如何使用python-instagram接收实时Instagram更新？

Question

I just wanted to know how to receive RealTime Update the update from python-instagram

It's actually a Flask application and hosted in Google Cloud VM. So far so good. I can subscribe to the particular tag or user . And I think instagram post the update to my server.

173.252.105.114 - - [19/Oct/2015:01:40:52 -0400] "POST /hook/instagram HTTP/1.1" 301 517 "-" "Python-httplib2/0.8 (gzip)"
173.252.108.115 - - [19/Oct/2015:01:40:53 -0400] "POST /hook/instagram HTTP/1.1" 301 517 "-" "Python-httplib2/0.8 (gzip)"
173.252.108.119 - - [19/Oct/2015:01:41:31 -0400] "POST /hook/instagram HTTP/1.1" 301 517 "-" "Python-httplib2/0.8 (gzip)"
173.252.113.116 - - [19/Oct/2015:01:41:41 -0400] "POST /hook/instagram HTTP/1.1" 301 517 "-" "Python-httplib2/0.8 (gzip)"

So I guess using the reactor is best way to receive and I did something like this ....

""" Hook for real time update """
def process_tag_update(update):
    new = RealUpdate(update['subscription_id'], updata['object_id'], update['object'])
    db.session.add(new)
    db.session.commit()
    print 'Received a push: '

reactor = subscriptions.SubscriptionsReactor()
reactor.register_callback(subscriptions.SubscriptionType.TAG, process_tag_update)

Hook url handling ....

@app.route('/hook/instagram/',methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def hook_instagram():
    if request.method == 'POST':
        # POST event is used to for the events notifications
        x_hub_signature = request.headers.get('X-Hub-Signature')
        raw_response = request.data
        try:
            reactor.process(CLIENT_SECRET, raw_response, x_hub_signature)
        except subscriptions.SubscriptionVerifyError:
            print 'Signature mismatch'
        return 'done'
    else:
        hub_challenge =  request.args.get('hub.challenge')
        return '{}'.format(hub_challenge)

But I don't know is this the right way... I got blind what will come from process_tag_update(update) because ...

1. I can't able to print
2. i Can't able to debug

So Is anybody experiencing similar issue.. ? How to overcome this.? And also if you have any ideas to achieve please let me know..

The problem is 301 redirect. You have to make sure your real time callback URL ends with /

Ex:- /hook/instagram/
