I have an alternate package that works:

package main
import "github.com/89z/mech/instagram"

func main() {
   login, err := instagram.NewLogin(username, password)
   if err != nil {
      panic(err)
   }
   items, err := login.Items("CaDMviujr4q")
   if err != nil {
      panic(err)
   }
   for _, item := range items {
      println(item.Caption.Text)
   }
}

where is this suppose to go ?
