VERSION
Version 0.05
SYNOPSIS
Step 1: Get the authorization URL:
Get the AUTH URL to authenticate,
use WebService::Instagram;
my $instagram = WebService::Instagram->new(
{
client_id => 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
client_secret => 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
redirect_uri => 'http://domain.com',
}
);
my $auth_url = $instagram->get_auth_url();
print Dumper $auth_url;Step 2: Let the User authorize the API
Go to the above calculated URL in the browser, authenticate and save the code returned by the browser after authentication. You will need this to get access_token in Step 3.
The returned URL is usually of the form www.returnuri.com/?code=xxxxxxxxxxx
Step 3: Get and Set Access Token
Now using the code, fetch the access_token and set it to the object,
$instagram->set_code( $code ); #$code is fetched from Step 2.
my $access_token = $instagram->get_access_token();
#Set the access_token to $instagram object
$instagram->set_access_token( $access_token );Step 4: Fetch API Resources
Fetch the protected resource.
#Get information about the owner of the access_token.
my $search_result = $instagram->request( 'https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/self' );SUBROUTINES/METHODS
