Installation

npm i @brahmbeyond/instareel 

To install globally ↓

npm i -g @brahmbeyond/instareel 

Usage

→ CLI

insta get-reel <url of reel>

example :

insta get-reel https://www.instagram.com/p/C3C2RnRA2dx/

OR

reel get-reel <urls of reels seperated by spaces>

example :

reel get-reel https://www.instagram.com/p/C3C2RnRA2dx/ https://www.instagram.com/p/C2ZE9tqLTQz/

→ Code

• The agruments to the function should be array.
• The result returned is also a array.

const getInstagramReel = require('@brahmbeyond/instareel');

const instagramReelURLs = ['https://www.instagram.com/reel/CU6nIv4jRBH/','https://www.instagram.com/reel/CU6nIv4jRBH/'];

getInstagramReel(instagramReelURLs)
    .then(downloadLinks => {
        console.log('Download links:', downloadLinks);
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.error('Error:', error);
    });

Please note that the getInstagramReel function is asynchronous, so we use .then() and .catch() to handle the Promise it returns. We can also use async/await syntax for a more synchronous style of handling Promises. Here's how you can do it:

async function main() {
    const instagramReelURLs = ['https://www.instagram.com/reel/CU6nIv4jRBH/'];

    try {
     const links = await getInstagramReel(instagramReelURL);
        console.log(links);
    } catch (err) {
        console.error(err);
    }
}

main();

Helper

• If you want the JS code that can download the available array of links which you obtained from above, to your folder then you can use the code below. Remember to install AXIOS - npm i axios

const axios = require('axios');
const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

async function downloadVideo(url, index) {
    const response = await axios.get(url, { responseType: 'arraybuffer' });
    fs.writeFileSync(path.join(__dirname, `video${index}.mp4`), response.data);
}

const video = ['link','link']; // Replace with your array of Video URLs that you got from the using the npm package

video.forEach((url, index) => {
    downloadVideo(url, index);
});

OR

• you can use it in your HTML with <a> tag which on clickin will download the video -

<a href="<Link_here>">Download Video</a>
