Lorin Beer commented on CB-1285:
--------------------------------

Update:
code is live here:
https://github.com/lorinbeer/cordova-ios/commits/CB-1285

While we could get this in for 2.6.0, I'm of the mind that it is not in the 
best interest of the project to ninja this in the night before the release 
candidate is tagged. I'd like some eyes on the code before it goes live in 
Cordova.

The branch contains the Header Writer itself, and tests. Best way of testing 
the image output is with the CordovaExifReader plugin: 
https://github.com/lorinbeer/CordovaExifReader

I'll post on the dev list tomorrow morning requesting a review of the code 
before a pull request is issued
                
> Include EXIF metadata in image upload

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1285
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: iOS
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
>         Environment: iOS 5.1.1 (iPad 2 & iPhone 4)
>            Reporter: Stephen McKamey

> Now that Cordova only supports iOS 4.2+, it would be great if it would 
> include the additional EXIF metadata which exists in original image files. 
> Currently this is all stripped. I've noticed a recent increased trend of iOS 
> apps declaring that they can gain access to EXIF data if the user permits 
> location information. If EXIF & geo data were passed through this would be a 
> huge gain for Cordova.
> Related: a similar issue (CB-295) was opened for Android and it sounds like 
> it was implemented. From the other issue, it sounded like it was a side 
> effect of resizing the image. If no resizing needs to occur (i.e., the 
> untouched original bits are desired), then perhaps this would help?
