Format built on a container

This page is generated from the code and must not be edited by hand.

A file whose contents are a container, such as HDF5, is flagged as built on that container, and a ZIP under an archive’s extension is asked about, since only the lab can say what it holds.

format_built_on_a_container version 2+d1

• Kind of rule: What is raised for attention (flags). Raises something for a person’s attention without concluding anything.

• What it concludes: a finding

• Reasoning: defeasible. A conclusion is usually right, and is retracted when a rule it names concludes against it.

• What it reads: one file at a time

Is it available in this version?

Yes. The engine runs it.

What would defeat it

A finding is never withdrawn. When any of these rules also concludes about the same thing, the finding records it:

• installed_software_in_folder: A folder is recognized as an installed program, such as a copy of Fiji or a Python environment, from the parts it holds, a name ending .app, its program-style subfolders or a majority of program files; its files are still indexed and read, and rules about experiments leave them alone.

It stands aside beneath every folder one of these rules raises:

• installed_software_in_folder

Parameters

Parameter	Shipped value	May be	What it does
detector	"signature"	text	The type detector whose opinion stands behind the reading.
raises	"container"	one of any_disagreement, contradiction, container	Which half of a disagreement this rule reads.
container_media_types	["application/gzip", "application/pdf", "application/x-hdf5", "application/x-ole-storage", "application/x-tar", "application/x-xz", "application/x-bzip2", "application/vnd.sqlite3", "application/x-iso9660-image", "application/x-elf", "application/x-mach-binary", "video/mp4", "video/quicktime"]	list of text	The containers a format is written on.
unclear_media_types	["application/zip"]	list of text	The containers whose use only a laboratory can say.
archive_types	["archive_format", "compressed_archive", "compression_format"]	list of text	The file types that are archives. An unclear container under an extension the Dictionary names as any other format is that program’s own, and is not asked about.
