**Grab the good bits back from the insta-blob.**

A module and command line tool for downloading images from instagram

## Install globally

```shell
npm install -g instagrab
```

If at first you don't succeed, [`sudo` make me a sandwich](http://xkcd.com/149/).

## Grab images

```shell
instagrab vO9hvHpxuH
```

Will dig out the the image for shortcode [`vO9hvHpxuH`](http://instagram.com/p/vO9hvHpxuH/) and bismirch your storage with a regular instangle like so

## Grab urls

Rather curl and pipe your own bits? No worries.

```shell
instagrab --url ulMpTsPaEn
http://photos-a.ak.instagram.com/hphotos-ak-xfp1/10727611_525504890919008_1579977286_n.jpg

curl $(instagrab --url ulMpTsPaEn) > whizzo-jnr.jpg
```

)](http://instagram.com/p/ulMpTsPaEn/)

## Grab many & choose your size

Specify multiple shortcodes for multi grabbing. Specify a `--size` for `t`humbnail, `m`edium or `l`arge images.

```shell
instagrab vyrjLFJxmE vyp4M_JxqH vyneyApxpq --size t
```
