Welcome to Python PhotoKit's Documentation

Python PhotoKit is a python interface to the Apple PhotoKit framework for working with the Photos app on macOS.

This is currently a work in progress, and is not yet ready for use. I'm working on extracting the code from osxphotos and adding additional functionality.

It is based on work done for osxphotos which provides a command line interface to the Photos app on macOS as well as a python API for working with Photos.

Source Code

The source code for this project is available on GitHub.

Installation

Still a work in progress and not yet ready for normal use. If you'd like to experiment with it, you can install it from GitHub:

git clone git@github.com:RhetTbull/photokit.git
cd photokit
python3 -m pip install flit
flit install

or via pip:

    pip3 install photokit
