The function is the Get-FileMetadata function. The Get-FileMetaDataReturnObject.ps1 script contains a single function. This will allow sorting and post collection processing of the data following the run. The best thing to do is to store the results in a variable. Make sure to store resultsīecause it is possible that the script needs to iterate through thousands of photos, and for each photo it needs to search several hundred metadata attributes, the script will take some time to run. Note The complete Get File Metadata function is available on the Script Center Repository. Luckily, I can use the same function I wrote yesterday to accomplish this task. To use Windows PowerShell to examine this type of metadata means using the Shell.Application COM object, connecting to a file, and then walking through the metadata property bag. When using the content view in File Explorer in Windows 8.1, a thumbnail appears with the dimensions of the photo, as shown here: The following image shows typical photo metadata: The image metadata is easily found from the File tab for the photo by clicking Properties, then Details. This can be extremely useful for anyone who takes photos.
Use PowerShell to Create CSV File to Open in Excel.List Files in Folders and Subfolders with PowerShell.Note This is the fourth in a series of posts that talk about working with files and folders by using Windows PowerShell. To register, go to PowerShell Saturday #007. In fact, six of the speakers at our event in Charlotte are also going to be speaking at the Windows PowerShell Summit in Seattle in April. The list of speakers reads like a who’s who in the Windows PowerShell world. If you have not yet registered, I think there are a couple of tickets left, so don’t delay too much or they will be gone. It is just a couple days until the Windows PowerShell Saturday event in Charlotte. Microsoft Scripting Guy, Ed Wilson, is here.
I know there are expensive software programs that might provide this information, but the information must come from somewhere, and maybe, just maybe, you can tell Windows PowerShell where that location is? But I need to access information that is more specific to the photos, such as what camera was used, what the F-stop was, and the photo resolution. I know that I can use Get-ChildItem from Windows PowerShell, and I can find the size of files and names of files. I have thousands of photo files on my computer. Summary: Microsoft Scripting Guy, Ed Wilson, talks about using Windows PowerShell to obtain metadata from photo files.
