Instapy: Firefox on Raspberry Pi3 without images

Created on 11 Feb 2018  路  3Comments  路  Source: timgrossmann/InstaPy

Expected Behavior

Running the instapy on Raspberry pi3 with geckodriver should show me images.

Current Behavior

Shows no images, only tags and text. And outlines of where the images should be.

Is there anybody who can confirm if he or she has been able to create a working and visible instapy run on the raspberry pi 3?

hi @BLCKPSTV
you're using firefox and it's image load is disabled by default.

to allow images load, find this line in instapy.py :
firefox_profile.set_preference('permissions.default.image', 2)
and simply comment it out

or replace 2 with 1 (_to allow all images load.._)

here is an ongoing conversation about disabling images, have a look
