Using the library

Cookie-based Authentication - Beta

import * as instaStory from 'ionic-insta-api-wrapper';

const username = 'your_instagram_username';
const password = 'your_instagram_password';

// 🔐 Get Instagram session cookie (with optional force refetch)
const refetchCookie = true;
const userDetails = await instaStory.getCookie(username, password, refetchCookie);

// 💾 Save cookie & expiration for reuse
localStorage.setItem('cookie', userDetails.cookie);
localStorage.setItem('expires', userDetails.expires);

// 📲 Initialize InstaService with your session cookie
const igService = new instaStory.InstaService(userDetails.cookie);

Token Authentication

import * as instaStory from 'ionic-insta-api-wrapper';

const username = 'your_instagram_username';
const password = 'your_instagram_password';

// 🔐 Get Instagram auth token
let userDetails: any;
let loginService = new instaStory.LoginService();
const reqHeaders = {
  'User-Agent': 'Instagram 177.0.0.30.119 Android (18/4.3; 320dpi; 720x1280; Xiaomi; HM 1SW; armani; qcom; en_US)',
}

try {
  userDetails = await loginService.login(username, password, reqHeaders);
}catch(e: any) {
  const parsed = JSON.parse(e);
  if (parsed.two_factor_required) {
    // 2FA required
    const info = parsed.two_factor_info;
    userDetails = await loginService.login2FA(password, twoFactorAppCode, twoFactorIdentifier, username, reqHeaders);
  }
}

// 💾 Save userDetails for reuse
localStorage.setItem('userDetails', userDetails);

// 📲 Initialize InstaService
const igService = new instaStory.InstaService();
/**
