Nunca quisieron obtener informacion de un perfil de instagram de una manera facil y sencilla? Bueno...

En una de esas navegaciones nocturnas de poco dormir, me encontre con esta solucion, que por lo que pude ver esta poco difundida.

https://www.instagram.com/{public_profile_name}/?__a=1

Resulta, que agregando el query ?__a=! al final de la direccion al perfil, podemos acceder a un JSON con toda la informacion publica del perfil.

por ejemplo:

https://www.instagram.com/refactordevs/?__a=1

nos devuelve el siguiente JSON:

Alt Text

Como pueden ver el JSON es muy y tenemos toda la informacion de la cuenta, inclusive, con unas pocas lineas de codigo, (en este caso en javascript), podemos obtener el feed:

async function getInstagramPictures (profileName) { const baseUrl = "https://www.instagram.com"; const profileUrl = `${baseUrl}/${profileName}`; const jsonDataUrl = `${profileUrl}/?__a=1`; const response = await fetch(jsonDataUrl); const jsonData = await response.json(); const pictures = jsonData.graphql.user.edge_owner_to_timeline_media.edges; if (response.ok) { return pictures; } else { throw new Error(pictures); }
}
getInstagramPictures("refactordevs") .then(pictures => console.log("Pictures:", pictures)) .catch(error => console.error("Error:", error));

Al realizar un bucle,se puede mostrar cada imagen o su miniatura.

Tambien podriamos traer las imagenes de perfil, o cualquier tipo de informacion.

solo basta con cambiar la siguiente linea:

const pictures = jsonData.graphql.user.edge_owner_to_timeline_media.edges;

Saludos! y espero que les sea util!

🚀⚙️ JavaScript Visualized: the JavaScript Engine

As JavaScript devs, we usually don't have to deal with compilers ourselves. However, it's definitely good to know the basics of the JavaScript engine and see how it handles our human-friendly JS code, and turns it into something machines understand! 🥳

Happy coding!
