# InstaPost

Short Python script to post pictures automatically on Instagram.

The main code is based on Tim Grossmanns automated Instagram Tool https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy.

# Installation on Rasbian Desktop

A desktop environment is required for this script. I wasn't able to get it working in the background. :D

```

git clone "https://github.com/riconem/InstaPost.git"

cd InstaPost

chmod +x install.sh

./install.sh

```

# Setup your posts

Add your files you want to upload in ```files/queue```.

Edit login and hashtag in ```quickpost.py ``` or ```post24.py```.

```

hashtags = "#hashtag1, #hashtag2, #hashtag3"

name = 'name'

pwd = 'password'

```

## Execute

If you want to execute via ssh, export your Display variable

```

export DISPLAY="0.0"

python quickpost.py

```

## Execute by crontab weekly

```

crontab -e

```

Add your cronjob. This example will execute the script every Tuesday on 4 PM. 

```
