Abandoned?

Open danmichaelo opened this issue 7 years ago • 8 comments

Last commit was 22 Nov 2015. Since then there's been some breaking API changes covered by several PRs not yet merged. It seems like @cosenary hasn't been active on github for some time, so perhaps life has caught him. I tried sending him an email about the status of the project, and offered me to help.

It also seems like @vinkla has commit access to the repo. Is that right? Do you have a chance to merge a couple of PRs?

I do have access. Though, I not in a position to decide which PRs should be merged or not.

I suggest looking at the Elogram package instead.

@vinkla Thank you for throwing out a viable alternative.

The Elogram package is very buggy as well unfortunately.

@albertleao then you could let the maintainer know and open issues or even better, create pull requests. I know he is very responsive and want to make the package the best Instagram PHP package out there.

@vinkla I have, I am trying to fix an issue with him at the moment.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be mean. Just wanted to let anyone know if they needed a working library quickly. He himself said that he's busy doing other work

You could also take a look at my fork. It is working quite well for me and some others: https://github.com/florianbeer/Instagram-PHP-API

Hey guys - ever since the instagram API update it looks like they deprecated the ability to do a public hashtag search. Now, you can only search hastags for the authenticated rather than searching all the content on Instagram.

Does anyone know any workarounds to do a public hashtag search? If there is no way to do this I might write a script that launched a phantom browser that programatically goes to instagram.com, performs the search, then parses the HTML results.

Let me know ! Thanks
