MMM-Instagram - Pull and animate photos from Instagram feed

[yo-less]

@dr0pb0x Have you tried using my forked version here:
https://github.com/yo-less/MMM-Instagram

[yo-less]

@dr0pb0x I’ve tried it with my forked version after changing the module to simply retrieve any picture from the internet. It’s working fine.
The only limitation is that you can’t set the MaxHeight in relative terms (percentages), other than that, it works as intended as far as I can tell without actually using the API.

@yo-less I just had a chance to try it out and it still doesn’t work for me. Could it possibly be Instagram’s API?

Is there anyway to display images from my home server? And do someone have an idea how I should write the code?

[yo-less]

@dr0pb0x Anything is possible, but I doubt it. Please have @kapsolas help you with this, as I don’t have any direct way of testing it. As far as I’m concerned my code adjustments should work.

Awesome work! My SO is very pleased with this idea. You might want to add a screenshot to the repo.

Some of us are having issues here… little help please.

Installed per instructions with NPM Install and it isn’t working.

That’s all mine says too… “Loading…”

apparently this is an unsupported module… delete.

I just started up my mirror again and the instagram module loaded up correctly.

Are you use that you have configured the token correctly?

Additionally, install a tool like firebug on your browser and try to access the mirror using the browser. Then enable firebug. It will have error messages or plugin messages written to the console.

If the plugin gets images and starts to display them, you will get console entries such as: incrementing the activeItem and refreshing

Well we’re certainly glad it worked for you…however…

{
module: ‘MMM-Instagram’,
position: ‘top_right’,
config: {
access_token: ‘API_KEY from instagram’,
count: 200,
min_timestamp: 0,
animationSpeed: 2500,
updateInterval: 12500
}
},

Replaced ‘API_KEY …’

and followed all directions and it still sits there and says “Loading…”…

Same

What are you guys seeing in the console log? If you are not anything… then I will have to send you a version of the module with debug comments in it to see where the issue is.

FYI - I had a similar issue with the Module for Traffic and never solved it. It just sat on Loading…

[cowboysdude]

@kapsolas Well gosh darn it LOL SOLVE IT MAN! Lives are hangin in the balance…

No I have run it in dev mode and I see or get no errors… so perhaps using a version with debug would be best :)

[cowboysdude]

OH I stand corrected… here’s an error:

How do you get it to show in a browser??

restart your mirror like this:

npm start dev

cool thanks

@wjdw87 You’re welcome :) NOW if he can solve the problem it’ll work! :)

Hmm. that tempimpage variable is not found in my code.

Did you modify the code at all? The code should look as below. In the error message it shows tempimpage which is not a valid variable. This would cause the script to not work.

   var tempimage = this.images.photo[this.activeItem];
    
    // image
    var imageLink = document.createElement('div');
    imageLink.id = "MMM-Instagram-image";
    imageLink.innerHTML = "<img src='" + tempimage.photolink + "'>";
    
    imageDisplay.appendChild(imageLink);
    wrapper.appendChild(imageDisplay);
