Download any picture or video associated from an Instagram profile
historique
InstaLooter is a Python command-line downloader for Instagram pictures and videos from profiles, hashtags, posts, and batch files. Its own GitHub metadata describes it as API-less and defunct, which makes it a useful historical companion to better-maintained Instagram archiving tools.
The GitHub repository and PyPI package appeared in 2016. The README says InstaLooter can download pictures or videos associated with an Instagram profile without API access and describes it as a reimplementation of the deprecated InstaRaider project.
The 1.0.0 line was rewritten from scratch and intentionally risked breaking script compatibility while trying to keep the CLI familiar. The changelog records a semantic-versioned release stream through the 2.x series, including fixes for Instagram-side API and login changes.
InstaLooter was distributed through PyPI and packaged by Homebrew. The official Read the Docs build, README badges, and PyPI metadata show a conventional Python CLI distribution path with documentation, changelog, source repository, and package releases.
The Homebrew formula packages the PyPI source archive for version 2.4.4, while PyPI records dozens of releases beginning in 2016. That adoption is modest but real for a single-purpose scraper.
The documented command-line interface includes user, hashtag, post, and batch subcommands. Options cover credentials, output directories, number of files, parallel jobs, filename templates, videos, metadata dumps, time limits, and authenticated downloads.
The docs describe logging in with username/password or a login subcommand, then storing a session cookie in a cache-specific folder. That credential behavior is central to how such tools handled private profiles and authenticated media access.
InstaLooter is historically interesting because it shows the fragile lifecycle of API-less social-media downloaders: quick adoption, many small fixes, rewrites after web changes, and eventual defunct status as upstream platform behavior moves.
For package maintainers, it is a cautionary package: the source archive, docs, and formula remain useful records, but the project's own description warns that its web-scraping assumptions aged out.
