Flickr date changing tool

Tags: Filed under: Written in Englishhugo @ 22:58

After my issues with photos having the wrong taken date, I quickly put together a tool to edit this information from the command line using the Flickr API. It took me 30 minutes to fix the dates of 150 pictures with it.

It’s nothing fancy: DateFix.py allows to to set the taken date of a set of photos given their ids. The ids of the photos showing problems are easily gotten from the calendar view, using the “edit as a batch” tool.

It looks like this:

DateFix.py -i 79818469@N00 -d 2001-09-02 121729217 121729192
