Instapy: Errors from GraphQL (I think)

[watty62]

When running the test script I get the following output. I raised this with Tim (who suggested that I create this issue) and he thought that this was coming from GraphGL?

Any ideas / solutions?

@watty62 I was having a similar issue with an older codebase, are you using the most up to date version?

[watty62]

Thanks @littleswany How can I tell my version? I will check. Thanks!

[littleswany]

No worries. I'm not sure that you can at the moment.

@timgrossmann İt might be a good thing to include going forward?

[watty62]

@littleswany Running pip list it says: "instapy (0.1.dev0) "

If I run

sudo pip install instapy --upgrade
will it upgrade?

Ian

[littleswany]

İt might but i don't think it will as we have not got that setup yet i don't think.

How did you install it in the first place and what platform are you on?@

[timgrossmann]

@watty62 No you have to do:

git pull

In the directory of InstaPy

[watty62]

That worked @timgrossmann (Thanks too @littleswany ).

The git pull updated the application.

The script ran.

I'd limited the number of likes to 10 to test the script.

I used:

.like_by_tags(['tv_depthoffield', 'europe_bnw'], amount=10)\
as these two tags are ones which should reflect on my own account well.

But I noticed that I got repeated messages:

--> Image not liked: Inappropriate

The summary at the conclusion was:
Liked: 1
Already Liked: 0
Inappropriate: 19
Commented: 0
Followed: 0

Session ended

* of the 19 'inappropriate' ones, 1 was my own image - which it flagged as 'username' and the other 18 were supposedly inappropriate images. Looking at them manually none were what I would call inappropriate. *

Another step forward.

Thanks

Ian

@watty62
Please post your quickstart.py setup

Inappropriate comes from the dont_likemethod 😉

[watty62]

Ah. Ok @timgrossmann

I think we should close this issue - as the original purpose is served. I will have a look at the don't_like method and make changes, and test again.

If there continues to be a problem I will raise a new issue.

Many thanks

Ian
