EXIF

The exif crate provides a safe wrapper around the native libexif library.

Dependencies

In order to use the exif crate, you must have the libexif library installed where it can be found by pkg-config.

Usage

Add exif as a dependency in Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
exif = "0.0.1"

Import the exif crate.

extern crate exif;

use std::io;
use std::path::Path;

fn dump_exif<P: AsRef<Path>>(file_name: P) -> io::Result<()> {
    let data = try!(exif::Data::open("image.jpg"));

    for content in data.contents() {
        println!("[{:=>32}{:=>46}]", format!(" {:?} ", content.ifd()), "");

        for entry in content.entries() {
            println!("  {:<30} = {}",
                    entry.tag().title(content.ifd()),
                    entry.text_value());
        }
    }

    Ok(())
}
