SpeedBagIt

Build Status

A fast, minimal BagIt library that serves bags without touching the filesystem. Ever. This library was designed for servers serving zip files that conform to the BagIt specification. This differs from other BagIt libraries in that it doesn't create a temporary zip file of the bag on disk. Instead, it performs checksumming and size calculations on the fly as the bag is being served. This avoids unnecessarily copying data files to disk which is a common bottleneck for delivering content.

Installing

Maven

To use SpeedBagIt in your project, first add the DataONE maven repository to your project's pom.xml file.

<repository>
    <id>dataone.org</id>
    <url>http://maven.dataone.org/</url>
    <releases>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
    </releases>
    <snapshots>
        <enabled>true</enabled>
    </snapshots>
</repository>

Then, add the SpeedBagIt dependency to the pom.xml file.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.dataone</groupId>
    <artifactId>speedbagit</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
</dependency>

Compiling & Including the Jar

SpeedBagIt can also be installed by cloning this repository and including the resulting jar file in your project.

git clone https://github.com/DataONEorg/speed-bagit.git
cd speed-bagit
mvn install

Quick Start

Customizing bagit.txt

Staying true to the BagIt specification, SpeedBagIt supports user defined key-value pairs in bagit.txt.

Creating the key-value pairs,

Map<String, String> bagMetadata = new HashMap<>();
bagMetadata.put("description", "This bag contains information about polar ice caps.");
bagMetadata.put("Contact-Email", "admin@dataone.org");
bagMetadata.put("External-Identifier", doi:xx.1234);

Pass the key-value pairs to the SpeedBagIt constructor.

try {
    bag = new SpeedBagIt(1.0, "MD-5", bagMetadata);
} catch (SpeedBagException | NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
    ...
}

Contributing

The takeaway for contributing is that feature branches are created off of the develop branch and pull requests should be made into the develop branch rather than master.

For example, the workflow to create a pull request for a feature that adds support for fetch.txt follows

  • Create an issue describing your planned changes, or add a comment to an existing relevant issue
  • Checkout the develop branch, followed by git checkout -b feature_support_fetch_file
  • Commit your changes to the feature_support_fetch_file branch
  • Create a pull request from feature_support_fetch_file into develop and outline the code changes and how to test it
  • Once the code is reviewed, our team will merge in your changes and you're done!

Code Style

This project conforms to the Google Java Style Guide and new contributions should follow suite.

Unit Tests

Unit tests should be created for all new classes and if possible, public methods. When writing unit tests, keep in mind that the points are

  • After your contribution is merged, no one accidentally breaks it in the future
  • Early validation of potential bugs in your code
  • Examples for future developers and users to see how the classes and methods can be used
