An XQuery interface to Flickr
Issue 41; 29 Oct 2010
, Easy access to the Flickr API from XQuery.
I think of each photo as a potential code patch to our body of common knowledge, not as a work of art.
A while back, I implemented an XSL Flickr API. In the course of fiddling with some more geospatial goodness for this weblog, I decided that I wanted it in XQuery as well. Easy peasy: XQuery-Flickr.
Share and enjoy.
(Credit where it's due, Jonathan Marsh did most of the heavy lifting by creating a WSDL 2.0 for Flickr. WSDL shmizdle, it's an XML representation of all the methods that I could quickly translate into XQuery functions.)
