top9.py

"""
An Instagram Top 9 generator that doesn't require connecting your account
to an untrustworthy 3rd party Instagram app.

Install the requirements with `pip3 install igramscraper Pillow click`
then run `python3 top9.py`

When done, you will have a YOURUSERNAME-top9.jpg in your working directory.

Hmm not sure what I'm doing wrong. it seems to install fine (but I have to modify "pip3" to "pip" But then when I run python3 top9.p nothing appears to happen (no error msg) I am using ConEmu to run python scripts not sure if I need to change the working directory or sth? [image: image.png]

[image: ] Also -- removing the post.type filter lets you pull multi-image posts (sidecars) and videos as well. :) and post.type == post.TYPE_IMAGE ah, didn't think of mutlimage, but I figured video probably wouldn't be that useful tho. — You are receiving this because you were mentioned.

Huh, that's odd. I don't think there's any issue with conemu. If you're using python3 top9.py maybe try the pip install as python3 -m pip install igramscraper Pillow click. But it's still very odd that it does nothing. I'd expect at least an error 🤔

Yeah still nothing. Don't worry about it! I am probably doing something weird on my end.

Currently broken due to https://github.com/realsirjoe/instagram-scraper/issues/158

Oops, actually still works fine without login, but bc of the change from @ahota, you couldn't actually not login. I've changed it so that password is only by prompt, and you specify the desire to login by using the --login-user flag.

Just doing a 2021 check in to say: Still works!

Is it weird that I used this to test my terminal was working on an old computer? probably. sorry.
