Download the zip of this repository by clicking on the green button in the upper right corner `Clone or download`.\n1. Unzip the folder and open the _installation folder_\n1. Double click the installation file for your system\n1. If you missed any installation it will tell you what you have to install\n1. Once successfully installed you can edit the quickstart file or use any of the template files from the quickstart_templates folder\n1. Insert your username and password and modify anything you want. Make use of the **[comprehensive documentation](https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy)**.\n1. The last step is to open the _run folder_ and double click the file that suits your platform, e.g. _mac_start.command_ for MacOS. \n\n\u003e If you're using one of the template files, make sure to copy and paste them into the same folder as the _quickstart.py_ file is and then rename it to _quickstart.py_ because that is the name of the file that will be chosen once you double click the run script. \n\n\n### Basic quickstart file \nTo get started quickly we've prepared a basic quickstart file in which you only have to edit the username and password, inside the single quotes, to make sure you're all set up.\nAfter testing your installation by starting InstaPy once, you can go in and use the [documentation](https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy) to configure your personal bot.\n\nThe basic quickstart file looks like this:\n```python\n\"\"\" Quickstart script for InstaPy usage \"\"\"\n# imports\nfrom instapy import InstaPy\nfrom instapy import smart_run\n\n# login credentials\ninsta_username = ''  # \u003c- enter username here\ninsta_password = ''  # \u003c- enter password here\n\n# get an InstaPy session!\n# set headless_browser=True to run InstaPy in the background\nsession = InstaPy(username=insta_username,\n                  password=insta_password,\n                  headless_browser=False)\n\nwith smart_run(session):\n    \"\"\" Activity flow \"\"\"\n    # general settings\n    session.set_relationship_bounds(enabled=True,\n                                    delimit_by_numbers=True,\n                                    max_followers=4590,\n                                    min_followers=45,\n                                    min_following=77)\n\n    session.set_dont_include([\"friend1\", \"friend2\", \"friend3\"])\n    session.set_dont_like([\"pizza\", \"#store\"])\n\n    # activity\n    session.like_by_tags([\"natgeo\"], amount=10)\n```\n\n\u003e When adding lines to the script, make sure to use a code editor which takes care of the indentation. Otherwise you will get an error upon execution.\n\n---\n\n### Already used InstaPy before `pip install instapy`?\nIf you've used InstaPy before the update to PyPi that allows installing with `pip install instapy`, you have to move your database and log files into the new workspace directory.   \n[**Check out this very short guide on what to do!**](https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy#migrating-your-data-to-the-workspace-folder)\n\n---\n\n### Encountering an issue while installing?\nIf you should encounter any problem with the installation, please use the main repository [InstaPy](https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy) to report the issue instead of this repository.\n\n\n##### Have fun \u0026 stay responsible!\n[![Run on Repl.it](https://repl.it/badge/github/InstaPy/instapy-quickstart)](https://repl.it/github/InstaPy/instapy-quickstart)\n","funding_links":[],"categories":["Python","Social Media","Programming Languages"],"sub_categories":["Images","Python"],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FInstaPy%2Finstapy-quickstart","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2FInstaPy%2Finstapy-quickstart","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FInstaPy%2Finstapy-quickstart/lists"}
