Flickr...:People(3pm)

✨ Flickr::API::People — the Perl manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay so bestie, this is Flickr::API::People, part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation lineup (manual page Flickr...:People(3pm), if you're keeping receipts 💅). It's a Perl interface to the Flickr API's flickr.people.* methods. Yes, the actual people stuff. Let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

Flickr::API::People — literally the Perl interface to the Flickr API's flickr.people.* methods. That's it, that's the name, no notes ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

here's how you summon it, bestie:

use Flickr::API::People;

my $api = Flickr::API::People->new({'consumer_key' => 'your_api_key'});

or, if you're feeling fancy and want to pull your config from a Storable file:

my $api = Flickr::API::People->import_storable_config($config_file);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this object encapsulates the flickr people methods. That's the whole vibe. It's a little container of people-related goodness, fr fr.

And the tea: Flickr::API::People is a subclass of Flickr::API, so you can access Flickr's people information easily. Inheritance but make it iconic 👑

💅 SUBROUTINES/METHODS 💅

okay here's the lineup, one by one, no skipping, we don't do that here:

• findByEmail() — Populates user info with that found for the given email. Give it an email, get the user info back 📧
• findByUsername() — Populates user info with that found for the given username. Same energy, different lookup key 🏷️
• perms() — Returns the permission returned by checking this supplied token 🔑
• perms_caller — Returns the username for which the permission applies 🙋
• perms_token — Returns the token for which the permission applies 🎟️
• perms_nsid — Returns the nsid for which the permission applies 🆔
• nsid() — Returns the nsid of the supplied mail or username ✉️
• username() — Returns the username of the supplied mail or username 🌟

not me noticing perms() is the only one with parens in the original heading while perms_caller, perms_token, and perms_nsid are quoted instead. we keep it exactly as the source says it, bestie, no rewriting the lore 💖
