The provided code is using the instaloader library in Python to fetch and display information about an Instagram profile. Here's a brief description of what the code does
The code begins by importing the instaloader
module,which provides functionality for interacting with Instagram profiles. It creates an instance of Instaloader
by calling instaloader.Instaloader()
. This instance will be used to interact with the Instagram API. The user is prompted to enter a username using the input()
function. The entered username is stored in the usrname
variable. The code retrieves the profile information of the entered username by calling Profile.from_username(ig.context, usrname)
. It uses the previously created Instaloader
instance (ig
) and the entered username (usrname
) to fetch the profile data. The returned Profile
object is stored in the profile
variable.The code then proceeds to print various information about the Instagram profile:profile.username
retrieves and prints the username of the profile.profile.mediacount
retrieves and prints the number of posts uploaded by the profile. Profile.followers
retrieves and prints the number of followers of the profile. Profile.followees
retrieves and prints the number of people the profile is following. Profile.biography
