Tumblr photo posting by using jumblr

Question

I am developing simple application to post text and a photo via tumblr by using jumblr. Text posting is working perfectly. But image posting as file working but image posting by url is not working.

My code

                client = new JumblrClient(TumblrConstants.tumblrConsKey,
                        TumblrConstants.tumblrSecKey);
                client.setToken(objSession.getToken(),
                        objSession.getTokenSecret());
                // This part is working perfectly
                PhotoPost photoPost =client.newPost(client.user().getName(),
                        PhotoPost.class);
                File file=new File(picturePath);
                photoPost.setPhoto(new Photo(file));
                photoPost.save();

                // This part is not working
                PhotoPost photoPost1 = client.newPost(client.user().getName(),
                        PhotoPost.class);
                String imgUrl = "http://dummyimage.com/300.png/09f/fff";
                photoPost1.setCaption("sample");
                //photoPost.setSource(imgUrl);
                photoPost1.setLinkUrl(imgUrl);
                photoPost1.save();

    //              TextPost post = client.newPost(client.user().getName(),
    //                      TextPost.class);
    //              post.setTitle("Sample title");
    //              post.setBody(txt);
    //              post.save();

You can easily do this using jumblr - Tumblr java client

JumblrClient client = new JumblrClient(Constant.CONSUMER_KEY,Constant.CONSUMER_SECRET);

client.setToken(preferences.getString("token",null), preferences.getString("token_secret", null));

PhotoPost pp = client.newPost(client.user().getBlogs().get(0).getName(),PhotoPost.class);

pp.setCaption(caption);
// pp.setLinkUrl(link);
// pp.setSource(mImage); // String URL
pp.setPhoto(new Photo(imgFile));
pp.save();

I will try and let you know – selva_pollachi Jan 22 '15 at 13:01
photoPost.setPhoto(new Photo("https://www.tablesavvy.com/img/big/nana-quail.jpg")); same error coming again – selva_pollachi Jan 22 '15 at 13:04
Dear, instead of url you have to send file like File imgFile = new File(imagePath); photoPost.setPhoto(new Photo(imgFile)); – Umang Kothari Jan 22 '15 at 13:42
Sending as file working for me. But i need to send image as url. okay, i will tried setLinkUrl. It also gives same error. – selva_pollachi Jan 22 '15 at 13:49
Make sure you are connected to internet. – Umang Kothari Jan 22 '15 at 13:55
@Idce sending image as url (setLinkUrl) is not working. sending image as file is working. – selva_pollachi Jan 22 '15 at 13:57
Make sure you are connected to internet then after it will not work then create issue over here https://github.com/tumblr/jumblr – Umang Kothari Jan 22 '15 at 14:03

I was able to create & save a new PhotoPost by URL with the following code once I authenticated.

final String source = "<YOUR IMAGE URL HERE>";
final PhotoPost post = client.newPost("<AUTHENTICATED BLOG NAME>", PhotoPost.class);
post.setSource(source);
post.save();
