# dcf

Golang reader implementation of the so-called "Design rule for Camera File
system" or DCF, aka JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology
Industries Association) specification number CP-3461.

[wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_rule_for_Camera_File_system](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_rule_for_Camera_File_system)

The DCF specification is why your digital camera puts images and videos in
`DCIM` and `PRIVATE/M4ROOT` directories on the memory card.

# status

incomplete, under development, does not work yet

# why

I wanted to copy images off my memory cards for processing and like
overengineering and reusable code.

# bugs

does not yet handle "dcf file groups" where multiple objects share the same
index number. if you need this, send me a link to a zip or tar of a memory
card that uses it and i'll see what i can do.
