A simple Picasa Web Albums client (2.0) for nodejs. Includes Auth helpers.
$ npm install --save picasa
(Check out the examples dir too, rename config.example.json > config.json and add your credentials)
const Picasa = require('picasa')
const picasa = new Picasa()
NOTE: Every Picasa API request requires an access token.
const options = {
'max-results' : 10 // by default get all
}
picasa.getPhotos(accessToken, options, (error, photos) => {
console.log(error, photos)
})
Where binary is the binary's file and the albumId the album id to be stored.
const photoData = {
title : 'A title',
summary : 'Summary or description',
contentType : 'image/jpeg', // image/bmp, image/gif, image/png
binary : binary
}
picasa.postPhoto(accessToken, albumId, photoData, (error, photo) => {
console.log(error, photo)
})
picasa.deletePhoto(accessToken, albumId, photoId, (error) => {
console.log(error)
})
To get an access token follow the next flow:
1.Get the Auth URL and redirect the user to it.
// Get config here API Manager > Credentials https://console.developers.google.com/home/dashboard
const config = {
clientId : 'yourClientId',
redirectURI : 'redirectURI'
}
const authURL = picasa.getAuthURL(config)
2.Google displays a consent screen to the user, asking them to authorize your application to request some of their data.
3.Google redirects a code to your redirectURI.
4.Use the code given as GET param in order to get an access token:
// Get config here API Manager > Credentials https://console.developers.google.com/home/dashboard
const config = {
clientId : 'yourClientId',
redirectURI : 'redirectURI'
clientSecret : 'yourClientSecret'
}
picasa.getAccessToken(config, code, (error, accessToken) => {
console.log(error, accessToken)
})
