Flickr::Upload v1.32 SSL bug fix suggestion
Dear Christophe Beauregard,
Thank you for writing the excellent and useful Flickr::Upload module.
As you may know, Flickr now require the use of https, and so your module
version 1.32 no longer works, unless the parameter:
'uri' => 'https://api.flickr.com/services/upload/',
is added to upload calls.
For example:
use Flickr::Upload;
my $ua = Flickr::Upload->new(
{
'key' => '90909354',
'secret' => '37465825'
});
$ua->upload(
'uri' => 'https://api.flickr.com/services/upload/', # THIS
LINE ADDED
'photo' => '/tmp/image.jpg',
'auth_token' => $auth_token,
'tags' => 'me myself eye',
'is_public' => 1,
'is_friend' => 1,
'is_family' => 1
) or die "Failed to upload /tmp/image.jpg";
I would like to suggest a modification to your sub make_upload_request
whereby the line:
my $uri = $args{'uri'} || 'http://api.flickr.com/services/upload/';
would become:
my $uri = $args{'uri'} || 'https://api.flickr.com/services/upload/';
I believe that this would fix the problem.
Thank you for reading this email.
- Kevin
