Flickr::API2

Perl interface to the Flickr API.

This module is based on Flickr::API by Cal Henderson, forked and updated.

Changes from Version 1:

• Update API URLs to api.flickr.com
• UTF-8 support.
• Automatically retry API calls that time-out.
• Remove XML libraries
• Return Perl structure
• Use JSON API at Flickr
• Update inheritance methods
• Fix dependencies
• Use Module::Install instead of ExtUtils::MakeMaker
• Add unit tests
• Throw exceptions when deserved rather than return a hash containing a "not ok" field in it.
• Remove the subclassed HTTP::Response object as your main returned item.
• Some initial helper methods to directly access photos/searches.

Still to come:

• More helper methods and classes.
