Download

Stable

See releases to download the latest stable version. On linux, you may need to install these dependencies.

Development

WARNING! the development version may be unstable.

You can download the whole ingress-ice using the button on the top or clone this repo via git from the link on top. You will need to manually download PhantomJS binary for your platform and put it into phantomjs.exe at the root of repo if you are using windows or phantomjs otherwise.

PhantomJS binaries' downloads are located here.

To build archives for every operating system, launch ./build.sh. It will automatically download PhantomJS executables and pack them with Ingress ICE.

Usage

WARNING! ingress-ice may be considered against Ingress ToS (although it hasn't happened before). Use it at your own risk!

Windows

1. Unpack the archieve wherever you want
2. Double-Click ingress-ice.cmd and follow the instructions
3. It will save captured screenshots with into ice-2014-07-13--09-13-37.png, ice-2014-07-13--09-14-07.png...
4. You can copy ice/ingress-ice.conf.sample to ingress-ice.conf in the ice root and enter your settings there, so you can have different configurations for every ingress-ice

If you want to reconfigure the script, just double click reconfigure.cmd. If you want to use cookies instead of login and password, see cookies authentication.

Linux/Mac OS X

1. Unpack the archieve wherever you want
2. Run chmod +x ingress-ice.sh&&./ingress-ice.sh in console and follow the instructions
3. It will save captured screenshots with into ice-2014-07-13--09-13-37.png, ice-2014-07-13--09-14-07.png...
4. You can run it from any folder where you want to save screenshots.

If you want to reconfigure the script, run ./ingress-ice.sh -r. If you want to use cookies instead of login and password, see cookies authentication. In case Ingress ICE crashes sometimes, run it with option -s: it will run ICE in an endless loop.

Creating videos

To create a video from your screenshots, you can use MPlayer (Windows download) (install from your repo if on linux). It includes a mencoder command. The following will produce an .avi video: (Detailed instruction for windows here)

mencoder mf://*.png -mf w=1366:h=768:fps=4:type=png -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:mbd=2:trell -oac copy -o ingress-ice.avi

Change 1366 and 768 to your width and height, fps=4 to your FPS (more FPS - faster video, but shorter)
