Your personal file metadata storage database.

Hi there 👋

finspect's Issues

Android and iOS Build Pipeline

To enable mobile support in the future, begin to bring the codebase in line with the Golang mobile tools.

Organize Directory Structure for v0.1.0

Sort out the fInspect repository so that it is more in line with: http://golang.org/doc/code.html

Draft Initial File Metadata Format

Construct what the initial file metadata format should be in JSON.

Build Initial Concept of Indexer Service

Build an initial indexer service that can take:

• File URI
  • e.g (file://, dropbox://, etc...)

and perform the following:

• Basic Metadata Extraction
  • Filename, Filesize, Mimetype, Permissions etc..
• Check to see if we have indexed this file before.
  • If so, check for differences in metadata information and do not index if there is no difference.
  • If not, continue
• Write out all the metadata information in a JSON format to a UUID named file. (Create the file if it does not exist.)

Patch Up Unqlite As Viable Database Solution

The Unqlite library is almost feature complete but there are a few things we need for it in finspect, to fully investigate and see if it is a viable as an embedded database. We need to complete some of the key-value and relational functions that still have not been completed.

• Please fork from here: https://github.com/finspect/unqlitego

Build Initial Dummy Concept of Ingester Service

An dummy ingester service needs to be created that receives file objects and runs a dummy workflow process on it.

The workflow process does not need to be clearly defined yet, as we will have a clearer idea in milestone two.

Build Initial Concept of Watcher Service

Build or import and customize a cross platform watcher package, that can detect the following types of file modifications:

• File Creation
• File Deletion
• File Rename
• File Write
• File Permission Change

Once a change has been detected, the change type and basic file metadata should be re-added to the indexer service.

Create Initial HTML5 GUI For Basic Commands and Settings

Build a HTML5 interface that will allow users to configure:

• Basic Settings of finspect
• Add, Remove, Modify URI paths for the watching service
• Restart, Reload, Shutdown finspect.

Draft Up Plugin Architecture

We need a draft of how plugins will work within finspect.
