Functions

func GetUserNameFromText

func GetUserNameFromText(text, username string) string

GetUserNameFromText extracts Instagram user name from "text" (usually the biography of a social media account) using regular expressions. Because of too many edge cases, this function does not guarantee the accuracy of the extracted user names. The "username" argument is returned if Instagram is mentioned but no user name is found. Empty string is returned if no user name is found.

Types

type Client

type Client struct {
	SessionId string
}

func NewClient

func NewClient(sessionId string) *Client

Create new client with session id.

func (Client) GetUser

func (client Client) GetUser(username string) (*User, error)

GetUser wraps GetUserWithContext using context.Background.

func (Client) GetUserWithContext

func (client Client) GetUserWithContext(ctx context.Context, username string) (*User, error)

GetUserWithContext returns user info or error.
