A PHP library for reading and writing Exif headers in JPEG and TIFF images.
MediaProbe is a fork of the PHP Exif library. See all the contributors.
MediaProbe makes it easy to develop programs that will read and write the Exif metadata headers found in JPEG and TIFF images. See the file INSTALL.md for an introduction to how MediaProbe can be used by your application.
Please note that the API for MediaProbe is not yet frozen, and it will remain changeable until version a stable version 1.0.0 is reached.
composer require fileeye/mediaprobe

Help will be very much appreciated. You can report issues, run the test suite, add patches. The best way to help out is applying patches and helping out with the tests. See instructions in the test/ directory.
All changes to code should be issued through a pull request, and other maintainers should review the code and merge it.
The first place you should consult for support is the documentation supplied with MediaProbe, found in the doc/ directory. There you will find a complete API documentation with descriptions of all classes and files in MediaProbe.
The scripts found in the examples/ directory are also a good source of information, especially the edit-description.php file which has tons of comments.
MediaProbe is hosted on Github and uses the tools found there for support. This means that all questions, bug reports, etc. should be directed there (and not directly to the developers).
Please try the latest version before reporting bugs -- it might have been fixed already. The latest code can be found in the git repository at
https://github.com/FileEye/MediaProbe
It is very helpful if you try out the latest code from the git repository before submitting a bug report. The code found there is generally very stable.
To make MediaProbe as stable as possible, it is tested with images from a number of different camera models.
New test images are very much appreciated -- please download the existing test images and read the README file found there for instructions.
Please see the AUTHORS file for a list of people who have contributed to MediaProbe.
