These options instruct instaloader to not save captions or geotags
respectively, even if the regarding information can be obtained without
any additional queries to Instagram.
This feature was proposed in #25, and thus this commit should close#25.
Get rid of NonfatalException (an exception is nonfatal iff it is
catched somewhere)
Foreport fixes for #26 and #30.
The current __sersion__ string is now kept in instaloader.py rather than
setup.py. This lets instaloader.__version__ always deliver the version
of the actually-loaded Instaloader module.
Minor changes to README.rst, error handling and which class methods are
public.
With these and the changes of the previous commit, we saved 31 lines of
code, indicating that it might be easier to understand and to maintain.
Remove many code duplications, merely by using more pythonic idioms.
Use GraphQL more often.
Better cope with errors: All requests can be retried; failed requests do
not cause program termination; all error strings are repeated to the
user at the end of execution.
download_post() (formerly download_node()) does not repeat node metadata
request (before this commit, this request was executed up to three
times).
Instaloader downloads all posts in
<DIRNAME>/<FILENAME>+(suffix and extension)
which are now generated by the templates given with --dirname-pattern
and --filename-pattern. These templates may contain specifiers such as
'{target}', '{profile}', '{date}' and '{shortcode}'.
Default for --dirname-pattern is '{target}', default for
--filename-pattern is '{date:%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S}'
The former options --no-profile-subdir and --hashtag-username were
removed, because their behavior can now be achieved like this:
--no-profile-subdir and --hashtag-username:
--dirname-pattern='.' --filename-pattern='{profile}__{date:%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S}'
--no-profile-subdir, but not --hashtag-username:
--dirname-pattern='.' --filename-pattern='{target}__{date:%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S}'
--hashtag-username but not --no-profile-subdir:
--dirname-pattern='{profile}'
This adds the option proposed in #23, to encode both the hashtag and the
profile name in the file's path when downloading by hashtag, e.g.:
--dirname-pattern='{target}' --filename-pattern='{profile}_{date:%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S}'
(Closes#23)
With --hashtag-username given, if downloading per #hashtag, instead of
per username, for each picture an additional request to the Instagram
server is issued to lookup the picture's username. Instead of storing
files in #hashtag/timestamp.jpg, files are stored in
username/timestamp.jpg as it is the default when not downloading per
hashtag.
This closes#22.
Instaloader is now capable of downloading all pictures associated with
one #hashtag with:
instaloader #hashtag
This implements the feature requested with #18.
- State in README.rst and setup.py metainfo that we require Python>=3.5
- Let Travis-CI test against newer versions of Python
- Let instaloader --help show where to report issues
