Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

INSTAGRAM PRIVATE NODE.JS API

Installation

You can install this by using npm:

npm install instagram-private-api-proxy

What is this?

This is a wrapper around instagram-private-api it is an express APP which is mirroring private API of instagram so it is easy for example to like photos or gain session or whatever.

How to use this?

Bundled proxy server (for example if you want to use this as server for client).

var server = require('instagram-private-api').server;

server.run({
    port: 8080,
    socketPort: 8888,
    host: "0.0.0.0",
    databaseDir: './databases', 
    cookiesDir: './cookies',
    // to use proxy with proxy heh :P. Useful for debugging
    // proxy: 'http://127.0.0.1:8888',
	// U can bind many interfaces in order to rotate ip addresses assigned to
	// your machine. It will rotate address immediately on spam exception
	// throwed by instagram-private-api
    // interfaces: '10.0.0.2, 10.0.0.3', 
    // for testing purposes you can supress log
    // suppressLog: true
})

This will run server and socket server on address 0.0.0.0:8080 so you can access and do the same what you can do with instagram PRIVATE API.

GET /v1
-> {node: true, sessions: <Number>}

POST /v1/sessions
With application/json
Data {"username": "someone", password: "somepassword"}
-> {user: {...}, key: "some-key-in-md5-format"}

GET /v1/accounts/self?key=some-key-in-md5-format
-> {username: "..." ...}

Proxy Client API

For server to server communication, you can use proxy-client in order to do exactly what instagram-private-api does.

Proxy Client API -> Instagram Proxy Server (mentioned above) -> instagram-private-api

Usage is very similar to instagram-private-api;

var Proxy = require('instagram-private-api').ProxyClient.V1;
var server = new Proxy.Server('host', 'port', 'socket port');
var session = new Proxy.Session(server)
session.create('some instagram username', 'somepass')
	.then(function(session) {
		// Session now we can use proxy-client-apis
		return Proxy.Account.self(session);
	})
	.then(function(account) {
		console.log(account.params) 
		// -> {username: "..." ...}
	})

Thanks for any support! Pull requests are of course welcome!
