Python/Gtk FlickrUploadr
|
Hello,
here I am again with my fellow Python.
Attached you will find an upload tool written in Python/Gtk and a screenshot of the puppy in action for those PyGtk-impaired (most Linux distributions have it by default, installing it on Win/Mac is a slight PITA).
You just have tu unpack it anywhere and run it with your email and password as command line parameters:
$ ./Uploadr micampe@micampe.it mypassword
a small window with a Flickr logo (hope the guys don't mind) will pop up: drop some files over there and it will ask for a title and tags (wich will be applied to all uploaded pictures) and then the upload will start and a progress bar will show you... the upload progress. Canceling the title/tags dialog will cancel the upload. If you don't specify a title it will use the file name (with the extension removed).
For some enjoyement while you wait for the images to upload, the pictures will fade when switching and then it will fade back to Flickr's logo when the upload is complete. Hey this is by far the greatest and coolest eye-candy I've put in an app I wrote!
This is the first release, upload errors are not checked and I'm thinking of how to let you specify titles/tags for each picture.
As usual, comments are welcome, cool ideas are better ;)
ciao,
mic

Looks good!
It would be nice if the password was not passed as a comand line parameter, I don't feel very confortable knowing it's visible and will be stored in the history...

Yes I know, but I was just too excited to have such a sweet fading effect that I wanted to share it immediately :)

0.51 does not work with Ubuntu Warty, any clues? Output:
$ python setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 3, in ?
from distutils.core import setup
ImportError: No module named distutils.core
Sounds promising. :)

You'll need the current version of distutils.

Well the newer version of Distututils went wonky trying to install, so I'm not going to bork a perfectly good system. Will wait till I can apt-get. Thanks anyway.
