Python读取图片EXIF信息类库介绍和使用实例

首先要介绍的是 Python Imaging Library，使用方法如下：

from PIL import Image

from PIL.ExifTags import TAGS
def get_exif_data(fname):

    """Get embedded EXIF data from image file."""

    ret = {}

    try:

        img = Image.open(fname)

        if hasattr( img, '_getexif' ):

            exifinfo = img._getexif()

            if exifinfo != None:

                for tag, value in exifinfo.items():

                    decoded = TAGS.get(tag, tag)

                    ret[decoded] = value

    except IOError:

        print 'IOERROR ' + fname

    return ret
if __name__ == '__main__':

    fileName = 'C:/Users/Leyond/Desktop/IMG_20121122_153514.jpg'

    exif = get_exif_data(fileName)

    print exif

返回的清单如下：

其中59932,是一大串十六进制的字符，不知为啥。除了PIL之外，还有许多类库可供使用：

Media Metadata for Python

EXIF.py

Python Exif Parser

A Blogger's Exif Parser

pyexiv2
接着看EXIF.PY，使用方法非常简单：exif.py IMG_20121122_153514.jpg

至于Python Exif Parser，好像没更新很久了，使用方法也很类似：

import exif

photo_path = "somePath\to\a\photo.jpg"

data = exif.parse(photo_path)

其他类库请自行研究。
