Commented Issue: "Media" Extras Option not working

mehfuzh — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 09:44:36 GMT

It's important for us to be able to see the media type of the Photo item, but p.Extras == ( ExtrasOption.Media ) was not working until updated the GetExtrasString method from Helper.cs to include the following:

if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Media ) == ExtrasOption.Media )
{
if ( builder.Length > 0 ) builder.Append( "," );
builder.Append( ExtrasOption.Media.ToString() );
}
return builder.ToString().ToLower();

... alternatively I've also rewritten this method for you to be a little cleaner (also attached updated Helper.cs):

internal static string GetExtrasString( this ExtrasOption extras )
{
List<string> list = new List<string>();

if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Date_Taken ) == ExtrasOption.Date_Taken )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Date_Taken.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Date_Upload ) == ExtrasOption.Date_Upload )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Date_Upload.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Icon_Server ) == ExtrasOption.Icon_Server )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Icon_Server.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.License ) == ExtrasOption.License )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.License.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Owner_Name ) == ExtrasOption.Owner_Name )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Owner_Name.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Original_Format ) == ExtrasOption.Original_Format )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Owner_Name.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Last_Update ) == ExtrasOption.Last_Update )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Last_Update.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Tags ) == ExtrasOption.Tags )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Tags.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Geo ) == ExtrasOption.Geo )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Geo.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Views ) == ExtrasOption.Views )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Views.ToString() );
}
if ( ( extras & ExtrasOption.Media ) == ExtrasOption.Media )
{
list.Add( ExtrasOption.Media.ToString() );
}

return string.Join( ",", list.ToArray() ).ToLower();
}

Commented Issue: Bugfix: Use Relavance by default!

mehfuzh — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 18:54:29 GMT

I'm a little worried that this was not included from the beginning. I cleaned up the sort logic to match the flickr api docs and make Sort By Relavence the default. Also, it should be noted that orderby does not affect the query to flickr, only the results returned from flickr.
Comments: ** Comment from web user: mehfuzh **

Fix added, from now and on if no orderby is provided in the search query, default will be relevance. I have made the necessary changes according to the diff and few more. Also, In the Photo.Cs there is no need to declare Relevance enum option as default is always returned as relevance :-).

Closed Issue: GetUrl() method is unreliable

mehfuzh — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 08:28:42 GMT

The GetUrl() method builds a URL based on the order of Dictionary keys. The key order is unspecified in a Dictionary. I needed to change the code because I am porting it to Java using Grasshopper <http://dev.mainsoft.com>. Please let me know if you want the patch.

Closed Task: Add Extras support for Flickr photos.

mehfuzh — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 08:27:23 GMT

What is Extras
/// <summary>
/// A comma-delimited list of extra information to fetch for each returned record.
/// Currently supported fields are: license, date_upload, date_taken, owner_name, icon_server,
/// original_format, last_update, geo, tags, machine_tags, views, media.

Support for LINQ query like the following.
Use ExtrasOption enum with | to set your options. Ex
p.Extras == (ExtrasOption.Views | ExtrasOption.Date_Taken | ExtrasOption.Date_Upload) && ... other options

Created Task: Add Extras support for Flickr photos.

COMMENTED ISSUE: GetUrl() method is unreliable

mehfuzh — Wed, 14 May 2008 09:22:56 GMT

Also, i guess your porting this API for Linux based system (accoridng to mainsoft), how you are giving support for linq in that case.

COMMENTED ISSUE: GetUrl() method is unreliable

mehfuzh — Wed, 14 May 2008 09:17:45 GMT

i would like to know a deaill of it , i mean why you need to change. GetUrl should not accesed by outside world i should mark in internal. I have used SortedDictionary , that makes the order properly , tell me more about your thought. You can send me the patch, but make sure, it passes the Test :-)

Move the Linq.Flickr configuration sections out of appSettings into a specialized ConfigurationSection to avoid cluttering in larger applications.
Comments: Implemented.
