# Instagram token fetcher

This repository offers module for Go projects to fetch instagram access tokens programmatically.

It also has a command line tool for getting access tokens.

## Usage

In code:

```

go get github.com/heppu/instagram-token-fetcher

```

```go

package main

import (

    "log"

    "github.com/heppu/instagram-token-fetcher"

    "gopkg.in/alecthomas/kingpin.v2"

)

func main() {

    tokenClient := igtoken.NewClient(

        "my-app-id",

        "http://some-url.com:8888/token",

        "some-user",

        "some-passwd",

    )

    token, err := tokenClient.GetToken(igtoken.PUBLIC_CONTENT)

    if err != nil {

        log.Fatal(err)

        return

    }

    log.Print(token)

}

```

From command line

```

go install github.com/heppu/instagram-token-fetcher/cmd/ig-token

ig-token --help

```

## How it works

First token client opens http server to listen redirect url and catch the access token. After that it creates http client with cookie jar and logins with user credentials by parsing data from html responses.
