A Django app to receive, virus check and validate transfers of digital archival record
Aurora
Aurora is a Django web application that can receive, virus check and validate transfers of digital archival records, and allows archivists to appraise and accession those records.
The name of the application is a reference both to the natural light display often seen in the northern hemisphere – sometimes referred to as aurora borealis – as well as the Roman goddess of dawn.
Aurora is part of Project Electron, an initiative to build sustainable, open and user-centered infrastructure for the archival management of digital records at the Rockefeller Archive Center. Project updates are available on Bits & Bytes, the RAC’s blog.
Installation
Quick Start
If you have git and Docker installed, getting Aurora up and running is as simple as:
