What is OpenPhoto?

1. FAQ, Answers to the most common questions.

Examples

First, include the OpenPhoto.js script and add a data-site attribute.

<script src="OpenPhoto.js" data-site="http://your-site.com"></script>

Second, write a function that does something with the API response.

<script>
  /*
   * The render function takes a response and loops over the result (in this case, photos)
   *  For each photo we create an IMG element and append it to the BODY
   *  This is can be made much easier using a JavaScript library.
   */
  function render(response) {
    var photos = response.result,
        photo,
        body = document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0],
        img;
    for(i in photos) {
      if(photos.hasOwnProperty(i)) {
        photo = photos[i];
        img = document.createElement('img');
        img.src = photo["path100x100xCR"];
        body.appendChild(img);
      }
    }
  }
</script>

Third, call any API endpoint and pass the callback function we defined above.

<script>
  OpenPhoto.Api.load('/photos/tags-favorites/list.json?pageSize=45&returnSizes=100x100xCR', render);
</script>

This is a pure JavaScript example which doesn't rely on any third party libraries.

Enjoy!
