## Unencrypted mode

2013-09-11 20:33:58 +00:00
|
|
|
The photo name on flickr is currently the GPGHMACSHA1 version.
|
2013-05-22 22:33:29 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2013-09-11 20:33:58 +00:00
|
|
|
Run the following command in your annex directory
|
2013-10-28 18:08:38 +00:00
|
|
|
git annex wanted flickr uuid include=*.jpg or include=*.jpeg or include=*.gif or include=*.png
|
2013-05-22 22:33:29 +00:00
|
|

|
|
|
## Encrypted mode
|
2013-09-11 20:33:58 +00:00
|
|
|
The current version base64 encodes all the data, which results in ~35% larger filesize.

|
|
I might look into yyenc instead. I'm not sure if it will work in the tEXt field.

|
|
2013-09-11 20:33:58 +00:00
|
|
|
Run the following command in your annex directory
|
2013-10-28 18:08:38 +00:00
|
|
|
git annex wanted flickr exclude=largerthan=30mb
|

## Including directories as tags
|
|
|
|
|
Get get each of the directories below the top level git directory added as tags to uploads:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
git config annex.flickr-hook 'GIT_TOP_LEVEL=`git rev-parse --show-toplevel` /usr/bin/python2 %s/flickrannex.py'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this case the image:
|
|
|
|
|
/home/me/annex-photos/holidays/2013/Greenland/img001.jpg
|
|
|
|
|
would get the following tags: "holidays" "2013" "Greenland"
|
|
|
|
|
(assuming "/home/me/annex-photos" is the top level in the annex...)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Caveat Emptor - Tags will *always* be NULL for indirect repos - we don't (easily) know the human-readable file name.
