This tool, written in Rust, implements enough of the Amazon Photos API to perform the following operations:

1. Create an album or get a reference to an existing one, proceeding by name.
2. Upload the contents of a directory to an Amazon Photos instance, note down all the pictures' IDs.
3. Add all these pictures to the album.

To create your configuration file for the first time, use the config_setup.py script:

1. Open Amazon Photos in your web browser and log in
2. Open Developer Tools (F12 or Right-click → Inspect)
3. Go to the Console tab and run:

   document.cookie

4. Copy the entire cookie string
5. Run the setup script:

   python3 config_setup.py 'session-id=123; x-acbfr=abc; ...'

The script will:

• Automatically detect your country from the cookie names
• Create the configuration file with default values
• Display the configuration file location
• Provide instructions for updating the zone if needed

The configuration file is stored in:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/amzn_photos_uploader/config.toml
• Linux: ~/.config/amzn_photos_uploader/config.toml
• Windows: %APPDATA%\amzn_photos_uploader\config.toml

To update your cookies (e.g., after session expiration), use the config_update.py script:

python3 config_update.py 'session-id=123; x-acbfr=abc; ...'

This will update the cookie values while preserving your other settings (country, zone, user agent).

If photo uploads fail, you may need to update the zone parameter:

1. Open Amazon Photos in your browser
2. Open Developer Tools → Network tab
3. Upload a photo through the web interface
4. Look for a request to: https://content-XX.drive.amazonaws.com/v2/upload
5. Note the XX value (e.g., eu, na, fe)
6. Edit your config file and update: zone = "XX"
