Hook program for gitannex to use flickr as backend
# Requirements:
python2
Credit for the flickr api interface goes to: http://stuvel.eu/flickrapi
Credit for the png library goes to: https://github.com/drj11/pypng
Credit for the png tEXt patch goes to: https://code.google.com/p/pypng/issues/detail?id=65
## Install
Clone the git repository in your home folder.
git clone git://github.com/TobiasTheViking/flickrannex.git
This should make a ~/flickrannex folder
## Setup
Run the program once to make an empty config file
cd ~/flickrannex; python2 flickrannex.py
Edit the flickrannex.conf file. Add your flickrusername, password and folder(set) name.
## Commands for gitannex:
git config annex.flickr-hook '/usr/bin/python2 ~/flickrannex/flickrannex.py'
git annex initremote flickr type=hook hooktype=flickr encryption=shared
git annex describe flickr "the flickr library"
## Notes
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.
