kn0wm4d commented 3 years ago

What does this PR do?

Added upload_image functionality for both posts and stories

from PIL import Image
from instagram_private_api import Client

api = Client(username=...,password=...)

with Image.open('/Users/kn0wm4d/Desktop/test.jpg') as img:
   photo_data = open('/Users/kn0wm4d/Desktop/test.jpg', 'rb')
   width, height = img.size
   size = (width, height)

api.upload_image(photo_data, quality=80, size=size, caption='Test', story=False)

Why was this PR needed?

Because IG deprecated post_photo (experimental endpoint).

What are the relevant issue numbers?
