An Instagram Scraper made in python
- A Unix based OS (I'm using Arch linux)
- Chrome / chromium based browser (I hate it too)
- Chrome WebDriver (needs to match chrome version see chrome://verson)
- Python and pip
- Selenium (pip install selenium)
- Discord.py (pip install discord.py)
- instaMeta
- Put the discord bot token on line 1 of config.py
- Invite the bot into your discord server
- Change your Chrome WebDriver location by doing
!driverpath chromedriver
(if you installed the chrome webdriver as a package just put chromedriver)- Of course change the prefix and chromedriver
- Put the filepath you want to save the files to by doing
!path /hdd/media/
- Change the time between scrolls (in seconds) by doing
!scrolltime 5
(I found 5 seconds to be the best) - Run it by doing
python instaScraper.py
