Title: Using a URI to generate metadata files
Post by: mujer_esponja on September 16, 2011, 08:15:01 AM
Hello,
I need to generate a JSON file, containing the metadata from a file which is uploaded in a remote server. Something like this:

exiftool http://www.edfr.com/images/wert_1.jpg -j /home/damaris/Desktop/metadata.json

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance,

On Linux, you can do this:

wget -qO - http://www.edfr.com/images/wert_1.jpg | exiftool -j - > /home/damaris/Desktop/metadata.json
