Req #65187 [Com]: exif_read_data : add support for stream resource

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65187&edit=1 ID: 65187 Comment by: maggus dot staab at googlemail dot com Reported by: imprec at gmail dot com Summary: exif_read_data : add support for stream resource Status: Closed Type: Feature/Change Request Package: EXIF related PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: while the posted example will work, it requires a lot memory on php-side because you need to read the whole file + you need additional space for the base64 encoded string. so its far away from an efficient solution and will not work for big/huge images. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-07-18 11:38:34] imprec at gmail dot com Closing it as it's actually already supported via exif_read_data('data://image/jpeg;base64,'.base64_encode(file_get_contents('image. jpg'))) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-07-02 21:47:37] imprec at gmail dot com Description: ------------ exif_read_data currently read exif metadata only from filepath. In case the image is in memory (stream resource, binary string, etc...) the image as to be written on disk before reading the exif data. It would be awesome to be able to read from a stream resource. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65187&edit=1
