Running FlickrUploadr on Linux — Firefox!

Wednesday, March 19, 2008

Trying to deliberately make an uploader out of FlickrUploadr I tried to put it into a browser… as an extension/add-on/plugin.

Here’s what I did:

  1. get the source and extract it anywhere
  2. cut/copy the contents of chrome folder of the Flicker Uploader (/uploadr/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Resources/chrome) to a new folder named flickr and place it in your (~) folder
  3. go to your mozilla firefox folder (default ~/.mozilla/firefox/########.default/) where ######## is your profile id
  4. edit your extensions.ini file. add the following line
        Extension##=~/mozFFfolder/yourProfile/extensions/FlickrUploadrTest
    ex.  Extension10=/home/roiji/.mozilla/firefox/5ca8so10.default/extensions/FlickrUploadrTest

    where: ## is the next number of you extension…
           mozFFfolder is where your Mozilla Firefox folder is
           yourProfile is your profile id default
           FlickrUploadrTest a folder which we will create later

  5. edit your extensions.rdf file and insert the following lines before the </RDF:RDF> tag at the bottom
      <RDF:Seq about="urn:mozilla:package:root">
        <RDF:li resource="urn:mozilla:package:FlickrUploadrTest"/>
      </RDF:Seq>

      <RDF:Description about="urn:mozilla:package:FlickrUploadrTest"
              chrome:displayName="Flickr Uploadr Test"
              chrome:author="roiji Mikagami"
              chrome:name="FlickrUploadrTest"
              chrome:extension="false"/>

  6. insert the chrome namespace at the top <RDF:RDF>
      <RDF:RDF xmlns:NS1="http://www.mozilla.org/2004/em-rdf#"
               xmlns:chrome="http://www.mozilla.org/rdf/chrome#"
               xmlns:NC="http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#"
               xmlns:RDF="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">
  7. go to you extensions folder in you firefox and create a folder named FlickrUploadrTest
  8. copy/paste the chrome.manifest and chrome.manifest.prod file from your ~/flickr folder to the FlickUploadrTest folder
  9. edit your chrome.manifest file so that I’ll look something like this:
      content uploadr file:///home/flickr/content/uploadr/
      locale branding en-US file:///home/
    flickr/locale/branding/
      locale uploadr en-US file:///home/
    flickr/locale/en-US/
      skin uploadr default file:///home/
    flickr/skin/

    just change the paths to your flickr folder

  10. paste the content of the skin/uploadr to skin and locale/en-US to locale (both in your ~/flickr folder)
  11. restart your firefox if ever it’s open (well it’s open, your reading this ^^,)
  12. go to chrome://uploadr/content/main.xul in firefox and hopefully it works with you..

if you have any questions or clarifications please feel free to post on my message board or comment here… don’t worry, i don’t bite~ hahahh

by the way, this exercise is only to RUN Flickr Uploadr on your Firefox browser… on not to actually make it WORK…

it is a step (for me) to make / try to make an uploader based on FlickrUploadr based on xulrunner…  

the one I did before has Components.classes  errors (UnnamedClass.classes error)… because of under priviledged code… so chrome installed files are a work around… but what if the uploader come from the net.. then it won’t be chrome installed, unless it is an xpi extension to be installed by the user….

How to (force) run Flickr Uploadr on Linux

Please take note that we can make it run but it will not work… and in light of this, i think if someone tries, they can tweak it to run on linux!



Description

  Testing if we could use Flickr’s Uploader 3.0 that is now based on Mozilla XULRunner

Some other information

  Flickr Uploader 3.0 - The new Flickr Uploadr has been built from scratch to work on Windows and Mac OSX. Before you upload you can add titles, tags and descriptions, add photos to sets and reorder your photos from Uploadr. This new Uploadr is an open source project, too, so you can download it and have a look at how it works.
          -  Win XP & Vista
          -  Mac OSX 10.4 & 10.5
          -  source code
NOTE:

  • Flickr Uploader, although built from XULRunner, a cross-platform framework, is not available for LINUX!
  • Previous versions of Flickr Uploader are not built on XULRunner

  XULRunner - a Mozilla runtime package that can be used to bootstrap XUL+XPCOM applications that are as rich as Firefox and Thunderbird. It will provide mechanisms for installing, upgrading, and uninstalling these applications. XULRunner will also provide libxul, a solution which allows the embedding of Mozilla technologies in other projects and products.

Flicker Uploader on Linux

  • I managed to run Flickr Uploader on Linux but it doesn’t function.
  • It does have the Flickr UI buttons, menus, and all but when you start to upload or just sign in it just does nothing.

 How to (force) run Flickr Uploader on Linux

  1. Download XULRunner here
  2. Download Flickr Uploader source here
  3. extract contents of XULRunner to a folder named xulrunner and place it to your home (~) folder or any folder you are comfortable with
  4. extract Flicker Uploader to your desktop or any tmp folder
  5. cut/copy the contents of Resource folder of the Flicker Uploader (/uploadr/MacUploadr.app/Contents/Resources) to a folder named flickr and place it in your xulrunner folder
  6. make a .mozconfig file using your favorite text editor and place it to your (~/) folder and xulrunner folder [i’m not sure which one of the two work because i tried both] the contents of the file is:

    mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=xulrunner
    mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@topsrcdir@/obj-xulrunner
    ac_add_options –enable-application=xulrunner
    #ac_add_options –disable-javaxpcom

  7. in your terminal/bash/shell which ever you wanna call it and export a variable for .mozconfig [i don’t know if this is essential]

    export MOZCONFIG=~/.mozconfig

  8. cd to your xulrunner folder and run Flickr Uploader and wait for at least 1-3 minutes… Flickr Uploader will appear.

    ./xulrunner flickr/application.ini

And now, whatI’ll do is to make an uploader based on this Flickr Uploadr… good luck to me >:)
