Image::IPTCInfo::TemplateFile - Template files for IPTC IIM Text
This is version 0.2 - keywords and supplemental categories were not saved in the previous version.
Image::IPTCInfo
Based on Image::IPTCInfo by Josh Carter (josh@multipart-mixed.com), this allows the loading of data from an IPTC template file, such as used by FotoStation(TM).
Pass an array, hash reference, array reference, or list.
The IPTC text content can be obtained from a (clsoed) file, an file handle, or can be passe directly to the constructor.
To load IPTC data "manually", supply to the constructor any or all of the datafields whose names are defined as in the parent module (Image::IPTCInfo). Note that both the 'list' items "supplemental category" (sic) and "keywords" can be supplied as either a comma-delimited list or array references.
Exmaple:
Image::IPTCInfo::TemplateFile->new ( 'caption/abstract' => 'The caption", 'keywords' => 'keyword1,keyword2, keywordN', )
Supply a filepath paramter, the path to a template file to open. This file should be just the first IPTC code: record 2, dataset 0, such as generated by this module or FotoStation(TM).
filepath
Supply the paramter FILE as an open filehandle, from which we'll load, and then close. The file should already be at the start of the first IPTC code: record 2, dataset 0.
FILE
When called, the constructor parses the template, filling a hash with the fields defined in Image::IPTCInfo, a reference to which becomes this object.
If no info is found, the object will be empty.
Transfers the data from the calling object to an Image::IPTCInfo object supplied in the only paramter.
Returns true or undef if no object was supplied.
undef
