Metadata extraction reverse proxy based on twisted_ and exiftool_.

.. _exiftool: http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/

.. _twisted: https://twistedmatrix.com/

Installation

------------

::

   python3 -m pip install exifproxy

Usage

-----

::

   twist exifproxy --help

   Usage: twist [options] plugin [plugin_options] exifproxy [options]

   Options:

         --listen=   Listen port (strports syntax) [default: tcp:8080]

         --version   Display Twisted version and exit.

Requests to one of the proxy endpoints will be forwarded to the backend. When a

successful result is returned from the backend, content is extracted from the

body and sent to the client. The following proxy endpoints are available:

/json

  All metadata is extracted from the backend response using

  ``exiftool -j -g -a -struct`` and returned to the client with

  ``Content-Type`` header set to ``application/json``.

/xmp

  The ``xmp`` packet is extracted from the response and returned to the client

  with ``Content-Type`` header set to ``application/rdf+xml``.

/preview

  The first preview image is extracted from the backend response and returned

  to the client as a JPEG image.

/pageimage/{N}

  The Nth page image is extracted from the backend response and returned to the

  client as a JPEG image. Index starts from ``0``.
