# Ultimate Facebook Scrapper
A bot which scrapes almost everything about a facebook user's profile including
* uploaded photos
* tagged photos
* videos
* friends list and their profile photos (including Followers, Following, Work Friends, College Friends etc)
* and all public posts/statuses available on the user's timeline.
The best thing about this scraper is that the data is scraped in an organized format so that it can be used for educational/research purpose by researchers.

## How to Run
Its written in Python 2.6 and currently supports Linux only. Moreover it uses the "hurry.filesize" module. So, install it using the following command
You will need to install latest version of [Google Chrome](https://www.google.com/chrome/). Moreover, you need to install selenium module as well using
```pip install hurry.filesize```
ll
You can use [DB Browser for SQLite](http://sqlitebrowser.org/) to view the database.
```
pip install selenium
```
Run the code using Python 3.
The tool uses latest version of [Chrome Web Driver](http://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads). I have placed the webdriver along with the code but if that version doesn't work then replace the chrome web driver with the latest one.
