Tutorial

First of all, if you want to use asktagram, you need to get some infos manually (at this moment):

1. Login to instagram web
2. Open devtools
3. Enable log requests (network tab)
4. Follow someone
5. In network tab, open 'follow/' request log
6. Get what you need in 'Request Headers' section

Save x-csrftoken and sessionid (note that sessionid is inside a parameter string, so copy the code after = until ;).

7. Create a .env file with

username=keviiindesousa
csrftoken=XXX
sessionid=XXX

Usage

Import asktagram

const asktagram = require('@kevindesousa/asktagram');

Instance a new user (for csrftoken and sessionid see Tutorial section)

Note: user must be the logged one (the one who you got csrftoken and sessionid). If you logout, your csrftoken and sessionid will be removed from instagram auth.

const user = new asktagram();

user.getUserInfo('keviiindesousa').then((response) => console.log(response), (err) => console.log(err));
