- refactored `./fido/update_signatures.py` to add clarity; - generated FIDO sig file now validates against `fido/config/fido-formats.xsd` + fixed inconsistency between FIDO sig schema and 'fido/prepare.py''s use of 'apple_uid' and `apple_uti`; - PRONOM HTTP methods in dedicated `./fido/pronom/http.py` module (this needs to get more methods or merging with the SOAP module); - added basic (hacky) catch for 404s when downloading test resources; - safer use of empty list default for `fido/prepare.py FormatInfo:__init__`.
- allow zero signature elements; and - ommitted for previous check in.
- Python 2 compatibility re-established; - Pydoc and line spacing for CI tests on Travis.
Signatures now compiled and hosted on a web based update site: - Site URL set in config. - Docker based update web app to host and serve signature information. - FIDO CLI arguments `-sigs check` and `-sigs update` control automatic signature updates. This was implemented by: - implementing a REST service for FIDO signatures in `fido.signatures`; + simple flask REST app that parses a static dir/file structure; + endpoint to list versions; + endpoint that identifies latest version; + endpoints to download sig file collateral by version and `latest` for signature updates; + added resources for legacy format and container signatures; - adding simple REST client functionality to FIDO CLI: + `-sigs check` compares configured PRONOM sig version with REST latest and indicates if an update is required; + `-sigs update` pulls the latest version if the installed version is stale and updates the conf file as required;
