instagram-ruby-gem

As Instagram's own Ruby client, it ensures reliable access to their REST and Search APIs with standardized methods, reducing integration risks.

Wraps key Instagram endpoints for media, users, locations, and tags, including pagination and rate limit handling, as shown in the extensive sample application.

Handles OAuth 2.0 flow out-of-the-box, abstracting token management complexities, evident in the Sinatra example with authorize_url and get_access_token calls.
