Image::...ol::CBOR(3)
β¨ NAME β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to Image::...ol::CBOR(3) β which, yes, is the truncated little nickname the man page shows in its header, but the actual module is Image::ExifTool::CBOR π
It reads CBOR format metadata. that's it, that's the whole job, and it does it flawlessly π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
so like, plot twist: you don't call this yourself, okay?
This module is used by Image::ExifTool
it's a support module. it shows up when Image::ExifTool needs it. you're not the main character here, it is π«Ά
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
okay so Image::ExifTool::CBOR holds all the definitions that Image::ExifTool needs to read Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) formatted metadata β¨
and the way that matters is: this format is used by the C2PA specification. so when you're poking at content credentials and provenance stuff and your metadata is all binary and squishy, this module is the one decoding the vibe π₯
it's giving infrastructure. it's giving behind-the-scenes icon. no cap π―
