Project description

pyexiv2

Read and write image metadata, including EXIF, IPTC, XMP, ICC Profile.

Features

Defects

  • Can't read the image larger than 2GB, or modify the image larger than 1GB. (related issue)
  • Not thread safe, because pyexiv2 uses some global variables in C++.
  • Currently, if you use ARM platform, you need to compile exiv2 and pyexiv2 manually, which is troublesome. (related issue)

Tests

There are some test cases in folder pyexiv2/tests.
