Introducing the official instascrape website

Check out the newly launched, official instascrape site!


Over the last few months, I've been spending a ton of time working on my open source Instagram scraping library: instascrape.

Powerful and flexible Instagram scraping library for Python, providing easy-to-use and expressive tools for accessing data programmatically

instascrape: powerful Instagram data scraping toolkit

Note: This module is no longer actively maintained.

DISCLAIMER:

Instagram has gotten increasingly strict with scraping and using this library can result in getting flagged for botting AND POSSIBLE DISABLING OF YOUR INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT. This is a research project and I am not responsible for how you use it. Independently, the library is designed to be responsible and respectful and it is up to you to decide what you do with it. I don't claim any responsibility if your Instagram account is affected by how you use this library.

What is it?

instascrape is a lightweight Python package that provides an expressive and flexible API for scraping Instagram data. It is geared towards being a high-level building block on the data scientist's toolchain and can be seamlessly integrated and extended with industry standard tools for web scraping, data science, and analysis.

Key features

Now that the lib is starting to build a bit of a cult following, I figured it would be a great time to launch an official website!

Check it out and feel free to drop some feedback, would love to see what people are interested in seeing ❤️
