RedditArchiver-standalone

RedditArchiver-standalone is the standalone version of RedditArchiver.

"Standalone" means that you do not need a web server: the function was reduced to a simple Python script.

For more information on RedditArchiver itself, see the main repository.

Running the script

(Replace python3 by py -3 if you are on Windows)

Install dependencies:

python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Edit the file config.yml to put all the informations needed to connect (client ID, client secret and refresh token).

If you have no clue about what these options are, follow these steps:

Go here and create an app
Use the "script" type, and put http://localhost:8080 as redirect URI (the other options do not matter)
Take note of your client ID and client secret
To get your refresh token, you can use this script (you only need the "read" scope)
Edit the config file to put these three elements in it.

For information about the usage of the script, run python3 RedditArchiver -h.
