offlickr - Back up Flickr photos, videos, and metadata

Annual backup before I decided whether or not to re-up my Flickr Pro account or not. This script made it so easy!

If your on OSX, just run this in terminal (if it doesn’t work prefix ‘sudo’):

mkdir flickrbackup
cd flickrbackup
svn co http://offlickr.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ .
pip install ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/python/libxml2-python-2.6.21.tar.gz
pip install flickrapi
mkdir photos
python Offlickr.py -d photos -p -n -L -c 2

Then wait for it…

    You need a few python-y things...it, but it’s really easy after that.
