Rust Telegram Bot for Instagram Reels

This is an example project written in Rust that demonstrates how to create a simple Telegram bot to retrieve direct reel URLs from Instagram using Selenium. Essentially, it's a Telegram bot for interacting with Instagram, with the first example focusing on obtaining direct links from video reels.

Features

  • Send a reel's URL to the Telegram bot, and it will provide the direct video URL.

Setup

Prerequisites

  • You need Docker and Docker Compose installed on your host machine.

Configuration

  1. Create a Telegram Bot:

    • Follow the instructions to create a bot using BotFather on Telegram.
    • Obtain the bot token from BotFather.

  2. Set Up Secrets.toml:

    • Create (or Update) a Secrets.toml file in the root directory of the project.

    • Add the following information to Secrets.toml:

      tg_token = "YOUR_TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN"
ig_username = "YOUR_INSTAGRAM_USERNAME"
ig_password = "YOUR_INSTAGRAM_PASSWORD"

Running the Bot

  1. Build and Launch the Bot:

    • Use Docker Compose to build and run the bot:

      docker-compose up

    This command will build the Docker image and start the Telegram bot.

Usage

  • Send a reel's URL to your Telegram bot.
  • The bot will respond with the direct video URL.

Notes

  • Ensure that your Secrets.toml file contains the correct Telegram bot token and Instagram credentials.
  • Docker Compose is required to run the bot. Make sure Docker Compose is installed on your host machine.

Example Secrets.toml

tg_token = "123456789:ABCDEF1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef"
ig_username = "your_instagram_username"
ig_password = "your_instagram_password"
