Reddit Integration

Proof of Concept

import praw


reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id='7IOmu3D4e37xg',
                     client_secret='CpoELMSztuxaoibq-Y1stThofCg',
                     password='Iwilltellyou',
                     user_agent='BloclyBot ',
                     username='blocklybot')

subreddit = reddit.subreddit('blockly or any subreddit')

  2. After creating an account, go to the preference or go to this URL https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps (NB: you need to login here) click the preference on the top right corner then click create a new app left bottom client_id

  3. After creating App please fill app name, type of the application, name and description Then click the create app button

  4. Now we can get our reddit API client key, client Secret client_id

Using the Python Reddit API Wrapper (praw), we can communicate with reddit.
