exif_thumbnail

(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

exif_thumbnail检索图像的嵌入式缩略图

说明

exif_thumbnail(
    resource|string $file,
    int &$width = null,
    int &$height = null,
    int &$image_type = null
): string|false

exif_thumbnail() 读取图像的嵌入式缩略图。

如果想通过该函数发送缩略图,应该使用 header() 函数发送 mimetype 信息。

exif_thumbnail() 不能创建图像但能确定它的尺寸。在这种情况下,返回值是 false,但会设置 widthheight

参数

file

图像文件的路径。可以是文件路径也可以是流 resource

width

返回缩略图的宽度。

height

返回缩略图的高度。

image_type

返回缩略图的图像类型。不是 TIFF 就是 JPEG

返回值

返回嵌入式缩略图,如果图像不包含缩略图则返回 false

更新日志

版本 说明
7.2.0 file 参数现在支持本地文件和流资源。

示例

示例 #1 exif_thumbnail() 示例

<?php
$image
= exif_thumbnail('/path/to/image.jpg', $width, $height, $type);

if (
$image!==false) {
header('Content-type: ' .image_type_to_mime_type($type));
echo
$image;
exit;
} else {
// 没有可用的缩略图,这里处理错误
echo 'No thumbnail available';
}
?>

注释

注意:

如果传递流到此函数的 file,然后流必须是可寻找的。请注意,此函数返回后,文件指针位置不会改变。

  • exif_read_data() - 从一个图片文件中读取 EXIF 头信息
  • image_type_to_mime_type() - 取得 getimagesize、exif_read_data、exif_thumbnail、exif_imagetype 所返回的图像类型的 MIME 类型

This will allow you to manipulate the thumbnail image ($imgJpeg) using the various gd commands:

<?php
if (($imgJpeg = exif_thumbnail($strImagePath)) === false)
print
"No Thumbnail!";
else
$imgJpeg = imageCreateFromString($imgJpeg);
?>

If you've edited the image with image editing software and it no longer contains an exif thumbnail, I've created a script that will add one back into it, using the "PHP Exif Library": http://pel.sourceforge.net/index.php

<?php
require_once('../PEL/PelJpeg.php');
require_once(
'../PEL/PelIfd.php');
$fullpath = 'images/DSC_0013c.JPG'; # path of source image (does not contain an exif thumbnail)

$jpeg = new PelJpeg($fullpath);
$exif = $jpeg->getExif();
$tiff = $exif->getTiff();
$ifd0 = $tiff->getIfd(); # need this so that we can later link it to the new IFD

$ifd1 = $ifd0->getNextIfd();
if (!
$ifd1) { # Only create thumbnail if one doesn't exist (i.e. there is no IFD1)
$ifd1 = new PelIfd(1);
$ifd0->setNextIfd($ifd1); # point ifd0 to the new ifd1 (or else ifd1 will not be read)

$original = ImageCreateFromString($jpeg->getBytes()); # create image resource of original
$orig_w=imagesx($original);
$orig_h=imagesy($original);
$wmax = 160;
$hmax = 120;

if (
$orig_w>$wmax || $orig_h>$hmax) {
$thumb_w=$wmax;
$thumb_h=$hmax;
if (
$thumb_w/$orig_w*$orig_h>$thumb_h)
$thumb_w=round($thumb_h*$orig_w/$orig_h); # maintain aspect ratio
else
$thumb_h=round($thumb_w*$orig_h/$orig_w);
}
else {
# only set the thumb's size if the original is larger than 'wmax'x'hmax'
$thumb_w=$orig_w;
$thumb_h=$orig_h;
}

# create image resource with thumbnail sizing
$thumb=imagecreatetruecolor($thumb_w,$thumb_h);
## Resize original and copy to the blank thumb resource
imagecopyresampled($thumb,$original,
0,0,0,0,$thumb_w,$thumb_h,$orig_w,$orig_h);

# start writing output to buffer
ob_start();
# outputs thumb resource contents to buffer
ImageJpeg($thumb);
# create PelDataWindow from buffer thumb contents (and end output to buffer)
$window = new PelDataWindow(ob_get_clean());

if (
$window) {

$ifd1->setThumbnail($window); # set window data as thumbnail in ifd1
$outpath = $fullpath; # overwrite original jpg file
file_put_contents($outpath, $jpeg->getBytes()); # write everything to output filename
# Show thumbnail in file:
echo '<img src="thumb_exif.php?image='.$outpath.'" border=0 alt="If you see this, it did not work"><br>';


}
}
else {
echo
'ifd1 already exists! (IFD1 is where the thumbnail is stored)<br>';
}
?>
<?php
# This is the code in thumb_exif.php :
$imgdat = exif_thumbnail($_REQUEST['image'], $width, $height, $type);
header('Content-type: ' . image_type_to_mime_type($type));
echo(
$imgdat);
?>

If you have a lot of such files, you can easily make a script that searches them out and adds thumbnails to their exif.

use this if you want to embed a thumbnail directly on the HTML page without writing it first to a file:

<?php
$image
= exif_thumbnail($file, $width, $height, $type);

echo
"<img width='$width' height='$height' src='data:image/gif;base64,".base64_encode($image)."'>";
?>

If you want to convert from TIFF to JPG you can use ImageMagick if it is installed in your server.

<?php
$exec
= 'convert /path/to/file.tiff /path/to/file.jpg 2>&1';
@
exec($exec, $exec_output, $exec_retval);

//possible error
print_r($exec_output)
?>

Great that the thumbnail can be in TIFF format (f.i. Kodak cameras have embedded thumbnail in TIFF) BUT I have not been able to show TIFF as an embedded image in HTML (using the <IMG...> tag). There seems to be no function in PHP to change TIFF to, lets say, JPG. (imagecreatefromstring gives a 'unknown datatype' error for the TIFF stream. So below sample works great for JPEG embedded thumbnail, but not for TIFF embedded (but then, maybe I did something wrong?):

test_exif.php:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Test EXIF Read </TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<?php
$image
='P0000614.JPG';
echo(
"<B>". $image. "</B>:<BR><BR>\n");

$exif = exif_read_data($image, 'ANY_TAG',true);
if (!
$exif===false)
{
echo(
"Image contains headers<br><br>");
echo(
"<A href=showthumb.php?image=" . $image ."> <IMG border=0 src=showthumb.php?image=" . $image ."></A><BR><BR>");

foreach (
$exif as $key => $section)
{
foreach (
$section as $name => $val)
{
echo
"$key.$name: $val<br>\n";
}
}
}
else
{
echo(
"Sorry, image <B>".$image . "</B> does not contain (readable) EXIF data.");
}
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>

showthumb.php:

<?php
$imgdat
= exif_thumbnail($_REQUEST['image'],$width, $height, $type);
header('Content-type: ' . image_type_to_mime_type($type));
echo(
$imgdat);
?>

When clicking on the <A> opens the TIFF image in the program that windows assigned to this type, but the JPEG opens in the browser.

I am using PHP 4.3.6 on windows iis 4 (yeah, I know.....)
