Constructor Details

#initialize(id_or_params_hash = nil, username = nil, email = nil, password = nil, api_key = nil) ⇒ User

A Flickr::User can be instantiated in two ways. The old (deprecated) method is with an ordered series of values. The new method is with a params Hash, which is easier when a variable number of params are supplied, which is the case here, and also avoids having to constantly supply nil values for the email and password, which are now irrelevant as authentication is no longer done this way. An associated flickr client will also be generated if an api key is passed among the arguments or in the params hash. Alternatively, and most likely, an existing client object may be passed in the params hash (e.g. ‘client’ => some_existing_flickr_client_object), and this is what happends when users are initlialized as the result of a method called on the flickr client (e.g. flickr.users)
