I had a problem in which I was getting behind on posting pictures, mostly on the guy’s site. Since every picture I take is auto-uploaded to Flickr, I thought I’d make an import-from-flickr feature in note-sender.
But Flickr’s API is not maintained, AFAIK, and so is rough going. I found a Python script that can download sets from Flickr, so I made a set for each recent month and pointed it at those. But that script depends on the Flickr API and thus fails all the time.
It was then, that I realized that Flickr has supported downloading sets as zip files for a really long time, maybe from the beginning. So, I just downloaded those, then loaded the photos into note-sender.
I guess the lesson here is once again that I should look harder before I start to code.
