The package relies on the `vinkla/instagram` package, and adds a solution to cache and a model [![](https://repository-images.githubusercontent.com/221643787/bad3b180-06e3-11ea-919c-7cfe078d10e9)](https://repository-images.githubusercontent.com/221643787/bad3b180-06e3-11ea-919c-7cfe078d10e9) Installation ------------ [](#installation) You can install the package via composer: ``` composer require retinens/laravel-instagram ``` Then run the migrations used for caching, as the API is limited to 200 calls/hour. ``` php artisan migrate ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) First you need to generate an access token using Pixel Union's [access token generator](http://instagram.pixelunion.net) or by creating an [Instagram application](https://www.instagram.com/developer/authentication). Put this API key in your .env file ``` INSTAGRAM_KEY=YOUR_KEY ``` You can run the command to update the cache. ``` php artisan laravel-instagram:refresh ``` NOTE : you have to run the Laravel Scheduler in background to use this package. This package adds a command which is executed every 10 minutes to update the cache. [More info about the Laravel scheduler](https://laravel.com/docs/master/scheduling) To retrieve all posts use the facade : (this is limited to the latests) ``` LaravelInstagram::getPosts() ``` You can specify a number of post to get, it will get the most recents ones : ``` LaravelInstagram::getPosts(4) ``` This returns a collection with all the posts stored. On each post, you can get attributes: ``` // Full Size Image $post->standardResolutionImageUrl // Caption text $post->captionText // HTML formatted caption text (use {!! !!} to escape tags) $post->htmlCaptionText // Link to the post $post->link ``` Credits ------- [](#credits) - [Lucas Houssa](https://github.com/whereislucas) - [All Contributors](../../contributors) License ------- [](#license) The MIT License (MIT).
