Instagram Like, Comment and Follow Automation Script

Automation Script for "farming" Likes, Comments and Followers on Instagram.
Implemented in Python using the Selenium module.

Example

from instapy import InstaPy

InstaPy(username='test', password='test')\
  .login()\
  .set_do_comment(True, percentage=10)\
  .set_comments(['Cool!', 'Awesome!', 'Nice!'])\
  .set_dont_include(['friend1', 'friend2', 'friend3'])\
  .set_dont_like(['food', 'girl', 'hot'])\
  .set_ignore_if_contains(['pizza'])\
  .like_by_tags(['dog', '#cat'], amount=100)\
  .end()

It's easy to use and the built in delays prevent your account from getting banned. (Just make sure you don't like 1000s of post/day)

Getting started

Make sure to replace the chromedriver file in assets with the one for your system.
cd InstaPy
pip install .

or

cd InstaPy
python setup.py install

If you want the script to get the username and password for your environment, you can do:

export INSTA_USER="<Your username>"
export INSTA_PW="<Your password>"

from instapy import InstaPy

#if you don't provide arguments, the script will look for INSTA_USER and INSTA_PW in the environment

session = InstaPy(username='test', password='test')
session.login()

#likes 100 posts of dogs

session.like_by_tags(['#dog'], amount=100)
session.like_from_image(url='www.instagram.com/image', amount=100)

session.end()
Restricting Likes
#searches the description for the given words and won't
# like the image if one of the words are in there

session.set_dont_like(['food', 'eat', 'meal'])
Ignoring Restrictions
#will ignore the don't like if the description contains
# one of the given words

session.set_ignore_if_contains(['glutenfree', 'french', 'tasty'])
Commenting
#default enabled=False, ~ every 4th image will be commented on

session.set_do_comment(enabled=True, percentage=25)
session.set_comments(['Awesome', 'Really Cool', 'I like your stuff'])
Following
#default enabled=False, follows ~ every 10th user from the images, times=1 (only follows a user once (if unfollowed again))

session.set_do_follow(enabled=True, percentage=10, times=2)
Excluding friends
#will prevent commenting on and unfollowing your good friends (the images will still be liked)

session.set_dont_include(['friend1', 'friend2', 'friend3'])
Unfollowing
#unfollows 10 of the accounts your following -> instagram will only unfollow 10 before you'll be 'blocked for 10 minutes' (if you enter a higher number than 10 it will unfollow 10, then wait 10 minutes and will continue then)

session.unfollow_users(amount=10)

Clarifai ImageAPI

Note: Head over to https://developer.clarifai.com/signup/ and create a free account, once you're logged in go to https://developer.clarifai.com/account/applications/ and create a new application. You can find the client ID and Secret there. You get 5000 API-calls free/month.

If you want the script to get your Clarifai_ID and Clarifai_Secret for your environment, you can do:

export CLARIFAI_ID="<ProjectID>"
export CLARIFAI_SECRET="<Project Secret>"

Example with Imagecontent handling

from instapy import InstaPy

InstaPy(username='test', password='test')\
  .login()\
  .set_do_comment(True, percentage=10)\
  .set_comments(['Cool!', 'Awesome!', 'Nice!'])\
  .set_dont_include(['friend1', 'friend2', 'friend3'])\
  .set_dont_like(['food', 'girl', 'hot'])\
  .set_ignore_if_contains(['pizza'])\
  .set_use_clarifai(enabled=True)\
  .clarifai_check_img_for(['nsfw'])\
  .clarifai_check_img_for(['food', 'lunch', 'dinner'], comment=True, comments=['Tasty!', 'Nice!', 'Yum!'])\
  .like_by_tags(['dog', '#cat'], amount=100)\
  .end()
Enabling Imagechecking
#default enabled=False , enables the checking with the clarifai api (image tagging)
#if secret and proj_id are not set, it will get the environment Variables
# 'Clarifai_SECRET' and 'CLARIFAI_ID'

session.set_use_clarifai(enabled=True, secret='xyz', proj_id='123')
Filtering inappropriate images
# uses the clarifai api to check if the image contains nsfw content
# -> won't comment if image is nsfw

session.clarifai_check_img_for(['nsfw'])
Specialized comments for images with specific content
#checks the image for keywords food and lunch, if found,
#comments with the given comments

session.clarifai_check_img_for(['food', 'lunch'], comment=True, comments=['Tasty!', 'Yum!'])
