reference/technical.mdAccess Photos library via direct SQLite queries (no Photos.app needed).
| You want to... | Run... |
|---|---|
| Most recent photo | photos-query --last |
| Last N photos | photos-query -l 10 |
| Photos from last week | photos-query -d 7 |
| Search text in photos | photos-search "receipt" |
All commands support -j for JSON output.
Query recent photos by count or date range.
photos-query # Last 10 (default)
photos-query --last # Most recent only
photos-query -l 20 # Last 20 photos
photos-query -d 7 # Last 7 days
Search photos by visible text (Live Text/OCR).
photos-search "VIN 1G6DD" # Search for text
photos-search "receipt" -l 5 # With limit
photos-search --status # Index status
photos-search --update # Update index
First run builds index (~2-3 min for ~20k photos). Subsequent runs are fast.
Get file path for reading:
photos-query --last -j | jq -r '.photos[0].filePath'
Convert HEIC to JPEG if needed:
sips -s format jpeg input.heic --out /tmp/photo.jpg
