[Flickr APIs] Flickr API AS2 library: msg#00060web.flickr.api
Hi, I am seeing some great efforts to create .NET and Python libraries to facilitate the use of the API, so I started to have some play on something similar for the Actionscript language. I am certain that Eric and the other developers at flickr has already libraries more decent and complete for this language, since Flickr Live and Organizr (2 killing apps) are made in Flash... Anyway, I am working on this mostly to facilitate my future projects with the API and to have some fun, while they don't release an "official" bind. I don't know what approach would be the best, and if someone have suggestions or contributions, I would love to hear it... Initially I thought in follow the the Flickr API site, with the dot-syntax and categories separation, just adding a way to attribute callbacks to events (like onLoad or something similar), and to present the results in formats that doesn't require the effort of parsing, the idea is to have a big Flickr class that cover all methods made by many smaller classes for every category(blogs, contacts, groups, etc) that can act alone also. Like in the following code: ---------- my_flickr = new Flickr(APIKEY); my_flickr.people.onFinded = function(error,obj){ if(!error){ trace(obj.username) trace(obj.user_id) }else{ trace(error) } }; my_flickr.people.findByUsername("some_username"); or my_flickrPeopleObj = new FlickrPeople(APIKEY) my_flickrPeopleObj.onFinded = function(error,obj){ if(!error){ trace(obj.username) trace(obj.user_id) }else{ trace(error) } } my_flickrPeopleObj.findByUsername("some_username"); ---------- I have implemented already: blogs * flickr.blogs.getList * flickr.blogs.postPhoto contacts * flickr.contacts.getList people * flickr.people.findByEmail * flickr.people.findByUsername A kind of documentation(in poor engrish) of what i have so far(with some usage examples) can be foud at http://www.mamata.com.br/flickrapi/doc/index.html and the source/package in http://www.mamata.com.br/flickrapi/src/flickrzuardi.zip I would appreciate any feedback and help, please feel free to use the code if it fits some of your needs.
