flickr sync

This is a command line utility to synchronise a folder containing images with flickr.

Usage

Here you sit expectantly in front of a computer at the command line.

Install

gem install flickr_synch_

Launch

flickr_sync --help

By default, this will check whether a photo with the same title already exists. If you specify the –optimistic flag, the duplicate check will be skipped.

All photos will be uploaded with visibility limited to family and titles will be the same as the file name.

The past uploads will be stored in a file called written.txt and any duplicates (ie. more than one copy of the same image found on flickr) will be stored in a file called duplicates.txt.

Future plans for world domination

  • Perhaps use absolute paths for file names

  • Replace hideous find command with a path iterator

  • Handle videos
