You can also contribute by filing bugs or new features please issue. The project has had notable contributions already, like reading ITPC data. Please contribute by forking this repo and issueing a pull request. Please refer to the source code for more advanced usages such as getting image data from a File/Blob object ( EXIF.readFromBinaryFile). To not slow down this is optional, and you need to call EXIF.enableXmp() before using. Since issue #53 was merged also extracting of XMP data is supported. You can also get back a string with all the EXIF information in the image pretty printed by using EXIF.pretty. See the source code for the full definition and use. Note there are also alternate tags, such the EXIF.TiffTags. You could use $(window).load() instead of $(document.ready() (please note that `exif-js has NO dependency on jQuery or any other external library). Because it fires before images are loaded. Or on an image's own onLoad function.įor jQuery users please note that you can NOT (reliably) use jQuery's ready event for this. You can implement this wait, by running your exif-extracting logic on the window.onLoad function. Important: Note that you have to wait for the image to be completely loaded, before calling getData or any other function. The tag names to use are listed in EXIF.Tags in exif.js. Or get a single tag with EXIF.getTag, where you specify the tag as the second parameter. You can access it's properties to get data like the image caption, the date a photo was taken or it's orientation. That image now has an extra exifdata property which is a Javascript object with the EXIF metadata. In the callback function you should use this to access the image with the aforementioned metadata you can then use as you want.

OR a user selected image in a element on your page.Īs a second parameter you specify a callback function.

Start with calling the EXIF.getData function. The package adds a global EXIF variable (or AMD or CommonJS equivalent).
