The Instagram parser gives you an easy interface to parse all the Instagram's data. Like an API, but without being it! You can get posts by a tag, all user posts

composer require aunhurian/instagram-parser:dev-master

Before run your parsers, you first need a query hash. Follow this 5 steps to get yours: How to get a query hash.

Let's parse all data tagged with the string "github" for instance. You will get a scaled infinite loop of posts related to it until they are finished.

use Mineur\InstagramParser\Instagram;
use Mineur\InstagramParser\Model\InstagramPost;

$queryHash = '298b92c8d7cad703f7565aa892ede943';

Instagram::createTagParser($queryHash)
    ->parse('github', function(InstagramPost $post) {
        dump($post);
    });

Since Instagram has restricted its API only to registered and verified applications, you can't get all of its public data being an experimental user or a data science analyst who just wants to play with that, you only have access to the API sandbox mode.

So I decided to create an alternative parser on top of GuzzleHttp library to access to the entire data with a nice interface.

For more information about this library see the docs.
