Automatically Repost Content From Instagram to Twitter
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ever tried sharing an Instagram post to Twitter, only to find out that all you tweeted was a link, and not the actual photo/video?

        It could be literally anything, nobody will click it.

|.InstaTweet|_ **shares the** *actual* **content of the post. Not just a link to it.**

        It's a thicc cat, very handsome. Nobody will click the link, but they'll definitely see this bad boy.


With ``InstaTweet``, you can rest easy knowing that, although nobody will click the link,
they'll at least see what you posted.

What's InstaTweet?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

|.InstaTweet|_ is a customizable tool to automatically repost content from Instagram to Twitter.



Simply create a |.Profile|_, configure the |mandatory-settings|_, and |.add_pages|_ to repost from


.. code-block:: python

    from InstaTweet import Profile

    # Create a new (local) Profile
    >>> profile = Profile('myProfile')

    # Configure the mandatory settings (at minimum)
    >>> profile.twitter_keys = twitter_api_keys
    >>> profile.session_id = '6011991A'

    # Add at least one Instagram page (user/hashtag) to repost from
    >>> profile.add_pages(['the.dailykitten', '#thedailykitten'])

    # Save the Profile [optional]
    >>> profile.save()

    Saved Local Profile myProfile


Once configured, the |.Profile|_ can be used to initialize and |.start|_ InstaTweet:

.. code-block:: python

    from InstaTweet import InstaTweet

    # Directly initialize with a Profile object
    >>> insta_tweet = InstaTweet(profile)

    # Or load a saved Profile by name
    >>> insta_tweet = InstaTweet.load("myProfile")

    # Run InstaTweet by calling start()
    >>> insta_tweet.start()

|

As ``InstaTweet`` runs, its progress will be logged to console:

.. code-block:: python

    Starting InstaTweet for Profile: myProfile
    Checking posts from @the.dailykitten
    ...
    Checking posts from #thedailykitten
    ...
    Finished insta-tweeting for #thedailykitten
    All pages have been insta-tweeted

Okay... But Why? 😟
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


.. |why| replace:: 🐥 But Why? 🤨

+-----------------------------------------------------------------+
| |why|                                                           |
+=================================================================+
| **InstaTweet has two main use cases:**                          |
|                                                                 |
| * To automatically share your own Instagram posts to Twitter    |
| * To automatically tweet new content from other Instagram users |
|                                                                 |
| Regardless of your intention, InstaTweet will detect new posts  |
| from the users you specify, download them, and repost them to   |
| Twitter.                                                        |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------+


...


Other Use Case: The |.InstaClient|_
======================================

The package's custom |.InstaClient|_ can also be used as a standalone Instagram scraper

.. code-block:: python

   from InstaTweet import InstaClient

   >>> ig = InstaClient(session_id="kjfdn309wredsfl")

   # Scrape Instagram user or hashtag
   >>> user = ig.get_user('dailykittenig')
   >>> hashtag = ig.get_hashtag('#dailykitten')
   >>> print(user, hashtag, sep='\n')

   Instagram User: @dailykittenig
   Instagram Hashtag: #dailykitten

   # Download most recent post
   >>> post = user.posts[0]
   >>> print(post)
   >>> ig.download_post(post)
