Video creation will be handled by the videogen.py script. This script, however, is a sample script that is used as a demo but it still works. You can modify the subreddit that it pulls data from, the way the data is sorted, and how many posts are put into the video.

You can modify the sub variable to change the subreddit listing / sorting. You can do this by changing the first few lines of the code.

# videogen.py
sub = reddit.Subreddit('<subreddit'>, reddit.Listing.<Listing>) # See below for reddit.Listing properties

Now that you have modified the video creator file, you can run the script with...

python3 videogen.py

Windows:

py videogen.py

The reddit.Listing class is where the enum values for different sorting functions.

• HOT
• NEW
• Top
  • PAST_YEAR
  • PAST_24
  • PAST_WEEK
  • ALL_TIME
