Instauto is a Python package for automating various parts of Instagram, making use of the private Instagram API.
Instauto is currently fairly limited, because it is under development. Progress can be tracked here. Instauto in it's current state, should not be used for production systems.
For feature requests, ideas, comments, etc., please open an issue.
The package is still under development, but an alpha version has been published to PyPy. The package can be installed with the following pip command:
pip install instauto
Here is a simple example that extracts all followers from an Instagram account:
from instauto.api.client import ApiClient
from instauto.api.actions import post as ps
if __name__ == '__main__':
client = ApiClient("your_username", "your_password")
client.login()
like = ps.Like(
media_id="1734612737423614055_6400760974"
)
client.post_like(like)Other examples of how to use the package, can be found in the examples directory.
