Rss-bridge: Instagram Bridge Broken

[Aasemoon]

Hi there,

So I'm currently in full panic mode as my Instagram bridge has just stopped working [I use this -very- heavily]. A quick look around the web at other installations tells me that the issue is not on my end. So what's happened? Did Instagram change something? Is there a solution?

Cheers!

638 It was blocked on March 3 due to over use.

[Aasemoon]

Ok, so I'm not sure what to make of this. I generate a whole lot of instagram feeds but still it's nowhere in the vicinity of 100s. Does this mean Instagram has blocked access from all instances of RSS-Bridge altogether?

[LogMANOriginal]

Actually, #638 is specifically about Mitsu's server:

My instance (bridge . suumitsu . eu) does not provide Instagram bridge anymore since March 3, due to the heavy traffic my instance caused on a shared web hosting.

If you host your own instance of RSS-Bridge this has no impact on you. If the bridge fails for you, please see if you get messages in debug mode or entries in the servers log files. Some sample URIs of failing pages could also prove useful.

[Aasemoon]

Yes, I host my own.
I have debug mode enabled. What I see on the page is this:

</feed>

I don't see anything related to RSS-Bridge on my server error logs.

I thought this was an issue everyone was having. Do you currently have a working Instagram bridge instance?

I should probably add that I see the same message on every Instagram feed. Here's an example:

http://bridge.aasemoon.blue/?action=display&bridge=Instagram&u=astronomypicturesdaily&format=Atom

Any ideas?

P.S.: I just edited this comment and removed something I had mentioned from my server error logs. Sorry about the confusion, I just realised the error I had mentioned here has nothing at all to do with RSS-Bridge, but rather my aggregator.

Yesterday Instagram changed _sharedData.

Maybe replace
$userMedia = $data->entry_data->ProfilePage[0]->user->media->nodes;
by
$userMedia = $data->entry_data->ProfilePage[0]->graphql->user->edge_owner_to_timeline_media->edges;

Probably related:

@Aasemoon beat me to it, just confirming same result.

For giggles I tried @pintassilgo suggestion but this causes a big dump:

[pintassilgo]

Also replace
$media-> -> $media->node->
code -> shortcode
display_src -> display_url
caption -> edge_media_to_caption->edges[0]->node->text
date -> taken_at_timestamp

Not tested.

@pintassilgo THANK YOU! A very big thank you, as far as I can see that's fixed it! =D

[mbnoimi]

I've same problem. So I tried to get the recent commit but it seems this bug didn't fix yet.

[mbnoimi]

@pintassilgo I tried exactly your suggestion but unfortunately it didn't fix the bug :(

[Aasemoon]

@mbnoimi Here's mine. A quick glance doesn't show me a difference, but you're welcome to give it a try.
