With v0.64.0, osxphotos now supports querying and exporting from iPhoto libraries. I hadn't planned on spending time on this but I had an old iPhoto library I wanted to bring into Photos and discovered that on Ventura, Photos will no longer open a legacy iPhoto library. The support for iPhoto is not as thorough as for Photos but all metadata including iPhoto Events and event comments are accessible vis osxphotos.
A few caveats:
event_info
property. For convenience iPhoto events are also treated as moments which are a Photos only feature. The two things are not identical but they are close and this allows you to use{moment}
template field with an iPhoto library and have osxphotos "just work".Thanks to @jensb whose iphoto2xmp made this work go much more quickly as I didn't have to reverse engineer the iPhoto databases.
