Pulling Flickr Photostream using JSON

This is not that tricky, but it took be sometime to figure this out after referring to few websites. One of the website is viget.com.

Things to keep in mind

  • You have to change the Flickr photostream RSS URL like the following

    http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?id=35266478@N06&lang=en-us&format=json&jsoncallback=?

  • Create a div container for all the pictures to drop in. In my case I’m using ‘#content’.

Source Code

var linked = "<your flickr rss url>";
$.getJSON(linked, function(data){
$.each(data.items, function(i, item){
$("<img/>").attr("src", item.media.m).appendTo('#content')
.wrap("<a href='"+ item.link +"' class='close' rel='"+item.media.m+"'>");
});
});

Photo Slide


All the picture are taken from my Flickr photo stream. It does nothing much, I just figured out my own scripting to slide the images back and forth.
