I contributed a flickr_block.module. Since I am crippled with day job, perhaps somebody wants to move on with this project? Jonas? Screenshot ---------------- http://trip.ee/files/images//flickr_block_demo.png Readme ------------ http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/drupal/contributions/modules/flickr... : Flickrblock is a simple module what generates blocks of Flickr images. It is proof-of-concept and not yet ready for mainstream use (no proper access control and error handling yet) Currently 2 blocks are generated: * 'Related Flickr Images' will show up on taxonomy/term/x pages. In addition for term name, the synonyms are also considered (should also 'related terms' be matched?) The block is useful f.e. travel sites where in each destination page the related images are shown in sidebar, http://www.43places.com and http://technorati.com style * 'My latest Flickr images' shows just stream of latest images added, matching the Flickr ID Fetching the XML is done by Drupal's new excellent xmlrpc() function, it is favoured over REST because of cleaner code (oh please make the 'external l()' patch to the core ;) PHP parsing is done by xml_parse_into_struct() and helper function that converts the struct into a a more usable nested array. The array structure might be too complicated though, looking for suggestions for simplifing the structure Demo -------- http://kika.trip.ee (unstable now, come back later) Todo & Future ------------- * 'See more pictures' link * CC licence link * access control * error handling * caching (should we cache xml, transformed array or images?) * CSS classes * image theme/CSS unification with image.module * introduce configuration * number of images be fetched * move all flickr paths to configuration (they have changed their url schemas already!) * more blocks * blog block (requires separate flick_user_id for each user); * my latest photosets * testing, testing, testing In future, I'd like to see this module integrated to Jonas' flickr.module http://drupal.org/node/14912 after some more integration: * unified naming conventions * unified configuration * unified xml parsing * unified caching k
