Documentation

jexifs –help

usage:
  jexifs -h
  jexifs [PATH:EXT] [OPTIONS]

description:
  Image-selection based on their exifdata.


positional argument:
  PATH:EXT                  Use all files anywhere under PATH that ends on EXT.


optional arguments:
  -h, --help                Print this help message and exit.
  -v, --version             Print the program's version and exit.
  -f, --format [FORMAT]     Specify the format of the output.
  -F, --Format [FORMAT]     Jexifs checks the first line of an index-file for
                            informations that helps to interprete the lines'
                            fields. If there is no headline use --Format to
                            specify its format.
  -i, --index [FILE]        Use FILE as index instead of checking jpegs.
  -H, --headline            Print the output's format as first line.
  -s, --sort TAG            Sort all images after TAG.
                            The default order is alphanumerical in regard of the
                            filenames (using the relative path including PATH).
                            Mind that sorting is memory-expensive, because the
                            data of all jpegs (resp. of the index-file) will be
                            loaded into memory. Only use it if needed.

TAG could be path, name, date, time, datetime, exposure_time or model.
FORMAT is an arbitrary sequence of these words (e.g. -f "path - date - time")


arguments for image-selection:

  data:
  -d, --dates DATE [DATE..] Select all images captured at DATE.
  -t, --times TIME [TIME..] Select all images captured at TIME.
  -D, --datetime DATE TIME  Select all images captured at DATE TIME.
                            Use this option multiple times to specify mor than
                            one datetime.
  -e, --exposure-time SEC [SEC2]
                            Select all images whose exposure-time is SEC or
                            between SEC and SEC2.
  -m, --model [MODEL]       Select all images whose been made with MODEL.


  durations:
  -p, --plus [HOURS] [MINUTES] [SECONDS]
                            Defines a duration that starts with a specified time.
                            To be used with --times or --datetime.
  -a, --first-after         Select the first matched image for after each
                            specified time. Use --plus to specify a timespan the
                            image should be in.
                            Mind that this only gives useful results if the
                            the images are sorted by datetime.
