Description
This PR adds a pure python node dedicated to extract metadata from image files using exifTool. This node can be connected to the cameraInit node and for all images referenced in the "cameraInit.sfm" file, if exifTool is available, a file containing all metadata is generated. The file format can be selected amongst "txt", "xmp", "xml". Be aware that the "xmp" format cannot store all metadata contained in the image file.
Features list
Implementation remarks
The invocated exifTool command depends on the requested file format in the following way:
exiftool [args] imageFile > metadataFile.txt
exiftool -X [args] imageFile > metadataFile.xml
exiftool -tagsfromfile imageFile [args] metadataFile.xmp
Optional arguments 'args' can be defined through a string parameter of the meshroom node.
The boolean parameter "keepfilename" allows to keep the image file name for the metadata file but changing the file extension.
