Instagram PHP API
=================

[](#instagram-php-api)

A simple PHP wrapper for the Instagram API. Based on the original [Instagram-PHP-API](https://github.com/cosenary/Instagram-PHP-API) by [Christian Metz](http://metzweb.net)

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 5.6 or higher
- cURL
- Facebook Developer Account
- Facebook App

Get started
-----------

[](#get-started)

To use the Instagram API, you will need to register a Facebook app and configure Instagram Basic Display. Follow the [getting started guide](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-basic-display-api/getting-started).

### Installation

[](#installation)

I strongly advise using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org) to keep updates as smooth as possible.

```
$ composer require espresso-dev/instagram-php
```

### Initialize the class

[](#initialize-the-class)

```
use EspressoDev\Instagram\Instagram;

$instagram = new Instagram([
    'appId' => 'YOUR_APP_ID',
    'appSecret' => 'YOUR_APP_SECRET',
    'redirectUri' => 'YOUR_APP_REDIRECT_URI'
]);

echo "Login with Instagram";
```

### Authenticate user (OAuth2)

[](#authenticate-user-oauth2)

```
// Get the OAuth callback code
$code = $_GET['code'];

// Get the short lived access token (valid for 1 hour)
$token = $instagram->getOAuthToken($code, true);

// Exchange this token for a long lived token (valid for 60 days)
$token = $instagram->getLongLivedToken($token, true);

echo 'Your token is: ' . $token;
```

### Get user profile

[](#get-user-profile)

```
// Set user access token
$instagram->setAccessToken($token);
// Get the users profile
$profile = $instagram->getUserProfile();

echo '';
print_r($profile);
echo '';
```

### Get user media

[](#get-user-media)

```
// Set user access token
$instagram->setAccessToken($token);
// Get the users media
$media = $instagram->getUserMedia();

echo '';
print_r($media);
echo '';
```
