pecee / instagram-sdk
An easy-to-use PHP Class for accessing Instagram's API.
Requires
- php: >=5.3.0
- ext-curl: *
README
A PHP wrapper for the Instagram API.
Feedback or bug reports are appreciated.
Now supports Instagram video responses.
Requirements
- Registered Instagram App
- PHP 5.3 or higher
- cURL
Get started
To use the Instagram API with OAuth you have to register yourself as developer at the Instagram Developer Platform and set up an App. Take a look at the uri guidlines before registering a redirect URI.
Please note that Instagram mainly refers to »Clients« instead of »Apps«. So »Client ID« and »Client Secret« are the same as »App Key« and »App Secret«.
A good place to get started is the example App.
Initialize the class
Pure PHP
<?php require '../vendor/autoload.php'; $instagram = new Andreyco\Instagram\Client(array( 'apiKey' => 'YOUR_APP_KEY', 'apiSecret' => 'YOUR_APP_SECRET', 'apiCallback' => 'YOUR_APP_CALLBACK', 'scope' => array('basic'), )); echo "<a href='{$instagram->getLoginUrl()}'>Login with Instagram</a>"; ?>
Laravel
This package offers Laravel support out of the box. These steps are required to setup the package.
Configure application
// publish configration file php artisan config:publish andreyco/instagram --path vendor/andreyco/instagram/src/Support/Laravel/config // Edit app/config/packages/andreyco/instagram/config/config.php array ( 'clientId' => 'APPLICATION_ID', 'clientSecret' => 'APPLICATION_SECRET', 'redirectUri' => 'AUTH_REDIRECT', 'scope' => array('basic'), )
Add Service provider and register Facade
'providers' => array( 'Andreyco\Instagram\Support\Laravel\ServiceProvider\Instagram', ), 'aliases' => array( 'Instagram' => 'Andreyco\Instagram\Support\Laravel\Facade\Instagram', ),
echo "<a href='" . Instagram::getLoginUrl() . "'>Login with Instagram</a>";
Authenticate user (OAuth2)
<?php // Grab OAuth callback code $code = $_GET['code']; $data = $instagram->getOAuthToken($code); echo 'Your username is: ' . $data->user->username; ?>
Get user likes
<?php // Set user access token $instagram->setAccessToken($data); // Get all user likes $likes = $instagram->getUserLikes(); // Take a look at the API response echo '<pre>'; print_r($likes); echo '<pre>'; ?>
All methods return the API data json_decode()
- so you can directly access the data.
Available methods
Setup Instagram
new Instagram(<array>/<string>);
array
if you want to authenticate a user and access its data:
new Instagram(array( 'apiKey' => 'YOUR_APP_KEY', 'apiSecret' => 'YOUR_APP_SECRET', 'apiCallback' => 'YOUR_APP_CALLBACK' ));

new Instagram('YOUR_APP_KEY');

$lat
and$lng
are coordinates and have to be floats like:48.145441892290336
,11.568603515625
$distance
Radial distance in meter (default is 1km = 1000, max. is 5km = 5000)$minTimestamp
All media returned will be taken later than this timestamp (default: 5 days ago)$maxTimestamp
All media returned will be taken earlier than this timestamp (default: now)

How to like a Media: Example usage
Sample responses of the Likes Endpoints.
All <...>
parameters are optional. If the limit is undefined, all available results will be returned.
Instagram videos
Instagram entries are marked with a type
attribute (image
or video
), that allows you to identify videos.
An example of how to embed Instagram videos by using Video.js, can be found in the /example
folder.
Please note: Instagram currently doesn't allow to filter videos.
Pagination
Each endpoint has a maximum range of results, so increasing the limit
parameter above the limit won't help (e.g. getUserMedia()
has a limit of 90).
That's the point where the "pagination" feature comes into play.
Simply pass an object into the pagination()
method and receive your next dataset:
<?php $photos = $instagram->getTagMedia('kitten'); $result = $instagram->pagination($photos); ?>
Iteration with do-while
loop.
Samples for redirect URLs
If you need further information about an endpoint, take a look at the Instagram API docs.
Example App
This example project, located in the example/
folder, helps you to get started.
The code is well documented and takes you through all required steps of the OAuth2 process.
