rexif 0.2.0

RExif is a native Rust create, written to extract EXIF data from JPEG and TIFF images.

Note that it is in very early stages of development. Any sort of feedback is welcome!

The crate contains a sample binary called 'rexiftool' that accepts files as arguments and prints the EXIF data. It gives a rough idea on how to use the crate. Get some sample images and run

cargo run [image file 1] [image file 2] ...

To learn to use this crate, start by the documentation of function parse_file(), and the struct ExifData that is returned by the parser. The rest falls more or less into place.

Code sample lightly edited from src/bin.rs:

match rexif::parse_file(&file_name) {
Ok(exif) => {
println!("{} {} exif entries: {}", file_name,
exif.mime, exif.entries.len());

for entry in &exif.entries {
println!("	{}: {}",
entry.tag_readable, 
entry.value_more_readable);
}
},
Err(e) => {
print!("Error in {}: {} {}", &file_name,
Error::description(&e), e.extra).unwrap();
}
}
