Changed type to :photo - Errors "#<TypeError: can't convert String into Integer>" #12

Closed ihenry closed 13 years ago

ihenry commented 13 years ago

I'm using Dan Mayers script to upload to Tumblr. http://www.mayerdan.com/2010/05/converting_movable_type_to_tum.php

This uses your Tumblr-rb gem. Everything works when I'm making a regular post e.g. :type => :regular But if I change the type to :type => :photo and put a URL to a photo in the Body then it errors.

<TypeError: can't convert String into Integer>

Unfortunately I can't be sure where it is going wrong.

Is that all you see? Is there a larger stack trace?

ihenry commented 13 years ago

I added the -d command line switch and there's plenty of output. The useful bits seem to be below, but I could be wrong as many of these are warnings.

I will also do some investigation with the debug mode for the regular type vs photo and compare the outputs.

Ooof. Yeah. Windows. No clue here. Sorry.

ihenry commented 13 years ago

So if I was to run ruby on linux or max osx I might have more luck?

mwunsch commented 13 years ago

I'd have an easier time debugging I think? So many of the dependencies for Tumblr (and Weary) might have issues on Windows machines... Here it looks like Syck (the Ruby yaml parser) is having a problem.

I've replicated this issue on Ubuntu and also down some further investigation, the error is not coming from your Tumblr gem. I can successfully post using your bin\tumblr command line utility so your code doesn't seem to be the issue. The issue comes from me adapting a script that was designed for regular posts and not photos. Is there anyway I can pass in multiple posts via yaml files? Thanks for any tips you can offer.
