bottr

Bottr makes writing bots for reddit easy. It currently provides two predefined bots:

CommentBot:: Listens to new comments in a list of subreddits
SubmissionBot:: Listens to new submission in a list of subreddits

Bottr makes use of the Python Reddit API Wrapper PRAW.

Installation

Bottr is available on PyPi and can be installed via

$ pip install bottr

Quick Start

The following is a quick example on how to monitor r/AskReddit for new comments. If a comment contains the string 'banana', the bot replies 'This comment is bananas.'

import praw
import time

from bottr.bot import CommentBot

def parse_comment(comment):
    """Define what to do with a comment"""
    if 'banana' in comment.body:
        comment.reply('This comment is bananas.')

if __name__ == '__main__':

    # Get reddit instance with login details
    reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id='id',
                         client_secret='secret',
                         password='botpassword',
                         user_agent='Script by /u/...',
                         username='botname')

    # Create Bot with methods to parse comments
    bot = CommentBot(reddit=reddit,
                    func_comment=parse_comment,
                    subreddits=['AskReddit'])

    # Start Bot
    bot.start()

    # Run bot for 10 minutes
    time.sleep(10*60)

    # Stop Bot
    bot.stop()
