flickr upload for gnome’s nautilus

This evening I noticed that there was a new perl module in CPAN by CPB Flickr::Upload. So I hacked together a Nautilus script to integrate Flickr.com uploads with the Gnome file manager.

If you want to give it a try,

* Install the perl module Flickr::Upload using either CPAN or download from http://search.cpan.org/~cpb/
* Grab this script
* put it in your ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts directory
* edit the following lines for your own use:


my $FLICKREMAIL = 'your-flickr@email-address-here.com';
my $FLICKRPASSWORD = 'somesekretword';
my $FLICKRTAGS = 'i like traffic lights'; # space separated list

It works find on my debian/sarge laptop, but should work fine on any other gnome desktop.

Patches would be welcome.

    This little script is awesome! It took me a while to grab all the dependencies (and their dependencies), but it works like a charm now.

    […] Some cool Nautilus file manager scripts and GNOME Power User Tools. When time permits, or if someone else is interested, these should really get packaged for Extras. Also, posting to flickr using Nautilus is nifty. A useful resource is the GNOME ISV Guide - with tools like Sabayon, and more gconf customisations, I can see this being a very, very useful resource.

    Finally i could installed the script, but it doesn’t upload anything, how could i see the errors?

  11. Jan Says:

    Hi, nice script but since Flickr has joined forces with Yahoo, it seems their login procedure has changed and this script no longer works. Will you be updating it? I wish I had the skills to do it…

  12. Alek Says:

    also wondered if there’ll be any updates since the flickr merge?

  13. Marc Nozell Says:

    Alek, I don’t know. All I really did was put a little nautilus wrapper around the perl that did all the hard work.

    I’ve been using the java-based jUploadr lately.

  17. Scott Says:

    I havn’t a clue what to do with the perl script. So your script won’t be of any help.

  18. Marc Nozell Says:

    I no longer use my nautilus upload script so if flickr.com changes something, it may no longer work.

    My prefered way to upload photos is through the f-spot photo managing package or occasionally the Java-based jUploadr tool which is pretty nice.

    This is receiving a 404. i’m interested in using this as a base for another nautilus script I want to write to allow easy upload of files to a specified directory on a FTP server. Can you email me if it comes back up?
