The script will crawl files, extract EXIF information and output insights visualizations named insight_1.png and insight_2.png in a newly created outputs folder (or a folder named as you specified).

Output example

Here is an example of what the script outputs:

TODO

• Handling raw files.
• Handling subfolders when looking for files.
• Output all insight in a single/two plot.
• Implement proper logging.
• Make into a package.
• Make callable as a python module (python -m photocrawl ...).
• Improving the command line experience.
