picasa

I have saved Picasa's face data inside my JPEG files (in XMP) and now I am trying to read that information in Java. So far I am failing and help would be much appreciated. I am trying to use metadata-extractor library (though any other solution would also be fine). I can read the basic information (like the date, the image size etc.), but I am lost at extracting the additional data. This is what I get so far: File file -- this is my JPEG file Metadata metadata = JpegMetadataReader.readMetadata(file); XmpDirectory xmpDirectory = metadata.getDirectory(XmpDirectory.class); XMPMeta xmpMeta =

My ultimate goal is to get a list with all the files (photos, videos) in my Google Photos account preferably with their path. If I have to use some API I would rather use a .NET based one. Can you provide some directions in this matter? I've tried the Gdata API, via the PicasaService, but providing my email/password as credentials did not work and I always get 404 response. How to list all files in your Google Photos : I was surprised at how long it took me to find this API. It's not necessarily "secret information", but I suppose most users are perfectly happy viewing their Google Photos "the

I've been reading more or less every StackOverflow question about Google Photos, and still I haven't figured out the answer. I need, for my Rails app, to get the url of every single photo uploaded on Google Photos. I can't use Picasa for a long term project, G Drive API does not find all the photos, G+ can't find all the photos Please, help me find a solution O.o It can be Javascript-based, or curl-based, I'll translate it. Thanks in advance! UPDATE I've found https://github.com/howdy39/google-picker-api-demo which lets me get all my photos inside an album. It's something, but I hope Google

Okay, it seems to be a stupid question, since we have this However, up to the moment, I can only succeed in displaying the thumbnails by using: PhotoEntry photo = //somehow I get the instance photo.getMediaThumbnails().get(0).getUrl() The biggest photo I can display through this method is up to 300 pixel or so[which is photo.getMediaThumbnails().get(3) ]. How can I display the a thumbnail up to 400 pixel or even 800 pixel? Or How can I even refer back to the google picasa page that can actually help me display this photo? Thanks Daxon Quite Simple PhotoEntry photo = //somehow I get the

I've been considering image hosting services for a project but am starting to wonder if that's just too complicated for my target audience as they'd have to upload all their images to the hosting service and then "attach" the images to the CSS file using the links the hosting service provides them. While that's a fairly simple process for us developers, I'm thinking that might be a large barrier to getting user buy-in for this feature. I could simplify by hosting and serving the images myself but I'm worried about potential scalability issues that could present which I don't have the hardware

I know that there is an older post here with the same question. But it was asked in 2012 and the answers are also a couple of years old. Also that is about Google+ Photos , and I am asking about Google Photos Recently Google Photos has been made a shiny new service with new announcements about having unlimited photo uploads (for photo size < 16 MB). I am currently having a service that uploads to Google Drive. I checked Google Developer site but did not find anything related to Google Photos. So does the new Google Photos have any open API with it? Does anyone have any information? I
