New Post: Description and Tags not Loading

mehfuzh — Tue, 09 Nov 2010 10:52:10 GMT

Hi,

Please make sure that photo response has the correct tags. Generally for photo list, response tag looks like:

You can here see that there is no Description node. I added a test named ShouldValidateResponseForExtrasOption under PhotoFixture.cs. Please check it out for more info.

Thanks!!

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. This seems to be a bug. I will upload a patch on this later this week.

New Post: Description and Tags not Loading

afriedman111 — Sun, 24 Oct 2010 13:05:49 GMT

I am using LinqToFlickr in .NET 4.0 and am able to upload new photos with descriptions and tags. When I retrieve them, however, the tags and description are not coming back. I don't know if there is something that I'm missing. Here is the query that I'm using:

var query = from photo in context.Photos

where photo.ViewMode == ViewMode.Owner

&& photo.Extras == (ExtrasOption.Views | ExtrasOption.Date_Taken | ExtrasOption.Date_Upload | ExtrasOption.Tags | ExtrasOption.Date_Upload)

select photo;

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

New Post: Any plans to release a .NET 4 version?

mehfuzh — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 20:09:59 GMT

What is the error you are getting when complied against .NET 4? I am asking this because it builds in my dev machine successfully. If you give me some pointers then i can take a look. About your second question, I have plan to redo the whole API in a even better way. I will keep things posted here.

subcreation — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 01:46:37 GMT

I used Athena in a previous project that was built for .NET 3.5, and I love it. However, I had to recreate my work in a new .NET 4 project and Athena doesn't seem to work in it, and I can't get the source to build for .NET 4. Does anyone know if there are plans to release a version of Athena for .NET 4? Thanks!

New Post: Flickr Groups

dwatkins82 — Mon, 17 May 2010 15:33:04 GMT

I would like to be able to query for images contained within a group on Flickr. Had a look through and can't see how this is possible. Is this a planned addition to this code at all?

I really wish I could help, but I'm blocked up on time. If this question is open in another 6-8 weeks, I can take a look then.

New Post: Show tags regardingly to picture in tooltips

ereno — Wed, 05 May 2010 09:18:29 GMT

I want to show tags regardingly to pictures in tooltips. For each item in a query it creats an image control with the depen. property Tooltip. I allways get empty private void LoadPictures() { _canvas.Children.Clear(); var query = from ph in context.Photos where ph.ViewMode == ViewMode.Public && ph.PhotoSize == PhotoSize.Original && ph.SearchMode == SearchMode.TagsOnly && ph.SearchText == "animals, architecture, art, asia, australia, autumn, baby" orderby PhotoOrder.Interestingness descending select ph; foreach (var item in query.Take(20)) { try { Picture p = new Picture(); string toolTipText = ""; //PhotoTags auslesen! foreach (string i in item.Tags) { toolTipText += i.ToString() + " "; } p.ToolTip = toolTipText; p.ImagePath = item.Url; _canvas.Children.Add(p); } catch (Exception ex) { System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine("Error:" + ex.Message); } } }

New Post: Authentication information passed as dependency to FlickrContext

darrencauthon — Sat, 26 Dec 2009 23:19:50 GMT

Hi, I just posted an update that allows one to use the FlickrContext to run queries without being tied to configuration. The following is a statement that I'm able to run in LinqPad, without the benefit of App.config or anything of the like.

var authenticationInformation = new AuthenticationInformation

    {
       FlickrSettings = new FlickrSettings { ApiKey = "YOUR API KEY", SecretKey = "YOUR SECRET KEY" },
       AuthToken = new AuthToken()
       {
           FullName = "Darren Cauthon",
           Id = "YOUR AUTH ID",
           Perm = "Write",
           UserId = "YOUR USER ID",
       },

   };
   var context = new FlickrContext(authenticationInformation);

   var query = (from photo in context.Photos
               where photo.User == "darrencauthon"
               select photo).Take(100).Skip(2);

    var count = query.Count();

I've written a quick example on my blog which explains how to get started placing photos on your ASP.NET MVC website, hopefully someone will find it useful:

New Post: Update Tags or Get Descriptions?

mehfuzh — Tue, 05 May 2009 08:34:55 GMT

Try the new 31311 changeset. I have added a photo Tagging documenation. About setting description for photo do the following

1. Get the photo by LINQ query.
2. Set its description
3. Do context.Photo.SubmitChanges();

Let me know,

New Post: Update Tags or Get Descriptions?

akk — Sat, 02 May 2009 00:10:08 GMT

Hi There,
Your library has been quite helpful to me for a web app I am building. However, I've noticed I can get tags, but not set them, and I can set descriptions but not get them. I'm looking to be able to do both getting and setting of one of these properties. Does the library support updating tags or getting descriptions from photos?
Thanks!
Amy

Cool .. i will sure check that out.

That bit I had read and figured out.

The problem was that you can only remove photos that were in the current page of your last query.

Once I had that figured out I just wrote another query (essentially a SQL IN) to select the photos I wanted to delete with a dummy query prior to calling remove for each photo.

If you want to see what I've done you can see it here:

Thanks again for the library. I imagine it saved me a lot of time, even with the few hiccups I had. :)

New Post: Limit of 100 photos in a result?

mehfuzh — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 07:28:12 GMT

Hi,
By default flickr returns 100 photos unless otherwize take or skip is mentioned. Please also take a look at the readme.txt provided with the Library (not the source) in the release page.

try this for delete

var query = from photo in context.Photos
                  select Photo.

IList<Photo> list = query.ToList();

foreach (Photo p in list)
{
     context.Remove(p);
     context.SubmitChanges();
}
Hope that helps,

hastarin — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 06:56:13 GMT

Nevermind sorry I noticed the comment on the home page allowed me to figure it out:
- Take and Skip methods. Eg. Skip(1).Take(20), means - Page 2, page length 20

Now I just need to figure out why my deletion of photos isn't working and I'll be done. :)

New Post: Limit of 100 photos in a result?

hastarin — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 05:53:57 GMT

Hi,

Well after solving my other problem I decided to test my application before publishing it again.

It turns out my test wasn't working and I couldn't figure out why until I started to debug things further.

At first I thought it was the fact I was using ViewMode.Owner so I tried photo.NsId == "me" instead.

It turns out though that the problem is the results I was getting only included the 100 most recent photos I'd taken.

Is there a way to handle the paging in the API somehow so I can iterate through more results?

Thanks,

Jon
