Just a random idea I had when studying for exams
uses bsoup and requests to get post description from instagram.
requires you to download data from instagram and copy /saved to script directory
- run jsonParsing.py after copying /saved to script directory.
- run scraper.py to scrape description from instagram post descriptions.
- run hashtagger.py to extract hashtags from post descriptions.
- run counter.py to get key-value pairs of hashtag-count
- (optional) run plotting.py look at it.
that's all its doing, just plotting points, I've no idea what do with it open a issue if you have some ideas
I have no idea, I now have a bunch of text files with hashtags from the post description and their counts
Might actually use the data sometime in the future.
None pending for now. Already been testing for 2 days
- json
- beautiful soup
- requests
- re (regex)
- os
- time
- matplotlib
Most of the code is self-explanatory. but I've left comments here and there just cause.
This was meant to be a personal project.
