EXIF extractor service

Implementations

impl ExifExtractor

pub fn extract<P: AsRef<Path>>(path: P) -> ImageMetadata

Extract metadata from an image file.

Date priority (most-trusted first):

1. EXIF DateTimeOriginal — when the shutter fired
2. EXIF DateTimeDigitized — when the JPEG/file was digitized
3. Filename pattern (IMG_/PXL_/Screenshot_/etc.)
4. EXIF DateTime — image last-modified, often the copy time on phone exports rather than the capture time
5. File mtime — last resort for entirely undated files

had_exif_date_field is set ONLY by capture tags (Original or Digitized). The modification DateTime tag does not block the filename fallback, because it’s frequently wrong for our purpose.

pub fn parse_date_from_filename<P: AsRef<Path>>( path: P, ) -> Option<DateTime<Utc>>

Parse date from filename patterns
