Alert when post with hashtag is posted

[quintendewilde]

Is it possible to create an alert of a message every time a hashtag is used in a post?

[linkfy]

Post published by your account or external account? Or by any post around all instagram?

[quintendewilde]

The latter or at least a substantial group?

Possible?

There is a limit of requests per minute in instagram, that's why it is difficult to analyze all hashtags, you need to set a new time interval and get the recent activity every X minutes.

let posts = await recentHashtagList(ig, hashtag);

Cool, I got your tool to work. Very nice!

where exactly should I put that?

If this would work every ten minutes that would be awesome!!

Put the whole process in a function, and Use Cron or a scheduler to automate the process

Which process or do you mean a certain bot in the bots folder. Cron job I can do easily. But the code is a bit harder for me to comprehend.

Post the code here

Yeah I noticed that my es6 is even worse then my basic js knowledge.

For the moment I just cleaned an existing code to the bare minimum of fetching the count of the hashtags.

I will need to figure out how to send that number via osc. Thats another question for another place probably.

But what I can't figure out is that I can't seem to end the code and get back to the cli. Because that would be easier to create my cron job eventually?

Thanks again!

require('../src/tools-for-instagram.js');

    let hashtag = "cat";
    console.log("\n -- Hashtag counter --\n".bold.underline);
    let ig = await login();

    let posts = await recentHashtagList(ig, hashtag);
    console.log("Posts received with hashtag: ".cyan + posts.length);
    let promises = [];
    for (let i = 0; i < posts.length; i++) {

Looks like you just posted half part of your script 😏....

require('../src/tools-for-instagram.js');
var schedule = require('node-schedule');

//install node-schedule with
//npm i node-schedule

(async() => {
  Console.log("Hashtag Script")

  async function hashtag(ig) {
    let hashtag = "cat";
    console.log("\n -- Hashtag counter --\n".bold.underline);
    let ig = await login();

    let posts = await recentHashtagList(ig, hashtag);
    console.log("Posts received with hashtag: ".cyan + posts.length);
    let promises = [];
    for (let i = 0; i < posts.length; i++) {
        let post = posts[i];

    }
    Promise.all(promises).then(function() {
        console.log("end");
    });
  }
// every 10 minutes do hashtag job
     schedule.scheduleJob('*/10 * * * *', async function () { await hashtag(ig)});

})();

If it worked close the issue

[quintendewilde]

Hi,

I would have run the corn job as a terminal python script. But this node-schedule is better. Only thing is npm i node-schedule or others wont install or appear in my node_modules. And I tried the link for linux (working on mac) for errors with npm. But the link is not working.

let ig = await login();

seems to be a duplicate declaration, no? I'm still struggling with the promise aspect of js. So my apologies if I'm wrong.

Otherwise, you pretty much solved the whole thing for me so thanks ahead for that alone!

[Oyetomi]

Yes sorry, I've edited the script , Make sure you're using the latest node version, all installation should be ran at the root of the directory. You're welcome.

I have to reopen this because I can't find the solution somewhere else.

I get this error

OK sir, no worries.

[quintendewilde]

@virginsince1997 I'm sorry I have to bother you with this somewhat non related question. But as I'm stuck with this last piece of my project I'm in despair to find solutions for it. And again it's the part I know least of, the javascript.

I got the example (perfectly working code! :)) you gave me. I want the value or number of the hashtag to be used in another function. This function is a small osc nodejs based code that sends a value to my main project. And I want the number of hashtags to be the value that's send to my other software (sonicpi). But for some reason the basic javascript I know is not working (real basic I mean ofcourse)

I figured out that this works asynchronous. But I have no clue how to get this working and I'm running out of time for the project :/

If you find the time to spare to just take a look at this? I'd would be very greatly appreciated!

    // For most Ports, send() should only be called after the "ready" event fires.
        oscPort.on("ready", function() {
            oscPort.send({

Hey, I've been using this script for a while now. I thought this worked but I see that whatever keyword I give or how many times I run it. The result is always either 84,85,86 is this coincidence or is the script not working?

Any help is kindly appriciated!

recent hashtag list are the last posted ones on that hashtag, right now there ate 2 options: -scans the same hashtag every x minutes and make a database, -use the web api and get older hashtags by using the "next cursor" -modify the current library to accept a new parameter to scan older recent hashtags recentHashtagList(ig, hashtag) to something like recentHashtagList(ig, hashtag, defaultIterations = 1)
