Flickr Bulk Uploader
This application is useful for those users that want to upload a lot of Photos to Flickr, for example, when you pay for an account and you need to do the first import.
That was the reason for me to create this application.
How it works
You need to create a config file called "settings.py" in the same directory of the project with this line inside:
PHOTOS_DIRECTORY = '/path/to/your/photos/directory'
Once you have created this file and run the applicacion, it will search for all the subdirectories that don't have more subdirectories and it will upload all the files inside them in a PhotoSet with the name of this directory.
Example:
/home/YOUR_USERNAME/fotos/ ├── Sunny day │ ├── IMG_0016.JPG │ ├── IMG_0017.JPG │ ├── IMG_0018.JPG ...... ├── Kayak │ ├── DSC01732.jpg │ ├── DSC01733.jpg │ ├── DSC01734.jpg ...... ├── My birthday │ ├── My camera │ │ ├── IMG_0239.JPG │ │ ├── IMG_0240.JPG │ └── My brother's camera │ ├── IMG_0151.JPG ......
Whit this directory structure, "flickr-bulk-uploader.py" will create 4 PhotoSets with the names: "Sunny day", "Kayak", "My camera" and "My brother's camera".
Yes, the two last PhotoSets' names could be considered as a BUG. If you have any idea on how to solve it, please open a new Issue.
Don't duplicate photos, please!
If something wrong happens during the uploading proccess and it stops; you can "resume" the last state by running it again without uploading the same photos again. "flickr-bulk-upload.py" will check if the Photo was already uploaded in the PhotoSet before to upload it.
Running the application
Just run it as a Python script:
$ python flickr-bulk-uploader.py
