Extractors ============== One of the major features of Clowder is the ability to deploy custom extractors for when files are uploaded to the system. A full list of extractors is available in `Bitbucket `_. To write new extractors, `pyClowder `_ is a good starting point. It provides a simple Python library to write new extractors in Python. Please see the `sample extractors `_ directory for examples. That being said, extractors can be written in any language that supports HTTP, JSON and AMQP (ideally a `RabbitMQ client library `_ is available for it).
