
3. Validate the folder as a BagIt package
   • file are allowed to be missing if the manifest specifies it's a "lightweight" SIP.
4. Checks if every content file mentioned in the manifest is actually present in the payload

Usage:

from oais_utils import validate
validate("name_of_the_sip_folder")

sip.json schemas

SIP manifest JSON schemas are also shipped and exposed with this package.

To get a python dictionary with the schema short name as keys and the parsed (as python object) schema as value for the corresponding schema name, run:

import oais_utils
schemas = oais_utils.schemas

schemas.keys()
# ['v1']

schemas['v1']
# [...]
# (Returns the sip JSON schema "v1" as parsed python object)

schemas['v1']['$id']
# https://gitlab.cern.ch/digitalmemory/sip-spec/-/raw/main/versions/sip-schema-v1.json
