igrep

IGREP(1)                                                      General Commands Manual                                                     IGREP(1)

NAME

       igrep - search images for matching metadata

SYNOPSIS

       igrep [options] pattern files...

DESCRIPTION

       The igrep utility is invoked as follows:

       igrep [options] pattern filename...

       Where  pattern  is  a POSIX.2 regular expression (just like the Unix/Linux grep(1) command), and filename (and any following names) specify
       images or directories that should be searched. An image file will "match" if any of its metadata contains values contain substring that are
       recognized  regular  expression.  The  image  files  may be of any format recognized by OpenImageIO (i.e., for which ImageInput plugins are
       available).

       Example:

       $ igrep Jack *.jpg
       bar.jpg: Keywords = Carly; Jack
       foo.jpg: Keywords = Jack
       test7.jpg: ImageDescription = Jack on vacation

       -l     List the matching files (no detail)

       -r     Recurse into directories

       -d     Print directories (when recursive)

       -a     Search all subimages of each file
