There are a plenty of libraries written in Python dedicated to Instagram APIs (public or ***private***, no matter).. but most of them have unsolved issues and PR not maintained for a time as long as 5-6 months.

At the same time lots of developers want a simple and effective way to post/**upload** an photo/**image** **programmatically**.
