Threads Client Ruby

Unofficial, Reverse-Engineered Ruby client for Meta's Threads.

Getting Started

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'threads_client_ruby'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install threads_client_ruby

Usage

🌀 Config Threads

Using username and password (first time)

credentials = {
  username: "Instagram's username",
  password: "Instagram's password"
}

ThreadsClientRuby.config do |config|
  config.credentials = credentials
end

Using usertoken and userid (get from here)

credentials = {
  usertoken: "token received after login successfull",
  userid: "Instagram's user id"
}

ThreadsClientRuby.config do |config|
  config.credentials = credentials
end

💡 TIP: Using usertoken and userid to avoid Theard rate limit and decrease response time.

🤖 Get usertoken and userid

  userinfo = ThreadsClientRuby.get_userinfo
  # {
  #   :usertoken=> "eyJkc191c2VyX2lkIjoiNTgzOTIyMTY....",
  #   :userid=>"583922..."
  # }
