setid The id of a photo set to use to narrow the result data. Note: do not reuse the API key used in Dojo examples, register your own. Flickr requires clients of their REST APIs to register for an API key. It allows the following attributes to be set and queried against: userid A Flickr userid to use to narrow the search scope, e.g. The fetch method query syntax for FlickrRestStore is simple and straightforward. This parameter can be either a comma separated string, or an array of strings. Passing a tags parameter to the request query searches by the given tags.

Due to limitations of the Flickr API, using this parameter negates the use of the full text search. By specifying a setid parameter on the query, you can retrieve photos only from a single set. The Flickr API supports full text searching, which you can do by passing a text parameter to the request query. The available sort attributes are date-taken, date-published and interestingness. An example of this would be two widgets sharing the same FlickrRestStore, and individually paging through the photos.

Instead, the second caller is notified when the first request completes. If an identical request is received before the first request has completed, a second remote request is not made. Supports multiple simultaneous clients.If a request is repeated, or a subset of one or more previous requests is requested, it is returned immediately. This opens up the possibility of having a very comprehensive data store that can have a very rich querying interface. The Flickr REST API, a much more flexible API than the one used by FlickrStore. However, FlickrRestStore provides many more features: The following dojo.data APIs are implemented by FlickrRestStoreįlickrRestStore is built upon FlickrStore, a store which reads from Flickr’s more simplistic public API. Look at this demo to see it in action, or look here for some example usages.

Then by simply using the FlickrRestStore store, as you would any data store in Dojo, you now have access to querying the vast repository of public photos made available by others on the Web. The purpose of FlickrRestStore is to wrapper the public photo feed of the Flickr service. It is those services that perform the querying and filtering of data, and then provide only that as a subset back to the data store for presentation as items.įlickrRestStore is one such store. In many cases, data stores can wrapper external services. While these stores are useful and great examples of how data stores can be used to wrapper accessing data, they are not the only way data is served and processed. Many advanced features are available, including tag search, sorting on numerous attributes, full text search, support for simultaneous clients, result caching and more.ĭojo has several examples of browser in-memory stores, such as, , and. Query the first three photos from a userįlickrRestStore is an implementation of the dojo.data API provides access to the Flickr photo sharing site’s REST API.
