CCA Tools

Digital archives processing tools intended for use in BitCurator, an open source Ubuntu-derived digital forensics environment for digital forensics and digital archiving.

Tools

• Disk Image Processor: Creates ready-to-ingest SIPs from a directory of disk images and related files and a pre-populated archival description spreadsheet.
• Folder Processor: Creates ready-to-ingest SIPs from one or more directories on a local file system and a pre-populated archival description spreadsheet.
• SIP Creator: Creates ready-to-ingest SIP from user-selected directories and files and a pre-populated archival description spreadsheet.

Installation

In BitCurator v1.8.0+:
git clone https://github.com/CCA-Public/cca-tools && cd cca-tools
chmod u+x install.sh
sudo ./install.sh

PyQt4/5 issues

Please note that the v1.0.0 release of the CCA Tools use PyQt5 and Python 3 exclusively. Installation of PyQt5 may cause issues with existing PyQt4 programs in BitCurator. For links to PyQt4 versions of the programs that will not interfere with the functionality of the built-in BitCurator reporting tool GUIs, see the Installation section of the README for each individual repository.
