Missing client_id or access_token URL parameter

[eldyvoon]

I got this error executing below code :

OAuthParameterException occurred: Missing client_id or access_token URL parameter. in _request

var instagram_client_id = '43345435345';
var instagram_client_secret = '4354565564';
var instagram_access_token = '3454656.3443532f0e6524'

instagram.set('client_id', instagram_client_id);
instagram.set('client_secret', instagram_client_secret);
instagram.set("access_token", instagram_access_token);

app.post('/subscribe', function(req, res){
instagram.tags.recent({
name: current_tag,
count: 1,
complete: function(data){
console.log(data)
}
});

});

I've seen a similar error: Missing access_token URL parameter.. It was fixed by adding one line to_request_ in class.instagram.js:

options['headers']['Content-Length'] = post_data.length;
options['headers']['Content-Type'] = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'; // this is the new line

I think this project might be abandoned, but if not I'm happy to do a PR.

Looks like with

Instagram.set('access_token', IG_TOKEN)

instead of client_id and client_secret, you can set the access token. But you need to get your access token by some other ways.
