Enum Exif 

pub enum Exif {
    Raw(Vec<u8>),
    Fields(ExifFields),
}

EXIF metadata - either raw bytes or built from common fields.

Use Exif::raw for user-provided EXIF TIFF bytes, or Exif::build to construct EXIF from common fields like orientation and copyright.

The two modes are mutually exclusive at compile time - you cannot accidentally mix raw bytes with field-based building.

Variants

Raw(Vec<u8>)

Raw EXIF TIFF bytes (without the Exif\0\0 APP1 prefix).

Fields(ExifFields)

Built from common fields.

Implementations

impl Exif

pub fn raw(bytes: impl Into<Vec<u8>>) -> Self

Create EXIF from raw TIFF bytes.

The bytes should be raw TIFF data without the Exif\0\0 APP1 prefix (the encoder adds that automatically).

pub fn build() -> ExifFields

Start building EXIF from common fields.

Returns an ExifFields builder that can be chained with .orientation() and .copyright() methods.

pub fn to_bytes(&self) -> Option<Vec<u8>>

Convert to raw TIFF bytes for embedding.

Returns None if no fields are set (for the Fields variant).

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Exif

fn clone(&self) -> Exif

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Exif

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl From<ExifFields> for Exif

fn from(fields: ExifFields) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.
