# MGInstagram

MGInstagram is a iOS Utility for posting Images to Instagram from your app.

#### The Process

- An "openInMenu" is displayed when attempting to post a picture. (Currently the only way to post to instagram)

- The user will have a choice to cancel or to select Instagram

- If the user selects Instagram, the user will be taken to the Instagram app with their Image.

## Setup

CocoaPods is recommended.

#### CocoaPods

- Add `pod 'MGInstagram', 'X.X.X'` in your `Podfile`.  Fill in `X.X.X` with the latest pod spec version or `:head` if you live dangerously.

- import `#import ` Into your desired file.

#### Manual

- Drag and drop the MGInstagram Folder into your iOS project

- import `#import "MGInstagram.h"` into the file you plan on using MGInstagram

## MGInstagram Available Methods

```objc  

//Create an instance

self.instagram = [[MGInstagram alloc] init];

//Set the photo file name

//The following will present various options including Instagram

self.instagram.photoFileName = @"TempPhoto.png";

//The following will only show Instagram as an option

self.instagram.photoFileName = kInstagramOnlyPhotoFileName;

//Checks to see user has the instagram app installed

//Returns YES if user does have the app

[MGInstagram isAppInstalled];

//Post UIImage to Instagram

//Presents an "openInMenu" model in the UIView specified  

//User is only given Instagram as an option

[self.instagram postImage:image inView:self.view];

//You can also post with a caption!

[self.instagram postImage:image withCaption:@"This is an #MGInstagram Caption Test" inView:self.view];

//Checks if the UIImage is at least 612x612 pixels.

//Instagram upscales photos below this resolution, so it is

//recommended to ONLY allow for photos above 612x612 to ensure good quality.

//However, this is your choice whether or not to check.

//Returns YES if correct size

[MGInstagram isImageCorrectSize:image];

```

### Example Usage

```objc  

UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"MyImageName.png"];

if ([MGInstagram isAppInstalled] && [MGInstagram isImageCorrectSize:image]) {

    [self.instagram postImage:image inView:self.view];

}

else {

   	NSLog(@"Error Instagram is either not installed or image is incorrect size");

}

```
