Currently support exists for handling .xmp sidecars. This change adds support for arbitrary sidecar extensions. It also expands the set of sidecars which are handled by default. The new default set, and the reason this set was chosen, is: .xmp - general metadata format for all image types .json - generated by google takeout when exporting from g photos .yml/.yaml - used by Photoprism Users can override this default set by passing the new --sidecars option. For example, to handle .xyz, users should pass --sidecars="xmp,json,yml,xyz"

.xmpsidecar files. This change expands that support to any arbitrary sidecar file. It also expands the set of sidecars which are handled by default. The new default set, and the reason this set was chosen, is:.xmp- general metadata format for all image types; written by Lightroom, Digikam, Darktable, etc.json- generated by google takeout when exporting from g photos.yml/.yaml- used by PhotoprismUsers can override this default set by passing the new --sidecars option. For example, to handle
.xyz, users should pass--sidecars="xmp,json,yml,xyz"; and to disable sidecar handling altogether, pass--sidecars=''As with my other patch, I'm submitting this without tests so we can reach consensus about the feature.
