If you are a data preparer, how will the data be prepared? Please include tooling used and technical details?

We carry out secondary development based on https://github.com/karust/gogetcrawl. After downloading a batch of data from Amazon Web Services S3, it will automatically process the packaging and generate the car file. As long as the same download parameters are set, it can be downloaded and Generate car files with the same piececid to ensure that different SPs can download and encapsulate the same file to ensure that the data backup meets the requirements. After the car file is generated, a corresponding unit data will be generated at the same time, including filename, data_cid, piece_cid, piece_size and other information and written into the csv file. The csv file is the datacap distribution file that will be used later, and the file name is the downloaded The marker name and starting position of the dataset. Based on the metadata file, you can tell which portion of the total data set is saved by each LDN. The data download can be executed directly on the SP's device, or we can mail it to the SP through the hard disk after processing.
