native_exif 0.2.0

A plugin to read and write exif data of images.

native_exif

A simple EXIF metadata reader/writer for Flutter using native functions from iOS and Android.

Usage

First create a EXIF reader instance by reading out an image path:

final exif = await Exif.fromPath(pickedFile!.path);

Reading attributes

Now you can run either pre-defined functions or get all attributes:

final originalDate = await exif.getOriginalDate();
final attributes = await exif.getAttributes();

Writing attributes

await exif.writeAttribute("key", "value");
await exif.writeAttributes({"key1": "value1", "key2": "value2"});

Close the exif interface

await exif.close();

Platform notes

This plugin does only work on iOS and Android. Other platforms are not yet supported.

Android

Only specific EXIF and GPS attributes are supported. Please look at android/src/main/kotlin/com/cloudacy/native_exif/NativeExifPlugin.kt for a list of supported attributes.

iOS

Only specific EXIF and GPS attributes are supported. Please look at EXIF dictionary keys and GPS dictionary keys for supported attributes.

Please note that all GPS dictionary keys need to be prefixed with GPS. For example: kCGImagePropertyGPSLatitude == "Latitude", which equals to "GPSLatitude" in native_exif.
