When I use filters in standard Photos application in IOS8, I can't get full metadata.
I try two methods fetch metadata:
[manager requestImageDataForAsset:asset options:options resultHandler:^(NSData *imageData, NSString *dataUTI, UIImageOrientation orientation, NSDictionary *info) {
CIImage *ciimage = [CIImage imageWithData:imageData];
NSMutableDictionary *exif = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[exif addEntriesFromDictionary:ciimage.properties];
}];
[asset requestContentEditingInputWithOptions:editOptions completionHandler:^(PHContentEditingInput *contentEditingInput, NSDictionary *info) {
CIImage *cimage = [CIImage imageWithContentsOfURL:contentEditingInput.fullSizeImageURL];
NSMutableDictionary *exif = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[exif addEntriesFromDictionary:cimage.properties];
}];
I have not found any mention to the application Photos. I get such a result is always:
{
ColorModel = RGB;
DPIHeight = 72;
DPIWidth = 72;
Depth = 8;
Orientation = 1;
PixelHeight = 2592;
PixelWidth = 1936;
"{Exif}" = {
ColorSpace = 1;
PixelXDimension = 1936;
PixelYDimension = 2592;
};
"{JFIF}" = {
DensityUnit = 1;
JFIFVersion = (
1,
0,
1
);
XDensity = 72;
YDensity = 72;
};
"{TIFF}" = {
Orientation = 1;
};
Has anyone found a solution how to get the metadata of the images that have been edited in Photos?
I want see metadata like this:
I found how fetch original metadata:
PHImageRequestOptions *options = [PHImageRequestOptions new];
options.networkAccessAllowed = YES;
options.synchronous = YES;
options.version = PHImageRequestOptionsVersionOriginal;
[manager requestImageDataForAsset:asset options:options resultHandler:^(NSData *imageData, NSString *dataUTI, UIImageOrientation orientation, NSDictionary *info) {
CIImage *ciimage = [CIImage imageWithData:imageData];
NSMutableDictionary *exif = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[exif addEntriesFromDictionary:ciimage.properties];
}];
You can get creation date, modification date from properties of PHAsset. PHAsset properties
I have tried the EXACT same code as well as every other alternative mechanism to retrieve the original image data from Photo app in the XCode IOS 8 simulator and the only thing that comes back for any image I in photo app under the simulator is virtually empty EXIF -- pretty much the same stuff illustrated in the original question.
Here's the question: Is this isolated to ONLY the simulator? Is there an issue with adding images to Photo app in the simulator via drag and drop?
PHImageManager.defaultManager().requestImageForAsset(assetImage as PHAsset, targetSize:PHImageManagerMaximumSize, contentMode: .AspectFill, options: nil, resultHandler: { (initialResult, _) in
self.photoImageView.image = initialResult as UIImage
println("WTF")
println(initialResult)
})
and this
PHImageManager.defaultManager().requestImageDataForAsset(assetImage, options: imageRequestOptions, resultHandler: { (imageData: NSData!, dataUti: String!, orientation: UIImageOrientation, _) in
println("requestImageDataForAsset")
println(imageData)
let imageTest = CIImage(data: imageData)
println(imageTest)
let imageMeta = imageTest.properties()
println(imageMeta)
})
and this
assetImage.requestContentEditingInputWithOptions(initialRequestOptions, completionHandler: { (input: PHContentEditingInput!, _) -> Void in
//Get full image
let url = input.fullSizeImageURL
let orientation = input.fullSizeImageOrientation
var inputImage = CIImage(contentsOfURL: url)
inputImage = inputImage.imageByApplyingOrientation(orientation)
for (key, value) in inputImage.properties() {
println("key: \(key)")
println("value: \(value)")
}
})
all produce the same results in the XCode IOS simulator for 8.0/8.1.
Does your code work for the simulator? It appears to be the same as the second sample I provided that does not.
It's so strange.
NSString *albumName = @"albumName"
PHFetchOptions *fetchOption = [[PHFetchOptions alloc]init];
fetchOption.predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"title == %@",albumName];
PHFetchResult *result = [PHAssetCollection fetchAssetCollectionsWithType:PHAssetCollectionTypeAlbum subtype:PHAssetCollectionSubtypeAlbumRegular options:fetchOption];
PHFetchOptions *fetchOption = [[PHFetchOptions alloc]init];
fetchOption.sortDescriptors = @[[NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"creationDate" ascending:NO]];
fetchOption.predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"mediaType == 1"];
fetchOption.wantsIncrementalChangeDetails = YES;
PHFetchResult *result = [PHAsset fetchAssetsInAssetCollection:[result firstObject] options:nil];
//MetaData here is not complicated as you get
[result[0] requestContentEditingInputWithOptions:nil completionHandler:^(PHContentEditingInput *contentEditingInput, NSDictionary *info) {
CIImage *image = [CIImage imageWithContentsOfURL:contentEditingInput.fullSizeImageURL];
NSDictionary *metaData = [[NSDictionary alloc]initWithDictionary:image.properties];
NSLog(@"metadata: %@", image.properties.description);
}];
Use the code above ,the metaData is just not complicated .
And then..
NSString *type = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"mediaType == 1 && (pixelWidth != %f && pixelHeight != %f)",SCREEN_WIDTH*scale,SCREEN_HEIGHT*scale];
allPhotosfetchOption.predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:type];
PHFetchResult *result = [PHAsset fetchAssetsWithMediaType:PHAssetMediaTypeImage options:allPhotosfetchOption];
[result[0] requestContentEditingInputWithOptions:nil completionHandler:^(PHContentEditingInput *contentEditingInput, NSDictionary *info) {
CIImage *image = [CIImage imageWithContentsOfURL:contentEditingInput.fullSizeImageURL];
NSDictionary *metaData = [[NSDictionary alloc]initWithDictionary:image.properties];
NSLog(@"metadata: %@", image.properties.description);
}];
Here I can get fully metadata...I think it is one bug of Photos.framework
