Instagram Photo Wall

This is a plugin for Hexo to pull in your own images from Instagram.

Before you can use this plugin, you must obtain an access token from Instagram.

Usage

To use, install as usual on your Hexo site:

npm install hexo-instagram-wall --save

Then, follow these steps:

1. In your _config.yml, make settings for this plugin like this:

   instagramWall:  
     enable: true  

2. Save your access token as an environment variable named INSTAGRAM_WALL_TOKEN. Optionally, you can save this in your _config.yml:

   instagramWall:  
     enable: true  
     access_token: XXXXXXXXX  

3. (Optional) Create your display settings. If you create settings here, they will be used for all instances of Instagram Wall on your website. However, you can also override these settings for each instance you create (see the next step for details).

   instagramWall:  
     enable: true  
     requestedCount: 18  
     itemsPerRow: 3  
     showCaption: true  
     displayStyle: 'flex' | 'column' | 'custom'  
     gutterSize: '10px'  
     overlayColor: 'black'  
     textColor: 'white'  

4. Add the tag to your template:
   <%- instagramWall() ->
   Or, override default display settings:
   <%- instagramWall(requestedCount, itemsPerRow, showCaption, overlayColor, textColor, displayStyle, gutterSize) ->
   For example, to show 5 items in a single column whilst hiding the captions:
   <%- instagramWall(5, 1, false) ->

Description of option settings

The globally defined settings are used for all instances of Instagram Wall that you put in your template files. However, you can override these settings for each individual usage. (See the Usage directions above).

Since the settings can be overridden for each usage, it is possible for you to add as many instances of this plugin on each page as you need. For example, one wall can be added to a sidebar on your website, and another can be added to the main content area.
