Overview

Welcome to pyexiv2's homepage!

pyexiv2 is a python binding to exiv2, the C++ library for manipulation of EXIF and IPTC image metadata. It is a python module that allows your python scripts to read and write metadata (EXIF, IPTC, thumbnail) embedded in image files (JPEG, TIFF, ...).

It is designed as a high level interface to the functionalities offered by exiv2 (and is built on top of it). Using python's built-in data types and standard modules, it provides easy manipulation of image metadata.

pyexiv2 is distributed under the GPL version 2 license.

The latest release is 0.1.3, released 2009-03-14, compiled against libexiv2 0.18. It supports EXIF and IPTC metadata, as well as JPEG thumbnails.

The upcoming version, 0.2, currently under development, will fully support XMP metadata.
