Instagram Photo Picker

Allow users to pick photos from their Instagram profile in easy way.

Introduction

Implementing Instagram API may be difficult for some developers, that is why I have created this module.

It is clear and fast way to implement nice looking (and working) photo picker for Instagram photos in your React application.

Component is using instagram-web-oauth module for authorization.

Requirements

First of all go to Instagram Developer Console and create your app.

After creating app go to: Manage Clients -> Manage -> Security.

Some important notes:

Disable implicit OAuth - must be unchecked, otherwise we will not be able to use Implicit flow!
Valid redirect URIs - add URI from where you are calling instagram authorization.

For example your redirect URI can look like this: http://localhost:3000/.

Preview

Usage

Place this code in your </head> tag:

<script src="https://instagram-photo-picker.firebaseapp.com/instagram.min.js"></script>
<script>
  window.instagramPhotoPicker.clientId = instagram_client_id;
  window.instagramPhotoPicker.onPhotosPicked = (photos) => {
    console.warn('picked photos', photos);
  };
</script>

To show dialog, simply call:

window.instagramPhotoPicker.show();
// or if you want to hide:
window.instagramPhotoPicker.hide();

You can also get all downloaded images:

window.instagramPhotoPicker.getInstagramImages();

Summary
