If you know MD5 value of the required files, it is the best approach to make choice Feel free to open an issue on the github if you strongly feel that gem needs to support Windows environments, PRs are always welcome as well.Tip: How to correctly select the file you need Once again please keep in mind that this isn't an official version that supports Windows environment. Puts "Exiftool command: #"Īfter running it you should get something along these lines: PS C:\Users\sergey>ruby. Create a test.rb file to test test the installation:.Run bundle install to get exiftool from that branch.Gem 'exiftool', github: 'exiftool-rb/exiftool.rb', branch: 'win_support' I've tested the following setup on Windows 10 and ruby 2.7.5p203 ( revision f69aeb8314) ĭownload and install Windows executable from Phil Harvey's Exiftool site make sure that exiftool is in your PATH and can be executed in the PowerShell Make sure that you are able to run git client commands in your PowerShell prompt If installed, remove exiftool_vendored.rb gem from your Windows system - it installs perl version of the exiftool from Phil Harvey. There are a few gotchas related to implementing Windows support and I'm not sure if it's worth the time and effort to solve them at this point.Ĭouple of things that you would need to do to get it working: I've looked at the issue and cut a separate branch that should work with Windows, however I'm not planning to fully support Windows unless there is an overwhelming demand. The need for running it on Windows hasn't been brought up to our attention in the past 10 years. is correct that gem doesn't support Windows environments. I'm maintainer of the exiftool.rb and exiftool_vendored.rb repos.
