Instapy: [WIN] GUI tool for InstaPy script

[komad1na]

Hell everyone,

When I saw this script first time I liked it a lot. Real people are responding and following back not bots. So I experimented a lot with functions, i know it's simple (at least for us programmers) to use it, but what if people, who don't know how to use it, discover it and they would be probably like "what is this this ain't app.". So i thought maybe i should make some simple GUI tool for the script (windows for now).

My idea:
I am, let's say, "decent" with C# and win forms so my question is should I proceed with this and do you guys/girls have anything to add or to say, any comment or idea is appreciated. If I make it how should I share it merge it with this (since i want open source gui tool) or should i create a new repository with project only and to add only .exe in this repository ?

I will post it on this repository whole project when I finish it.

You can give it a try if you want, but my worry is that the project is still too new, LOTS of things are going to change. Also, if you only target the Win platform, less people are going to be able to contribute.

I have the same thoughts of @AlainPilon
Is TOO early to do a thing like that.

And sadly, if instagram see this, they will end with that so fast.
With an Windows GUI this would be with less time.

GUI for installation and setup: OK
GUI for use: Nah, i guess no.

I am working only with his functions and arguments I dont go into code it self.
Basically if you tick option program will write down "session.login()" or any of the functions. Who knows C# can check out on link down.

I have made first working version which needs polishing of course. You guys can download it here. File is InstaPy.exe in main folder(still don't know how to use github, i'm noob)

EDIT: You need to put .exe file in folder where are all files for InstaPy

@Nemixalone I think this is not too bad.
The problem is, like they mentioned, it'll change really fast.

I still think, this is nice to start with.
What you should definitely do, @Nemixalone , is add a Readme.md file to your project with explains what your tool is doing and provide one or two pictures of the GUI, this will maybe attract a few users.

But thanks for building something for InstaPy!

I will try to keep up, I only need how you call functions e.g.
session.set_do_follow(enabled=True, percentage=10, times=2)
Program works that way when you tick checkbox and add tags or percent and click RUN ! button it will generate whole quickstart.py file from begging till end. Then it will create a little batch file to set UTF-8 coding and call for quickstart.py, the rest is up to your script.

I have added README file. I hope you guys like the first version of program.

No problem I am glad that I am part of this project. :100:
