instagram-scraper is a command-line application written in Python that scrapes and downloads an instagram user's photos and videos. Use responsibly. To scrape a private user's media you must be an approved follower. Providing username and password is optional, if not supplied the scraper runs as a guest. In this case all private user's media will be unavailable. All user's stories and high-resolution profile pictures will also be unavailable. By default, downloaded media will be placed in <current working directory>/<username>. It may be useful to specify the --maximum <#> argument to limit the total number of items to scrape when scraping by hashtag. The locations can only be separated by newlines and spaces.
