hallward

A little F# library for uploading images via Instagram's private API

This is basically just a (partial) port of https://github.com/mr0re1/pynstagram. It uses Instagram's private API, which they don't want you to do, so use at your own risk.

Usage

open System.IO
open System.Net

open Hallward.Uploader

[<EntryPoint>]
let main argv = 
    async {
        printf "(login) "
        let! loginRes = Session.login "username" "password"
        printf "%i %s\n" (int loginRes.Code) loginRes.Reason
        if loginRes.Value.IsNone then return () else

        let client = loginRes.Value.Value
        use image = new FileStream(@"C:\path\to\whatever.jpg", FileMode.Open)
        printf "(upload) "
        let! uploadRes = Session.upload client "whatever.jpg" image
        printf "%i %s\n" (int uploadRes.Code) uploadRes.Reason
        if uploadRes.Code <> HttpStatusCode.OK then return () else

        printf "(configure) "
        let! configureRes = Session.configure client uploadRes.Value.Value "caption"
        printf "%i %s\n" (int configureRes.Code) configureRes.Reason
