Member Function Documentation

DataContentViewer org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.textcontentviewer.TextContentViewer.createInstance ( )

Create and return a new instance of your viewer. The reason that this is needed is because the specific viewer modules will be found via NetBeans Lookup and the type will only be DataContentViewer. This method is used to get an instance of your specific type.

Returns
A new instance of the viewer

Implements org.sleuthkit.autopsy.corecomponentinterfaces.DataContentViewer.

Definition at line 74 of file TextContentViewer.java.

Component org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.textcontentviewer.TextContentViewer.getComponent ( )

Return the Swing Component to display. Implementations of this method that extend JPanel and do a 'return this;'. Otherwise return an internal instance of the JPanel.

Returns
the component which is displayed for this viewer

Implements org.sleuthkit.autopsy.corecomponentinterfaces.DataContentViewer.

Definition at line 79 of file TextContentViewer.java.

default String org.sleuthkit.autopsy.corecomponentinterfaces.DataContentViewer.getTitle ( Node  node)
inherited

Returns the title of this viewer to display in the tab.

Parameters
nodeThe node to be viewed in the DataContentViewer.
Returns
the title of DataContentViewer.

Implemented in org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.Metadata.

String org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.textcontentviewer.TextContentViewer.getTitle ( )

Returns the title of this viewer to display in the tab.

Returns
the title of DataContentViewer

Implements org.sleuthkit.autopsy.corecomponentinterfaces.DataContentViewer.

Definition at line 63 of file TextContentViewer.java.

String org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.textcontentviewer.TextContentViewer.getToolTip ( )

Returns a short description of this viewer to use as a tool tip for its tab.

Returns
the tooltip for this TextViewer

Implements org.sleuthkit.autopsy.corecomponentinterfaces.DataContentViewer.

Definition at line 69 of file TextContentViewer.java.

int org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.textcontentviewer.TextContentViewer.isPreferred ( Node  node)

Checks whether the given viewer is preferred for the Node. This is a bit subjective, but the idea is that Autopsy wants to display the most relevant tab. The more generic the viewer, the lower the return value should be. This will only be called on viewers that support the given node (i.e., isSupported() has already returned true).

The following are some examples of the current levels in use. If the selected node is an artifact, the level may be determined by both the artifact and its associated file.

Level 8 - Used for viewers that summarize a data artifact and display a relevant subset to help the examiner decide if they should look into it further. Not currently used by any modules, but an example would be a module that summarizes an email message.

Level 7 - Used for data artifact viewers. These have higher priority over file content viewers because a Node will likely have the ‘source’ file for a data artifact and we want to give the artifact priority. Currently used by the Data Artifacts viewer.

Level 6 - Used for type-specific file content viewers that summarize the file content and display a relevant subset. These viewers help the examiner determine if the file is worth looking into further. Examples of this would be Video Triage Module that displays a subset of a video or a document.

Level 5 - Used for type-specific file content viewers that are optimized for that type, such as displaying an image or a PDF file with images and proper layout. Currently used by the Application viewer.

Level 4 - Used for type-specific file content viewers that are not optimized. For example, displaying only the plain text from a PDF would be at this level, but displaying the same PDF with images and layout would be level 5. Currently used by the Text viewer that returns text from Solr.

Level 3 - Used for viewing Data Artifacts that refer to files and the user may want to view the files more than the artifact itself. This is currently used by the Data Artifact viewer when a Web Download artifact is selected.

Level 2 - Used for viewing Analysis Results. This is a lower priority than Data Artifacts and file content because Analysis Results are used to identify content of interest and therefore the content itself should be shown. Currently used by the Analysis Results viewer. * Level 1 - Used for metadata viewers that give more information and context about the primary file or artifact. Currently used by Metadata, Annotations, Context, Other Occurrences, and OS Account.

Level 0 - Used for general purpose file content viewers that are not file specific and will always be enabled. Currently used by Text/Strings and Hex.

Parameters
nodeNode to check for preference
Returns
an int (0-10) higher return means the viewer has higher priority

boolean org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.textcontentviewer.TextContentViewer.isSupported ( Node  node)

Checks whether the given node is supported by the viewer. This will be used to enable or disable the tab for the viewer.

Parameters
nodeNode to check for support
Returns
True if the node can be displayed / processed, else false

Implements org.sleuthkit.autopsy.corecomponentinterfaces.DataContentViewer.

void org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.textcontentviewer.TextContentViewer.resetComponent ( )
void org.sleuthkit.autopsy.contentviewers.textcontentviewer.TextContentViewer.setNode ( Node  selectedNode)

Autopsy will call this when this panel is focused with the file that should be analyzed. When called with null, must clear all references to previous nodes.

Parameters
selectedNodethe node which is used to determine what is displayed in this viewer
