Instagram API

Browser and node module for making API requests against Instagram API.

Please note: This module uses Popsicle to make API requests. Promises must be supported or polyfilled on all target environments.

Installation

npm install instagram-api --save
bower install instagram-api --save

Usage

Node

var InstagramApi = require('instagram-api');

var client = new InstagramApi();

Browsers

<script src="instagram-api/index.js"></script>

<script>
  var client = new InstagramApi();
</script>

Options

You can set options when you initialize a client or at any time with the options property. You may also override options for a single request by passing an object as the second argument of any request method. For example:

var client = new InstagramApi({ ... });

client.options = { ... };

client.resource('/').get(null, {
  baseUri: 'http://example.com',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  }
});

Base URI

You can override the base URI by setting the baseUri property, or initializing a client with a base URI. For example:

new InstagramApi({
  baseUri: 'https://example.com'
});

Base URI Parameters

If the base URI has parameters inline, you can set them by updating the baseUriParameters property. For example:

client.options.baseUriParameters.version = 'v1';

Resources

All methods return a HTTP request instance of Popsicle, which allows the use of promises (and streaming in node).
