influinsta

A tool that automates your way to becoming an Instagram influencer

What it does

It automates certain actions on Instagram. An action could be anything tedious like following a large number of people, commenting on random posts for a given hashtag, repost images/videos etc. These actions are being done manually by people (which have proven to increase their follower count). But these tasks are tedious and should not be done by human beings. So, this tool helps automate those actions and save a lot of time while making it more efficient.

How to use

• Build the binary from source

    $ go get -d
    $ go build -o influinsta

    {
        "creds": {
            "username": "username",
            "password": "password"
        },
        "hashtags": ["hashtags", "you", "want", "to", "follow"],
        "likeThreshold": 300,
        "followThreshold": 300,
        "actions": [
            {
                "name": "action-name",
                "args": ["arg1", "arg2"]
            }
        ]
