This custom type allows you to interact with the Flickr API. It provides a simple way of executing FlickrAPI requests and getting the information. More information on the different methods available in the api can be found here. You will also need a Flickr API key which you can request here.
// Create a new FlickrAPI object.
var('flickrApi') = shp_FlickrAPI(-ApiKey='xxxxxxxxx');
// Get information about a person (using the flickr.people.getInfo call)
var:'personInfo' = $flickrApi->PeopleGetInfo(-UserId = 'xxxxx@Nxx');
// Get a list of photos
var:'photos' = $flickrApi->Request(
-Method = 'flickr.photosets.getPhotos',
-Params = (Map: 'photoset_id'='xxxxxxxx')
);
// Loop over the photos
Iterate($photos->find('photoset')->find('photo'), (var: 'photo'));
// Get the photo url (for use in an img tag)
var:'photoUrl' = $flickrApi->PhotoUrl(-Photo=$photo, -Size=$size);
// Get the page url for a photo
var:'pageUrl' = $flickrApi->PhotoPage(-Photo=$photo, -UserId='xxxxxx');
/Iterate;
