JHOVE REST WS resources and application server

Quick Start

REST wrappings for JHOVE, provides:

  • JAXB REST resources for JHOVE validation
  • Dropwizard application server
  • Basic Web GUI implementation

Build from source

You'll need Java 8 or greater and Maven to build the project.

  1. Clone this repo: git clone git@github.com:openpreserve/jhove-rest.git
  2. Drop into project directory: cd jhove-rest
  3. Compile and package via Maven mvn clean package

Run the server

From the cloned project directory to start the jetty server:

java -jar jhove-rest-server/target/jhove-rest-server-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar server jhove-rest.yml

Test WS Service deployment from command line

Using CURL:

curl localhost:8080/api/jhove
{"version":"1.22.1","buildDate":1556547671000,"rights":"Derived from software Copyright 2004-2011 by the President and Fellows of Harvard College. Version 1.7 to 1.11 independently released. Version 1.12 onwards released by Open Preservation Foundation. Released under the GNU Lesser General Public License."}

Test if the server is working via Web Browser

Open a browser and visit http://localhost:8080/

Explore the API

Go to http://localhost:8080/api/swagger#/jhove in your browser to see the swagger documentation of the API and try it.

Try via CURL

To validate a local file ./tmp/test.jpg use the following CURL command:

curl -F "file=@tmp/test.jpg" -F "module=JPEG-hul" localhost:8080/api/jhove/validate -H  "Accept:application/xml"

If you prefer JSON results:

curl -F "file=@tmp/test.jpg" -F "module=JPEG-hul" localhost:8080/api/jhove/validate -H  "Accept:application/xml"

Build with a different module selection/versions

The version of the JHOVE modules used to build the rest server are all held within pom.xml. Change the versions here to those required and rebuild the project.
