info-typer

An AMQP message based info type detector

info-typer listens to the irods AMQP topic exchange for iRODS change messages related to data objects. The iRODS change messages are described in the document https://docs.google.com/document/d/126uSOX8VWfFyRub1Ibqiknf4QbQuDZLOCktoBLpgqsE/edit. For each data-object change message, info-typer attempts to detect the info type of the corresponding file. If it succeeds, it updates the ipc-filetype AVU in iRODS with the detected info type.

This is not a public facing service. It has no API.
