Reddit sample
Using the Reddit sample bundle
The reddit-message-read example bundle in samples/reddit-msg-read
demonstrates
the ability to read recent posts from a subreddit (in this case r/skate702
)
Prerequisites
You will need a working nodecg-io
installation. If you have non yet take a
look at installation guide. You may need to
install this bundle, so take a look at the
“Try an included sample”-Guide. It
will also tell you how to log in and how to use the GUI.
You also need:
- A Reddit Application (Should be of type script for own purpose)
Note
If you don't have such an application yet, you can get one here.
Configure the Reddit sample bundle
-
In NodeCG, create a new Reddit service instance.
-
Enter your applications ID and secret and your own username and password. The entered username and password must be for the user who registered the application:
{ "clientId": "Your client Id (This is displayed right below the application name)", "clientSecret": "Your client secret", "username": "Your username", "password": "Your password" }
After entering it, click save.
-
Set the sample's (
reddit-msg-read
) dependency to be the newly created service instance (of typereddit
). -
Check the NodeCG logs:
You should see the recent posts in
r/skate702
