Welcome folks today in this post we will be building a instagram user details app using instagram api inside tkinter gui app in python.

Get Started

In order to get started you need to install python inside your system.

After installing python you need to install tkinter module using pip like below.

pip install tkinter

And now we need to make a app.py file and copy paste the following code

app.py

from tkinter import *
import tkinter as tk
import requests

root = tk.Tk()
root.title("Instagram User Details")
root.geometry('400x300')



def search():
        u_name = user.get()
        url = f"https://www.instagram.com/{u_name}/?__a=1"
        
        data = requests.get(url).json()
        print(data)



        def pic():
                import webbrowser
                d = data['graphql']['user']['profile_pic_url']
                webbrowser.open(d)


        if details.get(1.0,END) != "":
                details.delete(1.0,END)
                details.insert(1.0,f"\t username : {data['graphql']['user']['username']} \n     followers : {data['graphql']['user']['edge_followed_by']['count']}      following : {data['graphql']['user']['edge_follow']['count']} \n   full name : {data['graphql']['user']['full_name']} \n Total post : {data['graphql']['user']['edge_owner_to_timeline_media']['count']}  category : {data['graphql']['user']['category_enum']} \nbio-link:{data['graphql']['user']['external_url']}private account:{data['graphql']['user']['is_private']} || verified account:{data['graphql']['user']['is_verified']}  bussiness account:{data['graphql']['user']['is_business_account']}  \n \n   see profile picture" )



                Button(innerframe1,text="click to see",relief=RAISED,borderwidth=2,font=('verdana',8,'bold'),bg='#248aa2',fg="white",command=pic).place(x=180,y=145)



        


        
        





frame = Frame(root,width=400,height=300,relief=RIDGE,borderwidth=5,bg='#248aa2')
frame.place(x=0,y=0)

innerframe = LabelFrame(frame,width=380,height=50,relief=RIDGE,borderwidth=3,bg='#248aa2',highlightbackground="white", highlightcolor="white", highlightthickness=2)
innerframe.place(x=5,y=5)


user = Entry(frame,width=30,relief=RIDGE,borderwidth=3)
user.place(x=70,y=15)

search = Button(frame,text="Search",relief=RAISED,borderwidth=2,font=('verdana',8,'bold'),bg='#248aa2',fg="white",command=search)
search.place(x=270,y=15)


innerframe = LabelFrame(frame,width=380,height=240,relief=RIDGE,borderwidth=3,bg='#248aa2',highlightbackground="white", highlightcolor="white", highlightthickness=2)
innerframe.place(x=5,y=45)


innerframe1 = LabelFrame(innerframe,text="Users Details",width=370,height=230,highlightbackground="white", highlightcolor="white", highlightthickness=5,font=('verdana',10,'bold'))
innerframe1.place(x=0,y=0)


details = Text(innerframe1,height=12,width=47,relief=RIDGE,borderwidth=5,highlightbackground="white", highlightcolor="white",font=('courier',9,''))
details.place(x=5,y=5)

root.mainloop()

Here if you run this python script by executing the below command

python app.py

And now you can see that we have a input field where you will write the person instagram username and then click the search button to get the details inside the textarea.

And now to see the profile picture of the user just click the button click to see and then it will open the browser and you will see the person picture
