Command line interface for Flickr.

Still in development, more edit mode to come.

Install

npm install -g flickr-cli

Login

Login is interactive and requires for you to grant access rights to your Flickr account. To trigger the login process, launch:

flickr login

Then follow directions. You need to copy and paste a URL into your browser, then grant access.

Flickr-cli is not designed to work in non-auth'ed mode for now.

Upload

In the future uploaded files will be added to a staging area for management (such as, adding to album, editing privacy, or sharing)
