InstagramDownload - Instagram photo and Video Downloader
Travis
Instagram Photo and video download helper library.
New: Checkout TikTokOff - TikTok video online downloader (no watermarks)
Update on May 22, 2020: Due to Instagram no longer allowing anonymous users to view photos/videos, this library is currently not working. A new version 7 is in the works, but there is no ETA yet. Only IGTV videos are working now
Old and unsupported versions
Legacy 1.0 pre-composer
2.x branch with for PHP ^7.1
3.x branch with for PHP ^7.2
Old and minimally supported versions
4.x branch with for PHP ^7.3
I wrote this class mainly for my online Instagram photo, video and IGTV downloader, but I thought share this piece for your own extensions.
Validates Instagram URL (domain validation, URL path validation).
Uses OG properties to detect the image and video URL.
Supports Instagram photos, videos, and Instagram TV videos
Verbose error reporting with proper exceptions.
Full unit tests
No dependencies other than PHP curl extension (which is most likely enabled by already)
Requirements
PHP 7.4
Curl
Thanks to:
MetaData - Meta data parsing regex and curl class.
Installation
With composer Install the library by running the following in your project.
composer require ayesh/instagram-download
Without composer Download the zip file from Github, and configure your autoload handler to autoload PSR-4 Ayesh\InstagramDownload namespace from the downloaded contents src directory.
You could also manually require the file. Requires a certain amount of guilty feeling because it's 2017 and you are not using a decent autoload mechanism.
require_once 'src/InstagramDownload.php'
Usage
getDownloadUrl(); // Returns the download URL.
$type = $client->getType(); // Returns "image" or "video" depending on the media type.
}
catch (\InvalidArgumentException $exception) {
/*
* \InvalidArgumentException exceptions will be thrown if there is a validation
* error in the URL. You might want to break the code flow and report the error
* to your form handler at this point.
*/
$error = $exception->getMessage();
}
catch (\RuntimeException $exception) {
/*
* \RuntimeException exceptions will be thrown if the URL could not be
* fetched, parsed, or a media could not be extracted from the URL.
*/
$error = $exception->getMessage();
}
