Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-1285: -------------------------------------- read image metadata: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#qa/qa1622/_index.html - so possibly we can write it back as well if needed: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5125323/problem-setting-exif-data-for-an-image > Include EXIF metadata in image upload > ------------------------------------- > > Key: CB-1285 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1285 > Project: Apache Cordova > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: iOS > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Environment: iOS 5.1.1 (iPad 2 & iPhone 4) > Reporter: Stephen McKamey > Assignee: Shazron Abdullah > > Now that Cordova only supports iOS 4.2+, it would be great if it would > include the additional EXIF metadata which exists in original image files. > Currently this is all stripped. I've noticed a recent increased trend of iOS > apps declaring that they can gain access to EXIF data if the user permits > location information. If EXIF & geo data were passed through this would be a > huge gain for Cordova. > Related: a similar issue (CB-295) was opened for Android and it sounds like > it was implemented. From the other issue, it sounded like it was a side > effect of resizing the image. If no resizing needs to occur (i.e., the > untouched original bits are desired), then perhaps this would help? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
