react-native-instagram-share

react-native interface to share images and videos within instagram (iOS)

Update

Instagram does not support the caption functionality anymore => http://developers.instagram.com/post/125972775561/removing-pre-filled-captions-from-mobile-sharing

Getting started

  1. npm install react-native-instagram-share@latest --save
  2. In XCode, in the project navigator, right click Libraries ➜ Add Files to [your project's name]
  3. Go to node_modules ➜ react-native-instagram-share and add RNInstagramShare.xcodeproj
  4. In XCode, in the project navigator, select your project. Add libRNInstagramShare.a to your project's Build Phases ➜ Link Binary With Libraries
  5. Click RNInstagramShare.xcodeproj in the project navigator and go the Build Settings tab. Make sure 'All' is toggled on (instead of 'Basic'). Look for Header Search Paths and make sure it contains both $(SRCROOT)/../../react-native/React and $(SRCROOT)/../../../React - mark both as recursive.
  6. Run your project (Cmd+R)

Usage

var RNInstagramShare = require('react-native-instagram-share');

var image = 'assets-library://asset/asset.JPG?id=C4E468CC-3B82-4822-8FEE-BA1C1DC47B4B&ext=JPG';
var video = 'assets-library://asset/asset.mov?id=4D8172B1-EE3A-43D7-97BF-951003BFE97A&ext=mov';
var caption = "Test Message";
RNInstagramShare.share(video, caption);

Can be easily used together with react-native-camera (https://github.com/lwansbrough/react-native-camera)
