Reddit Patch Notes Bot
In order to run this code you will need to install the following libraries until I setup a setup.py:
- PRAW (pip3 install praw --user)
- BeautifulSoup4 (pip3 install beautifulsoup4 --user)
- Pyrebase (pip3 install pyrebase --user)
You will also need to create file called praw.ini with this content:
[bot1]
client_id=
client_secret=
password=
username=
user_agent=
The client_id and client_secret are given to you when you create an app on your reddit.com profile. The username and password are your reddit credentials The user_agent is free text to describe your bot/script
All previously submitted posts are now saved to firebase so that we are not posting duplicate patch notes.
If you would like to add more games to Patches_Bot, or contribute in any other way, please contact me and we can move forward with that process.
If you would like to contribute there is a config file that I will need to distribute on a case by case basis, if you are interested in working on the bot.
Thanks for taking a look!
