This project is part of the Transfer Digital Records project. It is a prototype for an application that a Digital Archivist might use to export files from S3 once a transfer has been finalized.

The full export has several steps:

• Download files from S3, and create a directory of files to export
• Zip the files
• Upload the encrypted file to a different S3 bucket

You can run the steps separately, or run them together with Docker.

Configure your AWS credentials in the ~/.aws/credentials file. The download step will use this configuration to authenticate requests to S3.

Set the mandatory environment variables in the command line or in IntelliJ:

• GRAPHQL_SERVER: The hostname of the API, e.g. http://localhost:8080 in development
• GRAPHQL_PATH: The path of the GraphQL API endpoint, e.g. graphql in development
• CONSIGNMENT_ID: the database ID of the consignment to export

Then run sbt download/run.

By default, this will download the contents of a specific S3 bucket to a temporary directory, and create a BagIt bag in another temporary directory.

You can also set some optional environment variables to configure the download:

• INPUT_BUCKET_NAME: name of the S3 bucket to download files from
• INPUT_FOLDER_NAME: name of the parent S3 folder (defaults to the consignment ID)
• FILE_DOWNLOAD_DIR: the local folder to download files to
• BAG_DIR: the local folder to save the BagIt bag to

Use tar to create a .tar.gz file:

tar -zcvf name-of-output-file.tar.gz /path/of/directory/to/zip

Run:

ARCHIVE_FILEPATH=/path/of/file/to/upload \
  sbt exportZip/run

setting the ARCHIVE_FILEPATH variable to the file to be uploaded.

You can also set the S3 bucket to upload the file to in an optional parameter: EXPORT_BUCKET.

• Build the jar files with sbt clean assembly

• Build the image with docker build . --tag exportfiles

• Run the Docker image, setting environment variables:

  docker run \
    --env ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_aws_key_id \
    --env SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_aws_secret_key \
    --env GRAPHQL_SERVER=https://graphql-api-hostname.amazonaws.com \
    --env GRAPHQL_PATH=some/api/path \
    --env CONSIGNMENT_ID=1234 \
    --env EXPORT_BUCKET=name-of-s3-bucket \
    exportfiles:latest
  

  You can also set INPUT_BUCKET_NAME and INPUT_FOLDER_NAME to specify the S3 bucket and folder to download.
