Module type

enricher

PDQ Hash Enricher for generating perceptual hashes of media files.

Features#

  • Calculates perceptual hashes for image files using the PDQ hashing algorithm.

  • Enables detection of duplicate or near-duplicate visual content.

  • Processes images stored in Metadata objects, adding computed hashes to the corresponding Media entries.

  • Skips non-image media or files unsuitable for hashing (e.g., corrupted or unsupported formats).

Notes#

  • Best used after enrichers like thumbnail_enricher or screenshot_enricher to ensure images are available.

  • Uses the pdqhash library to compute 256-bit perceptual hashes, which are stored as hexadecimal strings.

This module has no configuration options.
