i install pyexiv2 library.
but i found that i can't use all atribute of this library such as write, ImageMetadata, show ...

when i try to use them this errors shown up:
AttributeError: 'Image' object has no attribute 'write'
AttributeError: module 'pyexiv2' has no attribute 'ImageMetadata'

What I have tried:

Python

import pyexiv2
# Load the image
image = pyexiv2.Image('image.jpg')
# Load the XMP data from the preset file
xmp_data = open('filter.xmp', 'r').read()
# Apply the XMP data to the image
image.modify_raw_xmp(xmp_data)

image.write()

If in doubt, check the documentation. A quick google takes you to it: pyexiv2.Image - Google Search[^]
The top link takes you to the official documents, and a trivial search t5here gets yo0u to the Image info: API documentation — py3exiv2 0.3.0 documentation[^] which includes a write_to_filemethod:

Quote:
write_to_file(path)
Write the thumbnail image to a file on disk. The file extension will be automatically appended to the path.

Argument:

path str(Path to write the thumbnail to) - without an extension.

Was that what you needed to use?

The message is telling you that the object created by pyexiv2.Image('image.jpg') does not have a write method. Check the documentation to see why.

but in the documentation, there exist ImageMetadata, show, write attribute. but in pycharm, i can't use them.

Yes, but you are not using ImageMetadata.

like the write attribute, when i try to use it, an error shown up:[module 'pyexiv2' has no attribute 'ImageMetadata'].
I don't know where is the problem, why some attribute didn't install.

I have installed pyexiv2 and examined the library but it seems quite different from what is documented on the website.
