New Guy with Python Error

[AVwebcss]

Please first of all apologise if I'm posting in a wrong place.

I don't understand how this website works.

I'm no coder, this is my first attempt coding something.

I followed some instruction on YouTube to create an automation using Python and InstaPy.

The code of the .py file is the following

from instapy import InstaPy

from instapy import smart_run

my_username = 'myuser'

my_password = 'mypassword'

session = InstaPy(username=my_username,

password=my_password,

headless_browser=True)

with smart_run(session):

`session.set_relationship_bounds(enable=True,`

delimit_by_numbers=True,

max_followers=600,

min_followers=30,

max_following=600)

`session.like_by_tags(['tag1', 'tag2', 'tag3', 'tag4'], amount=300)`

The headless_browser=True because I want to run multiple automatons for different accounts that I have.

At least, based on the tutorials, that's what I think is the correct way.

Using the Terminal, accessing the folder on the desktop where the file is located I run the command python3 test.py

I'm getting a huge error.

I already looked at some post on GtHub that refer to errors on mac and I've already followed the instruction there but I still get this error:

Hello,

thank you for your reply!

the post that I followed to solve the issue was this one

https://github.com/timgrossmann/InstaPy/issues/5672

But as you can see in my post I still got the same error.

Thank you so much for you time.

I recently used Instapy in my macbook M1, this issue could arrive if you do not have firefox installed in your computer. You can do one thing, simply clone instapy from Github and install firefox in your mac, then just modify quickstart.py file to automate your insta, it will work like charm.
