XMP support for RDFLib, tools for manipulating XMP metadata

Project description

XMP Tools

version license Documentation Status

This package provides basic XMP support for RDFLib, including parsing, modification, and serialization. XMP is Adobe's metadata format, based on RDF. Trivially, XMP metadata is RDF serialized as RDF/XML, "wrapped" within a special XML element.

Adobe's XMP documentation can be found here.

Unit tests with incomplete coverage are provided, as well as some documentation and examples.

The parser and the serializer are implemented as RDFLib plugins. Because of limited extensibility of RDFLib, we have copied some methods from RDFLib and modified them. The plugins register themselves as format="xmp". Normally, you do not have to know this, as we provide convenience functionality for reading and writing XMP (see below).

Future plans

Make the embedded metadata support more "robust". Writing of embedded metadata is not in the plans, at least for now.
