instabot

A Clojure app designed to ... monitor hashtags and users on instagram and fetch new media.

Deploy

1. Make an uberjar
2. Start with java -jar and provide the following in the ENV: client-id : The instagram client id client-secret : The instagram client secret redirect-uri : The instagram redirect uri
3. Thats it. But I recommend to use behind nginx proxy.

Notes

Problemet med get-tagged-medias är att den returnar x antal media + en pagination. Det kan vara sjukt många poster som har gjorts på hashtagen. Detta löses genom att räkna ut antal sidor och dela upp så det blir mindre än 5.000 requests per timme.

Dock går det inte att räkna ut detta innan ut vi måste ha en counter som ser till att antal requests inte blir för många per timme.

Search funkar bara i 7dagar max. /media/search Search for media in a given area. The default time span is set to 5 days. The time span must not exceed 7 days. Defaults time stamps cover the last 5 days. Can return mix of image and video types.

För att göra denna app krävs följande API endpoints hos instagram:

Limits: Unauthenticated Calls 5,000 / hour per application

ENDPOINT UNSIGNED CALLS (PER TOKEN) SIGNED CALLS (PER TOKEN) POST /media/media-id/likes 30 / hour 100 / hour POST /media/media-id/comments 15 / hour 60 / hour POST /users/user-id/relationships 20 / hour 60 / hour

Verkar som denna endpoint är starten: http://instagram.com/developer/endpoints/tags/#get_tags_media_recent

Och sen: http://instagram.com/developer/endpoints/users/#get_users Går den att använda med endast ett klient id?
