[Enchancment] Ability to pass a .txt file
Closed this issue · 7 comments
Hi,
Could you add an argument so it would be possible to pass a .txt file containing id numbers of instagram users (one in each line) ?
The script would produce a .txt of usernames
And please add a timeout between each api call

Thank you for your suggestion ❤
List lookup add to code 3cc9882
And please add a timeout between each api call
Is there any limitation on Instagram API call?
I don't understand why you need to set timeout for api call.
@Snbig you’re the best for all these updates!! <3
@Snbig Thanks for the quick update.
Yep, there’s a limit on instagrap api calls, and I’m not sure what is it.
You can try to call some functions 2000 times without timeout, and you will get a messege from instagram “ an error occured please try again later”.
By the way, could add anothet option to export the results as an excel file? First coloumn with user id, and second one with the username
The script crashed on second run.
I though I would test what would happen if you enter a some active user ids in .txt file and mix those with a user id of temporarily deactivated account.
Here's my input file:
input.txt:
8163012263
11216025632
command used
python InstaTracker.py -f input.txt
output:
C:\Users\Test\Desktop>python InstaTracker.py -f input.txt
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "InstaTracker.py", line 112, in
main()
File "InstaTracker.py", line 75, in main
username = useridToUsername(e)
File "InstaTracker.py", line 45, in useridToUsername
username = json.loads(r3)['data']['user']['reel']['user']['username']
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable
@Snbig any idea why it crashed?
