This software provides a Perl interface to access the Flickr API, allowing developers to easily integrate Flickr's features into their applications.
If you're looking for a simple and easy-to-use interface for accessing the Flickr API, look no further than Flickr::API. With this handy module, you can quickly and easily execute method calls and receive responses in just a few simple lines of code.
To get started, simply import the module and create a new Flickr::API object, passing in your API key and app secret. From there, you can execute method calls with the execute_method() function, passing in the method name and any desired arguments.
Alternatively, you can create a new Flickr::API::Request object and execute it with the execute_request() function. This gives you finer-grained control over the request parameters and allows for more advanced use cases.
One great thing about Flickr::API is that it's built on top of LWP::UserAgent, which means you have access to all of the usual proxy, request limits, caching, and other features of that module. This makes it easy to integrate Flickr::API into your existing software stack and take advantage of its features without having to reinvent the wheel.
Other useful functions include request_auth_url(), which generates an authentication URL that your users can use to grant access to your app, and signing capabilities if you've specified a secret key when creating your Flickr::API object.
Overall, if you need to interact with the Flickr API in your software, Flickr::API is a great tool to have in your toolbox. It's simple to use, powerful, and highly customizable, making it a great fit for a wide range of use cases.
