Retrieve EXIF File Meta Data? #13

Closed confile closed 10 years ago

confile commented 10 years ago

I use your filereader but how can I get the EXIF meta data of the file in the load(e, file) {} function?

I think there may be ways specific to file format. For instance, http://blog.nihilogic.dk/2008/05/reading-exif-data-with-javascript.html. I think you will just have to determine the type of file, then read its data and parse out the exif based on what type it is. I don't know of anything that will do this automatically. Would be very interesting to see a demo if you were able to get something working though.
