NAME
    Archive::BagIt

VERSION
    version 0.050

SYNOPSIS
    This modules will hopefully help with the basic commands needed to
    create and verify a bag. My intention is not to be strict and enforce
    all of the specification. The reference implementation is the java
    version and I will endeavour to maintain compatibility with it.

        use Archive::BagIt;

        #read in an existing bag:
        my $bag_dir = "/path/to/bag";
        my $bag = Archive::BagIt->new($bag_dir);


        #construct bag in an existing directory
        my $bag2 = Archive::BagIt->make_bag($bag_dir);

        # Validate a BagIt archive against its manifest
        my $bag3 = Archive::BagIt->new($bag_dir);
        my $is_valid = $bag3->verify_bag();

WARNING
    This is experimental software for the moment and under active
    development. I hope to have a beta version available soon.

    We use it fairly widely in-house, but it doesn't necessarily implement
    all of the specs.

    Email me with anything you need done urgently.

    Also: Check out Archive::BagIt::Fast if you are willing to add some
    extra dependendies to get better speed by mmap-ing files.

NAME
    Archive::BagIt - An interface to make and verify bags according to the
    BagIt standard

SUBROUTINES
  new
   An Object Oriented Interface to a bag. Opens an existing bag.
  make_bag
   A constructor that will make and return a bag from a directory
       If a data directory exists, assume it is already a bag (no checking for invalid files in root)

  verify_bag
    An interface to verify a bag.

    You might also want to check Archive::BagIt::Fast to see a more direct
    way of accessing files (and thus faster).

  get_checksum
       This is the checksum for the bag, md5 of the manifest-md5.txt

  version
       Returns the bagit version according to the bagit.txt file.

  payload_files
      Returns an array with all of the payload files (those files that are below the data directory)

  non_payload_files
      Returns an array with files that are in the root of the bag, non-manifest files

  manifest_files
