-# instaloader
-
-Simple downloader to fetch all Instagram pictures and captions from a given profile.
-
-## Usage
-
-Ensure having [Python](https://www.python.org/) (at least version 3.3) and
-[python3-requests](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests/) installed.
-
-If you intend to use this tool under Windows, it is highly recommended to first install
-[win-unicode-console](https://github.com/Drekin/win-unicode-console).
-
-After having [downloaded instaloader.py](https://github.com/Thammus/instaloader/releases), you invoke it with
-```
-./instaloader.py 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 profile, you may run
-```
-./instaloader.py --fast-update profile [profile ...]
-```
-When `--fast-update` is given, instaloder terminates when arriving at the first already-downloaded
-picture.
-
-Instaloader can also be used to **download private profiles**. To do so, invoke it with
-```
-./instaloader.py --login=your_username profile [profile ...]
-```
-When invoked like this, it also **stores the session cookies** in a file in `/tmp`, which will be
-reused later when `--login` is given. So you can download private profiles **non-interactively**
-when you already have a valid session cookies file.
-
-If you want to **download all followees of a given profile**, call
-```
-./instaloader.py --login=your_username @profile
-```
-
-The `--quiet` option makes it also **suitable as a cron job**.
-
-To get a list of other helpful flags, run `./instaloader.py --help`.
-
-## Usage as library
-
-You may also use parts of instaloader as library to do other interesting things.
-
-For example, to get a list of all followers of a profile as well as their follower count, do
-```python
-import instaloader
-
-# login
-session = instaloader.get_logged_in_session(USERNAME)
-
-# get followees
-followees = instaloader.get_followees(PROFILE, session)
-for f in followees:
-    print("%i\t%s\t%s" % (f['follower_count'], f['username'], f['full_name']))
-```
-
-Then, you may download all pictures of all followees with
-```python
-for f in followees:
-    try:
-        instaloader.download(f['username'], session)
-    except instaloader.NonfatalException:
-        pass
-```
-
-`get_followees()` also returns unique IDs for all loaded followees. These IDs stay unchanged even
-if a user changes his/her username. To get the current username of a profile, given this unique ID
-`get_username_by_id()` can be used. For example:
-```python
-instaloader.get_username_by_id(session, followees[0]['id'])
-```

+Instaloader
+===========
+
+Tool to automatically download pictures (or videos) of given profiles
+from Instagram.
+
+Installation
+------------
+
+Instaloader is written in Python, thus ensure having
+`Python <https://www.python.org/>`__ (at least version 3.5) installed.
+
+If you intend to use this tool under Windows, it is recommended
+to install
+`win-unicode-console <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/win_unicode_console>`__.
+
+If you have `pip <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip>`__ installed, you
+may install Instaloader using
+
+::
+
+    pip3 install instaloader
+
+Alternatively, to get the most current version of Instaloader from our
+`Git repository <https://github.com/Thammus/instaloader>`__:
+
+::
+
+    pip3 install git+https://github.com/Thammus/instaloader
+
+(pass ``--upgrade`` to upgrade if Instaloader is already installed)
+
+Instaloader requires
+`requests <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/requests>`__, which
+will be installed automatically, if it is not already installed.
+
+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 ...]
+
+When ``--fast-update`` is given, Instaloader stops when arriving at
+the first already-downloaded picture.
+
+Instaloader can also be used to **download private profiles**. To do so,
+invoke it with
+
+::
+
+    instaloader --login=your_username profile [profile ...]
+
+When invoked like this, it also **stores the session cookies** in a file
+in your temporary directory, which will be reused later when ``--login`` is given. So
+you can download private profiles **non-interactively** when you already
+have a valid session cookie file.
+
+You may also download
+**the most recent pictures by hashtag**:
+
+::
+
+    instaloader "#hashtag"
+
+If you want to **download all followees of a given profile**, call
+
+::
+
+    instaloader --login=your_username @profile
+
+To **download all the pictures from your feed which you have liked**, call
+
+::
+
+    instaloader --login=your_username :feed-liked
+
+or to **download all pictures from your feed**:
+
+::
+
+    instaloader --login=your_username :feed-all
+
+Advanced Options
+----------------
+
+The following flags can be given to Instaloader to specify how profiles should
+be downloaded.
+
+To get a list of all flags, their abbreviations and their descriptions, you may
+run ``instaloader --help``.
+
+What to Download
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Specify a list of profiles or #hashtags. For each of these, Instaloader
+creates a folder and downloads all posts along with the pictures's
+captions and the current **profile picture**. If an already-downloaded profile
+has been renamed, Instaloader automatically **finds it by its unique ID** and
+renames the folder likewise.
+
+--profile-pic-only         Only download profile picture.
+--skip-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.
+--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.
+
+When to Stop Downloading
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+If none of these options are given, Instaloader goes through all pictures
+matching the specified targets.
+
+--fast-update              For each target, stop when encountering the first
+                           already-downloaded picture. This flag is recommended
+                           when you use Instaloader to update your personal
+                           Instagram archive.
+--count COUNT              Do not attempt to download more than COUNT posts.
+                           Applies only to ``#hashtag``, ``:feed-all`` and ``:feed-liked``.
+
+
+Login (Download Private Profiles)
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Instaloader can **login to Instagram**. This allows downloading private
+profiles. To login, pass the ``--login`` option. Your session cookie (not your
+password!) will be saved to a local file to be reused next time you want
+Instaloader to login.
+
+--login YOUR-USERNAME      Login name (profile name) for your Instagram account.
+--sessionfile SESSIONFILE  Path for loading and storing session key file.
+                           Defaults to a path
+                           within your temporary directory, encoding your local
+                           username and your Instagram profile name.
+--password YOUR-PASSWORD   Password for your Instagram account. Without this
+                           option, you'll be prompted for your password
+                           interactively if there is not yet a valid session
+                           file.
+
+How to Download
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+--no-profile-subdir        Instead of creating a subdirectory for each profile
+                           and storing pictures there, store pictures in files
+                           named ``PROFILE__DATE_TIME.jpg``.
+--hashtag-username         Lookup username of pictures when downloading by
+                           #hashtag and encode it in the downlaoded file's path
+                           or filename (if ``--no-profile-subdir``). Without this
+                           option, the #hashtag is used instead. This requires an
+                           additional request to the Instagram server for each
+                           picture, which is why it is disabled by default.
+--user-agent USER_AGENT    User Agent to use for HTTP requests. Per default,
+                           Instaloader pretends being Chrome/51.
+--no-sleep                 Do not sleep between requests to Instagram's servers.
+                           This makes downloading faster, but may be suspicious.
+
+Miscellaneous Options
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+--shorter-output           Do not display captions while downloading.
+--quiet                    Disable user interaction, i.e. do not print messages
+                           (except errors) and fail if login credentials are
+                           needed but not given. This makes Instaloader
+                           **suitable as a cron job**.
+
+Usage as Python module
+----------------------
+
+You may also use parts of Instaloader as library to do other interesting
+things.
+
+For example, to get a list of all followees and a list of all followers of a profile, do
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    import instaloader
+
+    # Get instance
+    loader = instaloader.Instaloader()
+
+    # Login
+    loader.interactive_login(USERNAME)
+
+    # Retrieve followees
+    followees = loader.get_followees(PROFILE)
+    print(PROFILE + " follows these profiles:")
+    for f in followees:
+        print("\t%s\t%s" % (f['username'], f['full_name']))
+
+    # Retrieve followers
+    followers = loader.get_followers(PROFILE)
+    print("Followers of " + PROFILE + ":")
+    for f in followers:
+        print("\t%s\t%s" % (f['username'], f['full_name']))
+
+Then, you may download all pictures of all followees with
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    for f in followees:
+        try:
+            loader.download(f['username'])
+        except instaloader.NonfatalException:
+            pass
+
+You could also download your last 20 liked pics with
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    oader.download_feed_pics(max_count=20, fast_update=True,
+                             filter_func=lambda node:
+                                   not node["likes"]["viewer_has_liked"] if "likes" in node else not node["viewer_has_liked"])
+
+To download the last 20 pictures with hashtag #cat, do
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    loader.download_hashtag('cat', max_count=20)
+
+Each Instagram profile has its own unique ID which stays unmodified even
+if a user changes his/her username. To get said ID, given the profile's
+name, you may call
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    loader.get_id_by_username(PROFILE_NAME)
+
+``get_followees()`` also returns unique IDs for all loaded followees. To
+get the current username of a profile, given this unique ID
+``get_username_by_id()`` can be used. For example:
+
+.. code:: python
+
+    loader.get_username_by_id(followees[0]['id'])
