Image::EXIF(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Image::EXIF — bestie, it's a Perl extension for exif library 💅 (this is the Image::EXIF(3pm) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, if u were wondering where u even are rn 🫶)

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

okay so here's the whole vibe in one code block, no notes:

use Image::EXIF;
use Data::Dumper;

my $exif = Image::EXIF->new($file_name);

# or:
my $exif = Image::EXIF->new;
$exif->file_name($file_name);

my $image_info = $exif->get_image_info(); # hash reference
my $camera_info = $exif->get_camera_info(); # hash reference
my $other_info = $exif->get_other_info(); # hash reference
my $point_shoot_info = $exif->get_point_shoot_info(); # hash reference
my $unknown_info = $exif->get_unknown_info(); # hash reference
my $all_info = $exif->get_all_info(); # hash reference

print Dumper($all_info);

construction: pass the file name straight into Image::EXIF->new($file_name), or make a bare Image::EXIF->new and set it later with $exif->file_name($file_name) — both routes are valid, pick ur fighter 💖

then: every get_*_info() call hands u back a hash reference, and get_all_info() is the one that ate 💅 print Dumper($all_info) and just look at it.
