xmp - Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP) parser

XMP provides object oriented interface to XMP data (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensible_Metadata_Platform). XMP data can be found in PDF, JPEG, GIF, PNG, and many other formats.

Supported formats

Currently only JPEG is supported through exifr gem.

JPEG example

# gem install xmp exifr
require 'xmp'
require 'exifr'
require 'open-uri'

img = EXIFR::JPEG.new('spec/fixtures/multiple-app1.jpg')
xmp = XMP.parse(img)
xmp.dc.subject #=> ["something interesting"]

# explore XMP data
xmp.namespaces.each do |namespace_name|
namespace = xmp.send(namespace_name)
namespace.attributes.each do |attr|
  puts "#{namespace_name}.#{attr}: " + namespace.send(attr).inspect
end
end
