Changelog

All notable changes to instagram-scraper. Format loosely follows Keep a Changelog; versions are shared across the monorepo packages.

0.3.0 — 2026-05-17

Added

  • CLI highlights <username> gains filter flags:
    • --album <titles> — only albums whose title contains one of these (comma-separated, case-insensitive substring match).
    • --since <date> / --until <date> — keep only items posted within the date window (a bare YYYY-MM-DD for --until covers the day).
  • A privacy-oriented pre-push git hook (.githooks/pre-push) — blocks pushes that introduce secrets or denylisted identifiers; --scan-all audits the whole tree before publishing. Denylist stays local, never committed (see .githooks/denylist.sample).

0.2.0 — 2026-05-17

Added

  • Highlights-tray discovery — scrapeHighlightsTray(http, username) lists every permanent Highlights album of a profile. The tray is not in the profile SSR; it loads via the PolarisProfileStoryHighlightsTrayContentQuery GraphQL XHR, which the scraper intercepts.
  • CLI highlights <username> — discovers and scrapes all of a profile's highlight albums in a single pass.
  • HttpClient.captureXhr accepts an optional requestPattern that matches the request body — required to disambiguate the shared /graphql/query endpoint by GraphQL friendly name.

Fixed

  • scrapeHighlightById returned nothing: Instagram renamed the album SSR field to xdt_api__v1__feed__reels_media__connection (a GraphQL connection). The stories parser now reads both the connection (edges[].node) shape and the legacy field.
  • captureXhr navigates with domcontentloaded instead of networkidle, which never settles on Instagram and caused spurious navigation timeouts.

0.1.0

Initial monorepo: Playwright auth (persistent context + cookie import), HTTP client with jitter and checkpoint detection, Apollo-cache extractor, parsers (profile / post / reel / stories / highlight / hashtag / location), media downloader with atomic writes, the instagram-scraper CLI, and the FilesystemAdapter storage tree.
