MMM-Flickr - Pull and animate photos from Flickr public feed of photostream

[kapsolas]

Description:

Check out my module to pull images from a public flickr Feed. Since the feed is the based on the public RSS feed, it will only pull the 20 most recent images - this does not require an API_KEY.

The images will then animate and rotate on the mirror.

Hi no matter what username I use I can’t get this to work? I have tried just my username, whole web address and api? thanks

[kapsolas]

Unfortunately, it does not work with your username. You need to determine what your user id is.

The way I found my id was to go to my camera roll on flickr, then I did a view page source and looked for the value nsid. following it you will see something with the following pattern: ########@N## It may be ########%40N##

You id may look a bit different, but the nsid is the value you want to put in to the config.js file.

@N worked! thanks

Glad it worked for ya!

Hi,

i have a problem with the module.
I used a public ID but the module show me “Loading…”.
I find out the ID over the webpage http://idgettr.com/

Regards,
Phil

If it shows Loading@ it means that it never made the request to the site.
Can you try the URL that is created manually?

Have you confirmed you have connectivity from the raspberry pi?

[PhilReis]

Yes the raspberry pi has connectivity.
And the ID is created from the URL which is from a USER.

My config is:

{
                module: 'MMM-Flickr',
                position: 'bottom_right',
                config: {
                        id: '#######@N04',
                        animationSpeed: 2500,
                        updateInterval: 10000
                        }
                },

The config is correct, or?

[kapsolas]

The config looks good.

PhilReis - were you ever able to get this resolved?
