Go Instagram Private API

Unofficial Instagram API for Golang

This repository has been forked from ahmdrz/goinsta. As the maintainer of this repositry has archived the project, and the code in the repository was based on a few year old instagram app version, since which a lot has changed, I have taken the courtesy to build upon his great framework and update the code to be compatible with apk v250.0.0.21.109 (Aug 30, 2022). Walkthrough docs can be found in the wiki.

If you are missing anything or something is not working as expected please let me know through the issues or discussions.

Features

  • HTTP2 by default. Goinsta uses HTTP2 client enhancing performance.
  • Object independency. Can handle multiple instagram accounts.
  • Like Instagram mobile application. Goinsta is very similar to Instagram official application.
  • Simple. Goinsta is made by lazy programmers!
  • Backup methods. You can use Exportand Importfunctions.
  • Security. Your password is only required to login. After login your password is deleted.
  • No External Dependencies. GoInsta will not use any Go packages outside of the standard library. goinsta now uses chromedp as headless browser driver to solve challanges and checkpoints.

Package installation

go get -u github.com/Davincible/goinsta/v3@latest

Example

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"github.com/Davincible/goinsta/v3"
)

func main() {  
  insta := goinsta.New("USERNAME", "PASSWORD")
  
  // Only call Login the first time you login. Next time import your config
  if err := insta.Login(); err != nil {
          panic(err)
  }

  // Export your configuration
  // after exporting you can use Import function instead of New function.
  // insta, err := goinsta.Import("~/.goinsta")
  // it's useful when you want use goinsta repeatedly.
  // Export is deffered because every run insta should be exported at the end of the run
  //   as the header cookies change constantly.
  defer insta.Export("~/.goinsta")

  ...
}
