RawExtractor

RawExtractor, or in short rex, is a small utility designed for extracting embedded thumbnails from various raw image formats. Its main goals are simplicity and ease-of-use. Unlike existing tools like exiv2 or exiftools, it doesn't require complex input arguments nor any bash hacking.

Goals / Features

  • Extract embedded thumbnail with largest available resolution
  • Preserve metadata on extracted thumbnail
  • Ease of use
  • (TODO) Offer flexibility in choice of destination and file naming

Dependencies

  • Exiv2: C++ Library used to interact with the metadata of the image
  • gexiv2: GObject wrapper around Exiv2
