If ``--fast-update`` is given, Instaloader stops when arriving at the
first already-downloaded picture. When updating profiles, Instaloader
automatically **detects profile name changes** and renames the target
directory accordingly.

you can download private profiles **non-interactively** when you already

When logging in, Instaloader **stores the session cookies** in a file in

Besides downloading private profiles, being logged in allows to

What to Download
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
::
Instaloader does not only download media by-profile. More generally, you
may specify the following targets:
instaloader --login=your_username --stories profile [profile ...]
- ``profile``: Public profile, or private profile with ``--login``,
You may also download
**the most recent pictures by hashtag**:
- ``"#hashtag"``: Posts with a certain **hashtag** (the quotes are
usually neccessary),
::
- ``:stories``: The currently-visible **stories** of your followees
(requires ``--login``),
instaloader "#hashtag"
- ``:feed``: Your **feed** (requires ``--login``),
This downloads the requested posts into a directory named according to the specified
hashtag and the filenames correspond to the timestamp of the posts.
As with all download tasks, this behavior can easily be customized, for example
encode the poster's profile name in the filenames:
- ``@profile``: All profiles which are followed by ``profile``, i.e. the
*followees* of ``profile`` (requires ``--login``).
Instaloader goes through all media matching the specified targets and
downloads the pictures and videos and their captions. You can specify
``--comments`` to also **download comments** of each post and
``--geotags`` to **download geotags** of each post and save them as
Google Maps link. For each profile you download, ``--stories``
instructs Instaloader to **download the user's stories**.
Filename Specification
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For each target, Instaloader creates a directory named after the target,
i.e. ``profile``, ``#hashtag``, ``:feed``, etc. and therein saves the
posts in files named after the post's timestamp.
``--dirname-pattern`` allows to configure the directory name of each
target. The default is ``--dirname-pattern={target}``. In the dirname
pattern, the token ``{target}`` is replaced by the target name, and
``{profile}`` is replaced by the owner of the post which is downloaded.
``--filename-pattern`` configures the path of the post's files relative
to the target directory. The default is ``--filename-pattern={date}``.
The tokens ``{target}`` and ``{profile}`` are replaced like in the
dirname pattern. Further, the tokens ``{date}`` and ``{shortcode}`` are
defined.
For example, encode the poster's profile name in the filenames with:
::
instaloader --filename-pattern={date}_{profile} "#hashtag"
If you want to **download all followees of a given profile**, call
The pattern string is formatted with Python's string formatter. This
gives additional flexibilty for pattern specification. For example,
strptime-style formatting options are supported for the post's
timestamp. The default for ``{date}`` is ``{date:%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S}``.
Filter Posts
^^^^^^^^^^^^
The ``--only-if`` option allows to specify criterias that posts have to
meet to be downloaded. If not given, all posts are downloaded. It must
be a boolean Python expression where the variables ``likes``,
``comments``, ``viewer_has_liked``, ``is_video``, ``date``, and some
more (see class ``instaloader.Post`` for a full list) are defined.
A few examples:
To **download the pictures from your feed that you have liked**:
::
instaloader --login=your_username @profile
instaloader --login=your_username --only-if=viewer_has_liked :feed
To **download all the pictures from your feed which you have liked**, call
Or you might only want to download **posts that either you liked or were
liked by many others**:
::
instaloader --login=your_username :feed-liked
instaloader --login=your_username --only-if="likes>100 or viewer_has_liked" profile
or to **download all pictures from your feed**:
Or you may **skip videos**:
::
instaloader --login=your_username :feed-all
instaloader --only-if="not is_video" target
**Download all stories** from the profiles you follow:
::
instaloader --login=your_username --filename-pattern={date}_{profile} :stories

--profile-pic-only Only download profile picture.
--skip-videos Do not download videos.
--no-videos Do not download videos.
--geotags **Download geotags** when available. Geotags are stored as
a text file with the location's name and a Google Maps
link. This requires an additional request to the
Instagram server for each picture, which is why it is
disabled by default.
--no-geotags Do not store geotags, even if they can be obtained
without any additional request.
--comments Download and update comments for each post. This
requires an additional request to the Instagram server
for each post, which is why it is disabled by default.
--no-captions Do not store media captions, although no additional
request is needed to obtain them.

downloaded. Requires ``--login``.

specified profile, only download stories.
