InstagramAuth
An Android library that makes it easy to authenticate your app users with Instagram.
Download
In your project's top-level build.gradle
file, ensure that JitPack's Maven repository is included:
allprojects {
repositories {
maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
}
}
Then, in your app-level build.gradle
file, declare InstagramAuth
as a dependency:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.nikolajakshic:instagramauth:1.1.1'
}
If you are not using AndroidX, migrate to it.
Usage
Add CLIENT_ID
and REDIRECT_URI
to your AndroidManifest.xml
file:
. . .
<meta-data
android:name="com.nikola.jakshic.instagramauth.ClientId"
android:value="YOUR_CLIENT_ID"/>
<meta-data
android:name="com.nikola.jakshic.instagramauth.RedirectUri"
android:value="YOUR_REDIRECT_URI"/>
</application>
</manifest>
Call AuthManager.getInstance().login()
to launch an Activity
that will, using WebView
, prompt the User to log in with Instagram:
AuthManager.getInstance().login(this, new AuthManager.LoginCallback() {
@Override
public void onSuccess() {
// User successfully logged in, get him to the Home screen or something...
}
@Override
public void onError(InstagramAuthException e) {
if (e instanceof InstagramAuthAccessDeniedException) {
// User denied access, do something...
}
if (e instanceof InstagramAuthNetworkOperationException) {
// Network problem, do something...
}
}
});
Pass the Activity
's result back to the AuthManager
:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, @Nullable Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
AuthManager.getInstance().onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
Use the AuthManager.getInstance().getUserInfoAsync()
(for synchronous execution, use getUserInfo()
) method to request basic profile information for the currently signed in User:
AuthManager.getInstance().getUserInfoAsync(new AuthManager.Callback<UserInfo>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(UserInfo userInfo) {
String id = userInfo.getId();
String userName = userInfo.getUserName();
String fullName = userInfo.getFullName();
String photoUrl = userInfo.getPhotoUrl();
. . .
}
@Override
public void onError(InstagramAuthException e) {
if (e instanceof InstagramAuthTokenException) {
// Instagram expires the token after some period of time,
// so we need to re-authenticate the User. When this happens,
// library is automatically logging User out, i.e. the old token is removed
// and AuthManager.getInstance().isLoggedIn() returns false.
//
// Prompt the User to log in again.
}
if (e instanceof InstagramAuthNetworkOperationException) {
// Network problem, do something...
}
}
});
Optionally, customize library's Activity
appearance by overriding the InstagramAuthTheme
style in your styles.xml
file:
. . .
<style name="InstagramAuthTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<!-- set toolbar color -->
<item name="colorPrimary">#f44336</item>
<!-- set status bar color-->
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">#d32f2f</item>
<!-- set title -->
<item name="instagram_auth_title">Login with Instagram</item>
</style>
</resources>
