Creates and auto-refreshes long-lived api access tokens, imports instagram feeds/posts as entities to the database and output feeds/posts via Frontend-Plugin. - >= V3.x of this extension uses the "Instagram API with Instagram Login" App and API. - <= V2.x uses the "Instagram Basic Display API" which will reach its EOL on Dec 4th 2024. **Summary of features** - Backend module for easy creation of long-lived API access tokens - Automatic refreshing of API access tokens to keep them valid - Import multiple Instagram users feeds/posts - Uses official "Instagram API with Instagram Login" to access a users feed. - Provides commands to refresh access tokens and to import feeds via cronjob/scheduler - Downloads the posts (images/videos). No API calls needed when displaying them = no frontend performance impact. - Display users feeds/posts in any way you like - Based on Extbase and Fluid Installation ------------ [](#installation) The recommended way to install the extension is by using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/). In your Composer based TYPO3 project root, just do: ``` composer require svenpetersen/instagram ``` Setup ----- [](#setup) 1. Include the provided static TypoScript 2. Create a Facebook "Instagram API with Instagram Login" App: See the [official Documentation](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-platform/instagram-api-with-instagram-login)for a step by step guide 3. Use the Backend Module provided by this Extension to create a "long-lived access token" in a "Feed" Entity. 4. Execute the command `instagram:import:posts {username}{storagePid} [limit|25]` to import the posts from a given users feed 5. Add a Frontend-Plugin on a page to output the imported posts in the frontend. **Recommended**: - Add a cronjob/scheduler task to refresh the API Access tokens automatically - see "Automatic Access Token refresh" for details. - Add a cronjob/scheduler task to import the posts on a regular basis Compatibility ------------- [](#compatibility) VersionTYPO3PHPSupport/DevelopmentAPI4.x13.4>= 8.2 <= 8.4Features, Bugfixes, Security UpdatesInstagram API with Instagram Login3.x12.4>= 8.1 <= 8.2Bugfixes, Security UpdatesInstagram API with Instagram Login2.x12.4>= 8.1 <= 8.2Bugfixes, Security UpdatesInstagram Basic Display API1.x10.4 - 11.57.4 - 8.0️AbandonedInstagram Basic Display APIFuntionalities -------------- [](#funtionalities) ### Automatic import of posts [](#automatic-import-of-posts) This extension comes with a command to import (new) posts of a given instagram user. It is recommended to set this command up to run regularly - e.g. once a day. ``` instagram:import:posts {username} {storagePid} [limit|25] [--since="01/01/2022 00:00:00" --until="12/31/2022 23:59:59" ] ``` **Arguments:** NameDescriptionusernameThe instagram username to import posts forstoragePidThe PID to save the imported postslimitThe maximum number of posts to import (Optional. Default: 25)**Options:** NameDescription--sinceDate string to fetch posts since (Format: "MM/DD/YYYY H:i:s").--untilDate string to fetch posts until (Format: "MM/DD/YYYY H:i:s").### Automatic Access Token Refreshing [](#automatic-access-token-refreshing) The generated long-lived access token is valid for 60 days. It can be refreshed when at least 24 hours old. To handle automatic refreshing of your access tokens this extension provides the command ``` instagram:accesstoken:refresh-all ``` Make sure to run this command regularly - e.g. once a day via a cronjob/scheduler - in order to keep your access token valid. ### Disable/enable Backend module "Token Generator" [](#disableenable-backend-module-token-generator) To disable the Backend module - e.g. after you generated all needed tokens - add this line to the `LocalConfiguration.php/AdditionalConfiguration.php`: ``` $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['features']['instagram.tokenGeneratorBeModule'] = false; ``` Extending --------- [](#extending) ### Additional Template Selector [](#additional-template-selector) If you need a kind of template selector inside a plugin, you can add your own selections by adding those to: ``` $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXT']['instagram']['templateLayouts']['myext'] = ['My Title', 'my value']; ``` ### Local path to save downloaded files [](#local-path-to-save-downloaded-files) By default all images/videos in imported posts are saved in `/public/fileadmin/instagram`You can change this path via the Extensions settings `local_file_storage_path` option. ### Events [](#events) This extension comes with a few events for you to listen to and add your own logic: NameArgs.DescriptionPrePersistPostEventPost $post string $action\['new' or ‘update'\]Dispatched before a Post is saved. Can be used to modify the Post entity.PostPersistPostEventPost $postDispatched after a Post is saved.UPGRADE ------- [](#upgrade) ### v2.x to v3.x [](#v2x-to-v3x) Since the "Instagram Basic Display API" will reach it's EOL an Dec. 4th 2024 the underlaying mechanism for generating access tokens changes. It is now required to have a "Instagram Professional Account". Any regular Instagram account can be converted into a professional account via the Profile Settings. You then have to use the "Instagram Token Generator" Backend Module and re-run the token generation process. This extension will then update your exsiting Feed Entity with a new access token. There are no changes to the database model, templates or plugins. All your existing customizations etc. will work like before.
