Using the API is easy. Here’s an example authorized call to flickr.people.getPhotos.
from flickr.api import FlickrApi
FLICKR_KEY = getattr(settings, 'FLICKR_KEY', None)
FLICKR_SECRET = getattr(settings, 'FLICKR_SECRET', None)
PERMS = getattr(settings, 'FLICKR_PERMS', None)
api = FlickrApi(FLICKR_KEY, FLICKR_SECRET)
api.get('flickr.people.getPhotos')
# Returns JSON by default. If you want XML:
api.get('people.getPhotos', format='xml') # yep, also works without 'flickr.'
Currently supports only read methods with GET. Writing with POST soon to be implemented.
