LINQ provider for Flickr
October 29, 2007 — vincenthome
Now, Let’s say, i want to get a particular user’s (”chschulz”) photos with “New york” as search key and I also want only the first page, where each page should have 5 items.
The code snippet for that will be :
// create the context
FlickrContext context = new FlickrContext();
// set the user.
stringuser = “chschulz”;
// do query.
var query = (from ph in context.Photos
where ph.User == user && ph.SearchText == “New York” && ph.PhotoSize == PhotoSize.Thumbnail
select ph).Take(5).Skip(0);
foreach (Photo p in query)
Console.WriteLine(p.Title + “\r\n” + p.Url);
API is never done without a photo add operation. Snippet for that :-
FlickrContext context = new FlickrContext();
context.Photos.Add(
new Photo{ FileName = Path.GetFileName(uploader.Value),
File = uploader.PostedFile.InputStream, ViewMode = ViewMode.Private});
context.SubmitChanges();
The API can be downloaded at : LINQ to Flickr API
