Epic Video Disk Archive Script

To Install:

• open terminal
• if the system doesn’t have PIP installed, run: sudo easy_install pip
• cd to the directory
• install requirements for the program to run: sudo pip install -r requirements.txt
• copy config.ini.example file to config.ini and set required options
• run with python app.py

How it works:

• Searches for all external disks with a name starting with "Video" (reports error if none are found)
• Walks the disk, and uploads all files to a new folder with the same directory structure as the local
• New directory named with the following naming scheme by default: /Masters/[ISO 8601 datetime]
