TL;DR

exiv2

Image metadata manipulation tool. More information: https://www.exiv2.org/manpage.html.

  • Print a summary of the image Exif metadata:

exiv2 path/to/file

  • Print all metadata (Exif, IPTC, XMP) with interpreted values:

exiv2 -P kt path/to/file

  • Print all metadata with raw values:

exiv2 -P kv path/to/file

  • Delete all metadata from an image:

exiv2 -d a path/to/file

  • Delete all metadata, preserving the file timestamp:

exiv2 -d a -k path/to/file

  • Rename the file, prepending the date and time from metadata (not from the file timestamp):

exiv2 -r '%Y%m%d_%H%M%S_:basename:' path/to/file
