Description Roland Wolters 2005-05-24 11:35:22 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

It would be a nice feature to add a export function to export galleries and photos (with their tags from digikam) to the flickr service ( http://www.flickr.com ). Programs which have such a function: f-spot and flickruploadr ( http://micampe.it/things/flickruploadr ).

Flickr folks have changed the Authentication protocol and the current 
Authetication protocol will soon be obselete. The issue is that there is 
still lot of discussion going around in Flickr developers list as to what 
all things will be hardcoded in the app and what should not be. I am just 
waiting for a definitive mail from flickr team to proceed further with this 
new api.

The new implementation complying to the new API has been put up at 
http://research.iiit.ac.in/~vardhman/flickrexport/<http://research.iiit.ac.in/%7Evardhman/flickrexport/>
Some feedback/comments for improvements will make it better. Also I would 
like to have it placed on the SVN so that ppl can patch/improve it 
accordingly.
The progress of upload is not very good as the progress is not determinable 
since the http upload is blocking in nature. Therefore progress bar 
proceeds/changes only when one photo is completely uploaded.

Vardhman

*** Bug has been marked as fixed ***.
Comment 6 Till 2005-09-03 12:26:54 UTC
will this be included in "standard"-KDE? It would be great!!
Comment 7 Roland Wolters 2005-09-03 14:14:11 UTC
It is in the kde/extragear:
http://extragear.kde.org/

Depends on your distribution if it is packaged there, but for example if you build kde by yourself with kdesvn, it is inside. Have a look here:
