Helper Modules

This type of modules facilitate tedious tasks via some generic and some specific helper functions. This makes the other important modules readable and hence more manageable.

primer.py contains two important functions for reading files, loaded by loader.py and artifact.py modules:

• readPartialFile()

  Reads the loaded file only upto the maximum bytes required for detecting the artifact signature.

• readFile()

  Reads the entire loaded file, and returns formatted data which will be further processed by loader.py and eventually be fed to the RecycleViews.
