instapy-gui's Issues

Instapy Gui - Wrong Login Data

Constantly getting "wrong login data" error after using multiple different instagram profiles.

On my Instagram app I also get "suspicious login attempt" where I need to verify it was me who tried to login.

Any advice?

Can't run on Raspberry pi 3

pi@raspberrypi:~/InstaPy $ sudo docker-compose up
Creating network "instapy_instapy-net" with driver "bridge"
Creating volume "instapy_instapy-data" with default driver
Creating volume "instapy_instapy-mongo" with default driver

Creating volume "instapy_instapy-influxdb" with default driver
Pulling mongo (mongo:latest)...
latest: Pulling from library/mongo
ERROR: no matching manifest for unknown in the manifest list entries

Any ideas for this? I did some searching and it seems like the problem is related to arm64 vs aarch64?

Reloading instapy.io leads to a 404

Doesn't work on my Chromium browser. ⌘R on any page, and it gives me the 404 page.

Otherwise good work, Felix.

`start` function in /services/sockets does not get called

I've been debuging on this for days. I managed to setup anything, however there is still on problem left I'm not able to solve.

Once clicked onto the start button in the /start page (after selecting all the proper information) the front-end sends two messages to the instapy container, one with the start request and the other with the status request.

Both requests reaches the on_message() func in /service/instapy/main.py but only the status one gets forwarded to the proper handling function. The start request reaches the line 40 HANDLERS[data['handler']](ws, data) but the function start is not being called.

After debuging it looks like both data['handler'] and HANDLERS[data['handler']] have correct values. The execution just terminates at that line without calling the start function and without even continue the execution (line 41 etc.)

Have you ever experienced this issue?

don't start

Hi, I install on windows and open localhost without any problem.
But when I start it, do'nt happen anything.
please help me

Follow private accounts

Hello @breuerfelix
InstaPy GUI has helped me alot for building Instagram profils, but I can't figure out how to deactivate skipping private accounts. As in my country lots of users prefer to stay private than have public profils. I know it's a command session.set_skip_users(skip_private=False , as I read in the @timgrossmann documentation but I can't seem to find it on the GUI, is there any files I need to edit on my Mac ?
I appreciate the help in advance. Thank you!

• interact_user_followers got the same problem for the field usernames
• there are some problems with the css style of the input field for usernames and tags. it only displays 10 chars

gui-features link no more working

Hey man,
in other to run /services/actions there are python requirements to install. One of them it's https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy/zipball/gui-features, however it's not working anymore.

Is there an alternative to initialize the db? Can i find the content of this url somewhere else?

multiple bots console output

When running multiple bots it would be great if the console output would only show the output of the selected bot. Currently it displays all outpus from all running bots in the same window.

Is there a way to run with multiple accounts?

I'm trying to run the bot with more than one account but didn't find how to do this. Can anybody help-me?

error: Connection is already closed.

When trying to run startClient.sh on a new machine, I always get the following output:

authenticate {username} to {url} ...
logged in with user: {username}
opened socket
goto instapy.io and take off!
received message: {"error":"Error validating token!"}
error: Connection is already closed.
closed socket

And then, it repeats starting from opened socket
Is anybody able to help me on this one?

template editing issue

Back with another bug?
When trying to edit settings via the gui (e.g quota supervisor) hitting the save button doesn't do anything in my case.
The old settings always get restored.

Got it installed on Raspberry Pi but it doesn't run. Wrong Chromedriver?

First of all what a great update!
but I do get these errors:

I do have other containers that connect to the internet just fine.
I've found this message to be sometimes related to the script itself, however it is a bit tricky to edit it if container shuts down immediately. Any thoughts on how to address this?

Problem with GeckoDriver on Raspbian (Raspberry 3)

Hi

I can't get over the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bot.py", line 125, in <module>
    session = InstaPy(**instapy_args)
  File "/root/tmp/env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/instapy/instapy.py", line 319, in __init__

    raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename)
OSError: [Errno 8] Exec format error: '/root/tmp/assets/InstaPy/assets/geckodriver'

Steps to reproduce it:

1. wget update.sh
2. bash update.sh
3. bash setup.sh
4. bash startClient.sh

Now the assets folder is created and the error occurs the first time.

5. source ./env/bin/activate
6. python3 -m pip uninstall instapy-chromedriver

This results in "instapy-chromedriver is not installed"

7. python3 -m pip install --user instapy-chromedriver==2.36.post0

The problem still is there

8. wget chromedriver
9. unzip chromedriver-v3.0.0-beta.5-linux-armv7l.zip
10. chmod 755 chromedriver
11. chmod +x chromedriver
12. sudo apt-get remove chromium

Still it seems the startClient.sh tries to use the geckodriver.

Things I'm confused about is, I can't find instapy-chromedriver in ./env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/ due to the fact, that I used the --user flag

can i use this in Linux?

hi, can i use this code in linux?

Any option to not Skip Private users ?

Hello,
i have made everything works, but it seems like the process is always skipping private users :

Not a valid user: #### is private account, by default skip

is there any solution how to change it ?

Regards

No module named dotenv

Hi,
As the title says, I'm getting error no module dotenv.
I've tried python3 -m pip install python-dotenv, and even though it installed ok, I still get the error when I run startClient.sh?

Thanks

Docker issue with gecko driver

Getting this error when running instapy-client on docker

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

So I added geckdriver to /usr/local/bin/geckodriver and the same happens.
Finally I rename /usr/local/bin/geckodriver and create a dummy "executable" touch geckodriver and the error changes.. so not a path problem.
When I try to execute manually geckodriver I find the culprit:
/usr/local/bin # geckodriver sh: geckodriver: not found
So the problem goes deeper, is something related to this:
unix.stackexchange post
So when I look into the /lib folder on the container the only ld**.so I find is ld-musl-x86_64.so.1.
Quick google search later and that is Alpine linux. Meaning of course I cant run some stuff because this is as bare linux as it gets.

And the I found the Dockerfile in the /usr/instapy folder and indeed the image being used is python:3-alpine.

Thing is there is no repo to submit a fix for the client, the only repo is for the GUI. I find that baffling since great part of work you did here has a lot to do with the client. By the way awesome work.

EDIT: finally found the services folder, maybe make that another repo?
EDIT2: Also find it very weird that instapy attempts to use Gecko when wherever I look this is configured for chrome driver. That wouldn't solve it in my opinion though because chrome driver also fails to execute due to the alpine thing.

Scheduling, multiple accounts & setup

Hey Felix,

is there a way to schedule the execution of scripts? How would I automate it for daily execution? I don't want to click run every day :)

Also how would I handle multiple instances? Do I need a virtual environment and login on instapy.io for each instance?

How about a way of exporting and importing templates? It's pretty tedious setting everything up if you use multiple parameters. Also the tags, comments etc. field won't let me paste multiple entries at once. Is there a trick?

Thanks again for the great work put into this!

headless browser support

So first of all, thanks for this awesome project! :)
As you might have noticed lately, ig seems to block headless browsers after a while... So I tried to set headless_browser = False in start.py but get this error :

I noticed you're not using the instapy-chromedriver, could that be the reason?

instapy exited with code 1

Hi guys,
I am facing an issue while running docker-compose.

While running docker-compose up, the last message received:"instapy exited with code 1" with the error message on the browser on http://localhost - ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

Thank you,
Xavier

Account blocked

Hello,

I was wondering what should I use to don't get blocked in the Instagram browser. After the script has been executed and stopped I can't use my Instagram on the browser, only on the mobile phone. It always gives the error that I can't do the action at the moment and to try later on. I can't access messages, like, post, anything.

Is it because of the IP? How long will I have to wait?

Furthermore, Shall I use the quota supervisor? Does it helps?

Looking forward to hear from you, many thanks!

Use Instapy-GUI without signing up on instapy.io

Is there a way to use Instapy-GUI without creating account on instapy.io? I don't mind running a web server to mimic instapy.io on my local machine.

[Feature Suggestion] Duplicate action

Hej everyone,

First of all congrats for the amazing project. I've been using for a few weeks and it is great! I will surely support it in the near future.

Now to the suggestion, I would be great to duplicate an action already configured in the template. That would make a lot easier the template creation.

Thanks anyways!

Cannot Start Connection to Instapy.io - RPI2

I'm on RPI2, raspbian, old instapy installation on python3 disabled at the moment:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ bash startClient.sh
File "start.py", line 64
print(f'authenticate {username} to {url} ...')
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
pi@raspberrypi:~ $

what about this error?

Question about comments

Is this the right format to enter for comments with Emojis:
u'What an amazing shot! :heart_eyes: What do you think of my recent shot?

not sure how to test this without making a fool out of myself :)

Unexcpected keyword argument

After trying to start the bot via the GUI I get the following error in console:

__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'bypass_suspicious_attempt

This might be because the argument should no longer be passed to the InstaPy constructor?

Block on likes

Hey Felix,

somehow on one of my accounts the log outputs: -------- WARNING! Image was NOT liked! You are have a BLOCK on likes! Checking the image it's really not liked.
The thing is if I manually like it works both browser and app.
Not sure if this is the right place or if I should post at instapy directly.

Cheers

It seems you dont love lowercase so much =(

I see camel cases
How often do you see them?
All the time!

PS: Just kidding, man. Please keep going this awesome project!

Problem with Selenium

I just setup the tool on a Raspberry Pi 3.
After clicking Start on instapy.io I only get the following error on my Pi.

Do you have any clue what could cause this issue? Installed firefox-esr on the Pi as well.

Thanks in advance :)
