Check file content #72

Open JuliaSprenger opened 3 years ago

Currently the AnDOChecker only considers folder and file names, but does not check the content of metadata files for required fields. We should discuss on how this kind of check can be integrated in the current architecture. These checks need to be quite flexible, as some metadata files or entries are only required in certain circumstances, eg. a tasks.csv is only required if the concept of tasks is used in the dataset.

One possible implementation would be function / method based, i.e. having one function checking the consistency of all task entries within the structure. However, this would be a quite different approach to the current rule_set approach taken for file and folder names.

Are there any additional proposals on how to add these specifics checks to the current architecture?

Yes, but I have to admit I'm a bit reluctant to get into this... Could we first make progress on the DigLab2AnDO development? And get it to be used by users...

Also, we might want to discuss this, this might be easier...

Yes I would keep that for later too.
