Hey everybody, Once upon a time I wrote bindings for Flickr API for Common Lisp. Now that I'm getting into Clojure I've ported and improved them:
http://github.com/schani/flickr-clojure/tree/master Right now the high level interface only supports reading calls. I do plan to implement writing calls, like adding or removing tags, organizing photos in sets, etc, but they won't be my main focus. What I have planned next is implementing persistent caching of API call results, so that I can do data analysis without having to re-fetch everything if I run a new Clojure instance. Something unrelated to Flickr that might be of interest is a little macro I've written to map parsed XML data to sane data structures. For example, flickr_api.clj declares (defapistruct flickr-group (id :id) (name (:child :name :body)) (description (:child :description :body)) (members (:child :members :body) :integer) (privacy (:child :privacy :body))) which defines a function make-flickr-group which turns this XML <group id="123"> <name>Foo</name> <description>Bar</description> <members>42</members> <privacy>quux</privacy> </group> into this map: {:description "Bar", :id "123", :members 42, :name "Foo", :privacy "quux"} It doesn't handle everything that can arise in XML. For example, it cannot extract more than one child with the same name. It's also hidden as a non-public API, but if there's interest, I'll make it a separate, public API.
