Project description
ammcpc --- Archivematica (AM) MediaConch (MC) Policy Checker (PC)
This command-line application and python module is a simple wrapper around the MediaConch tool which takes a file and a MediaConch policy file as input and prints to stdout a JSON object indicating, in a way that Archivematica likes, whether the file passes the policy check.
Installation
Install with pip:
pip install ammcpc
Install from source:
python setup.py install
Usage
Command-line usage:

Python usage with a policy file path:
>>> from ammcpc import MediaConchPolicyCheckerCommand
>>> policy_checker = MediaConchPolicyCheckerCommand(
policy_file_path='/path/to/my-policy.xml')
>>> exitcode = policy_checker.check('/path/to/file.mkv')
Python usage with a policy as a string:
>>> policy_checker = MediaConchPolicyCheckerCommand(
policy='<?xml><policy> ... </policy>',
policy_file_name='my-policy.xml')
