DESCRIPTION
A simple interface for using the Flickr API.
"Flickr::API" is a subclass of LWP::UserAgent, so all of the various proxy, request limits, caching, etc are available.
METHODS
"execute_method($method, $args)"
Constructs a "Flickr::API::Request" object and executes it, returning a "Flickr::API::Response" object.
"execute_request($request)"
Executes a "Flickr::API::Request" object, returning a "Flickr::API::Response" object. Calls are signed if a secret was specified when
creating the "Flickr::API" object.
"request_auth_url($perms,$frob)"
Returns a "URI" object representing the URL that an application must redirect a user to for approving an authentication token.
For web-based applications $frob is an optional parameter.
Returns undef if a secret was not specified when creating the "Flickr::API" object.
