Instagram Uploader

The instagram_uploader package is a Go module designed for uploading images and carousels to Instagram via the Graph API. It provides a simple and efficient way to publish media on Instagram programmatically. This document outlines how to use the instagram_uploader package after its recent refactor.

Features

• Upload single images with captions.
• Upload multiple images as a carousel post with captions.

Installation

Ensure you have Go installed on your system. Install the package with the following command:

go get -u github.com/vahaponur/instagram_uploader

Setting Up

Initialize the IGUploader struct with your Instagram User ID and Access Token:

uploader := instagram_uploader.New("your_instagram_user_id", "your_access_token")

Uploading a Single Image

To upload a single image with a caption:

mediaID, err := uploader.UploadImagePost([]string{"https://example.com/path/to/image.jpg"}, "Your caption here")
if err != nil {
    log.Println(err)
}
fmt.Println("Uploaded media ID:", mediaID)

Uploading a Carousel

For uploading multiple images as a carousel post with a caption:

mediaID, err := uploader.UploadImagePost([]string{
    "https://example.com/path/to/image1.jpg",
    "https://example.com/path/to/image2.jpg",
    // Add more images as needed
}, "Your caption here")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println("Uploaded carousel media ID:", mediaID)
