A Python 3 binding to the library exiv2.
python3-exiv2 is a Python 3 binding to exiv2, the C++ library for manipulation of EXIF, IPTC and XMP image metadata. It is a python 3 module that allows your scripts to read and write metadata (EXIF, IPTC, XMP, thumbnails) embedded in image files (JPEG, TIFF, ...).
It is designed as a high-level interface to the functionalities offered by libexiv2. Using python’s built-in data types and standard modules, it provides easy manipulation of image metadata.
python3-exiv2 is distributed under the GPL version 3 license.
The main content of the code was initially written by Olivier Tilloy for Python 2 under the name pyexiv2.
py3exiv2 depends on the following libraries:
- python (≥ 3.2)
- boost.python3 (http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/index.html)
