title: FileTrove
creators: Steffen Fritz
abstract: FileTrove is a fast file indexer. It is using siegfried for format identification; it checks, if a file is in the NSRL; it creates UUIDs, hash sums, reads file timestamps, calculates the entropy and much more. It is planned to add YARA support (what will be a hot topic in digital preservation).
  
  The single binary command line application is written in Golang, uses Sqlite as database backend and BoltDB as NSRL SHA1 storage.
  
  FileTrove is in development at the moment but stable enough to has a BETA release in the coming weeks.
  
  The German Literature Archive Marbach will introduce with the usage of FileTrove in its workflows and the author of the tool will present FileTrove, from installation to working with the results.
