An unofficial Instagram RESTful API. easy to fetch any feed and interact with Instagram (like, follow, etc.) with JWT token implementation.

If you login with your instagram credentials on /auth/login and get Checkpoint required, please provide IMAP credentials to process authentication error like problem #1 over and over again. Consider using an alternative login with the Instagram sessionid cookie which you can get in this tutorial or this one.

Warning This project uses the nsmle/instagram-user-feed library instead of pgrimaud/instagram-user-feed now onwards. Because some of the features developed and used in this project have not been accepted and I'm still trying to make changes to some of the features that might break.

If you are having trouble with this, you can delete lines 35-60 and replace line 69 to:

"pgrimaud/instagram-user-feed": "^6.16.4"  // Or to a higher version, See: https://github.com/pgrimaud/instagram-user-feed/releases 

in your composer.json file. Or if you have a solution to an existing problem, you can open an issue or make a pull request.

git clone https://github.com/nsmle/igramapi.git

• Open your terminal and go to your working directory.
• Clone this repository

  git clone https://github.com/nsmle/igramapi.git

• Go to folder

  cd igramapi

• Generate JWT_SECRET key in .env file

  php artisan jwt:generate-key

• Start local server

  php artisan serve

• Open link http://localhost:8000/ to see available endpoints list

Please see your app BASEURL to see documentations, or you can see https://igramapi.fiki.tech/. Or you can also read the Endpoints bellow.

See your BASEURL and custom your APP_URL in .env file.

<BASEURL>/v1

v1 is semantic version of this application in .env file.

Note Replace <BASEAPIURL> in example with your app base api url. You can also replace it with https://igramapi.fiki.tech/v1 as an illustration when in production.

You can also send jwt token via cookie/query instead of token header. E.g in Curl:

curl -X <METHOD> "<BASEURL>/<VERSION>/<PATH>"
     -H "Content-Type: <CONTENT_TYPE>"
     -d "<DATA>"
     -b "token=<YOUR_JWT_TOKEN>" 

The jwt token contains the Instagram session id, csrf token cookie and along with some other information.
