Upload your local photo library to flickr – automatically

A little project I startet when I failed to find a Flickr batch uploader for my needs. As of today, Pyflickrsync takes your local photo library and uploads all the files to flickr, using directory names as photo tags and sets. Pyflickrsync can resume uploading after beeing interrupted and recognised existing sets.

At this time pyflickrsync is really rough around the edges.

Planned features are:

• Resizing photos that are too large (>10MB)
• Dry runs
• Detailed logging
• Installation as service
• Exclusion of predefined folders and files

Get it here: http://github.com/zollinger/pyflickrsync

Usage:

1. Download the script to your computer
2. Get a Flickr API key and secret from here
3. Run the script with this command:

   python flickrsync.py --api_key=YOUR_API_KEY --secret=YOUR_SECRET --dir=PATH_TO_PHOTOS
