I know that there is no api function to send the photo. But maybe there are some methods to do this from JS?

Now Instagram does allow Content Publishing from their API.
Example from docs:
API Example
Let's say you have a photo at https://www.example.com/images/bronz-fonz.jpg that you want to publish with the hashtag "#BronzFonz" as its caption. You could use the POST /{ig-user-id}/media endpoint to create the container like this:
Sample Request
POST graph.facebook.com/17841400008460056/media
?image_url=https//www.example.com/images/bronz-fonz.jpg
&caption=#BronzFonz
This would return a container ID (let's say 17889455560051444), which you would then publish using the POST /{ig-user-id}/media_publish endpoint, like this:
Sample Request
POST graph.facebook.com/17841405822304914/media_publish
?creation_id=17889455560051444
Wrapping those with JS shouldn't be a problem.
var userFeed = new Instafeed({
get: 'user',
target: "instafeed-container",
resolution: 'low_resolution',
accessToken: 'your generated token'
});
userFeed.run();a img {
width: 25%;
