How to Automatically Download Pictures from Instagram
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To **download all pictures and videos of a profile**, as well as the
|
|
**profile picture**, do
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
instaloader profile [profile ...]
|
|
|
|
where ``profile`` is the name of a profile you want to download. Instead
|
|
of only one profile, you may also specify a list of profiles.
|
|
|
|
To later **update your local copy** of that profiles, you may run
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
instaloader --fast-update profile [profile ...]
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
Instaloader can also be used to **download private profiles**. To do so,
|
|
invoke it with
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
instaloader --login=your_username profile [profile ...]
|
|
|
|
When logging in, Instaloader **stores the session cookies** in a file in your
|
|
temporary directory, which will be reused later the next time ``--login``
|
|
is given. So you can download private profiles **non-interactively** when you
|
|
already have a valid session cookie file.
