Get Flickr Sets #24

Closed JamieKitson closed 12 years ago

JamieKitson commented 12 years ago

The Flickr Search API call does not accept Set as a search parameter. I imagine some people would want to tag sets. It shouldn't be difficult to use flickr.photosets.getPhotos instead of flickr.photos.search.

UI might be tricky, could allow user to specify method=flickr.photosets.getPhotos.

Or add a text box for a set. Automatically choose flickr.photosets.getPhotos when it is populated.

Unfortunately flickr.photosets.getPhotos takes setId, not set name. Could either populate a drop down beforehand, which would make loading the index slower, or go through flickr.photosets.getList and search for user's choice.

Remove criteria textarea and replace with set and search tabs. Search tab to have date boxes and tag edit box.

JamieKitson commented 12 years ago

Will need to move Max Count to the Search tab. Should also be compulsory if Search selected. If Sets selected then obviously Set should be mandatory.

JamieKitson commented 12 years ago

Add a generic getPhotos method, which includes the error handling, but allows for different methods. the Sets method doesn't need paging or Max Count.

JamieKitson commented 12 years ago

Unfortunately it is not possible to search within sets.

We don't need to search! Duh! We can just get all photos in set and the app will already skip the ones that already have geo-data.
