Why am I getting an error and what's wrong? [on hold]

Question

Every time I enter the command "python3 bot.py" I get this error.

I've already tried adding to the path, but I'm 99% sure that's not to issue as I selected the add to path option whilst installing python.

Error:

The term 'python3' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a
 path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
At line:1 char:8
+ python3 <<<<  bot.py
    + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (python3:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

Or when entering "python bot.py"

 File "bot.py", line 25
    def nav_user(self.user):
                     ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I've just tried "python bot.py" and I've gotten more errors

  File "bot.py", line 35
    if __name__ == '__main__':
                             ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Heres all the code:

from selenium import webdriver
import os
import time

import configparser

class InstagramBot:

    def __init__(self, username, password):
        self.username = username
        self.password = password
        self.base_url = 'https://www.instagram.com'
        self.driver = webdriver.Chrome('./chromedriver.exe')

        self.login()


def login(self):
    self.driver.get('{}/accounts/login/'.format(self.base_url))

    self.driver.find_element_by_name('username').sendkeys(self.username)
    self.driver.find_element_by_name('password').sendkeys(self.password)
    self.driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[contains(text(), 'Log In')]")[0].click()

    def nav_user(self,user):
        self.driver.get('{}/{}/'.format(self.base_url, user))

    def follow_user(self, user):
        self.nav_user(user

        if __name__ == '__main__':

            config = './config.ipni'
            cparser = configparser.ConfigParser()
            cparser.read(config_path)
            username = cparser['AUTH']['USERNAM'E]
            password = cparser['AUTH']['PASSWORD']

            ig_bot = InstagramBot(username, password)
            ig_bot.nav_user('test')
            ig_bot.follow_user('test')

Answer 1

The first error is because python3 is either not installed or its folder hasn't been added to your Path environment variable. Use python instead.

---

The second is a syntax error, looks like it should be:

def nav_user(self,user):

note the comma ,

Regarding the other code snippet, there are multiple syntax errors. Consider using flake8 or pylint to check your code before running it. It will save you time. Stackoverflow is not a syntax checking service.
