First of all, great work you've done.

Would it be possible for you to add 'play_count' to benefit in Reels. For example you could add it like this.

Replace

'likes' => @ $item['like_count'],

With

'likes' => @ $item['like_count'],
'plays' => @ $item['play_count'],

Personally to me it would be even more beneficial to add a "raw" option, so I could output just the Raw Instagram JSON.

Hello, I was using your code. it was working smooth until i got today message from instagram.
they have suspended my account. can we prevent this?

Any chance you could package this up for packagist? Currently the install instructions are just composer install which does nothing. If you can submit it to https://packagist.org/ it can be installed / managed like other project packages rather then getting into my project source.

(Great work making this btw, I want to track basic stats per month from IG and they make it so annoying to do automatically)

Thanks to this API, we can only see the shares in the form of a timeline. How can we see how many likes or comments a specific post has?

Hi,
i have tried this many times and Instagram cookies expired after a certain time and no. of requests.

whats the solution you have for this ?
