# Insta - Power tool for Instagram.

Insta is a command line power tool for Instagram. With it, you can like, follow, comment and query Instagram.

# Motivation

There're plenty of Instagram automation tools floating around the web and app stores. Most of them, however, ask for your username and password which poses a big safety risk.

With insta, you can automate engagement yourself.

# How do i install it ?

* ``` git clone https://github.com/hemantasapkota/insta ```
* ``` go  get . && go build ```

# Usage

You can specify credentials inline or via a file.

* Inline credentials
``` insta -username user1  -password pass1 ```

* Create a **.credentials.yaml** file. Sample content below.

```yaml
acc1:
    username: user1
    password: pass1

acc2:
    username: user2
    password: pass2

```

``` insta -account acc1 ```

Insta can be used anonynously using the test account. Test account is also a great way to quicky script flows.

``` insta -username test -password test ```

# Features

* Interactive console
* Manage multiple accounts
* Database log
* Built-in DSL for scripting flows

# Flows

Insta comes with a built-in DSL that can be used to script flows. Example flow listed below:

```
$(get_data path=explore/tags/coffee => result)
$(loop range=0,5 => i)
  $(filter var=result query=entry_data.TagPage[0].graphql.hashtag.edge_hashtag_to_media.edges[$(`i`)].node.display_url => url)
  $(download url="$(`url`)")
$(pool)

```

The script queries for the tag *coffee*, loops through the result 5 times, filters the image url from the result and downloads it.
See the examples folder for more sample scripts.

To the run examples using test account:

``` ./insta -silent -json -username test -password test -execFile=examples/insta_01.iml ```

# Roadmap

* True automation
* CLI app
* Mobile apps ( IOS & Android )
* Chrome extension
