Instapy: optimizing code/bug for .interact_user_followers

Created on 24 Aug 2017 · 4Comments · Source: timgrossmann/InstaPy

Hi,
is it possible to optimize code for
.interact_user_followers

I'm running following script:

from instapy import InstaPy

insta_username = 'XXXXX'
insta_password = 'XXXXXX'

InstaPy(username=insta_username, password=insta_password, nogui=True)\
  .login()\
  .set_upper_follower_count(limit=500)\
  .set_lower_follower_count(limit=100)\
  .set_user_interact(amount=2, random=True, percentage=95, media='Photo')\
  .set_do_follow(enabled=True, percentage=70)\
  .set_do_like(enabled=True, percentage=70)\
  .set_comments([u':thumbsup:'])\
  .set_do_comment(enabled=True, percentage=80)\
  .interact_user_followers(['rav_shana'], amount=100, random=True)\
  .unfollow_users(amount=500, onlyInstapyFollowed = True)\
  .end()

If script encounter user that is bellow or above follower count, I'm getting following:

Username [77/257]
--> b'quite_a_beauty_'
Getting  quite_a_beauty_ image list...
Interaction begin...

--> Not following

-------------
--> Given amount not fullfilled, image pool reached its end

I assume that it should be no interaction with a user once he is out of the limits

enhancement help wanted

I also noticed, that in between users that _are_ within the min/max follower criteria, the script still navigates back to their profile between every photo like.

@BernardoGO ?

I can fix this with one line of code to skip a user as soon as any of their photos are deemed "inappropriate"
