Reddit Scout

A small engine to look for regular expressions in subreddits, enjoy!
This was developped as a personal script to be the first to get codes released in certain subreddits (It's always a bummer when you check for codes and they've already been used)
It may have way more usages, such as finding passwords, links to stuff... Be imaginative!

Installation and execution

  1. Clone the repository
  2. Create an app in Reddit (you can call it whatever)
  3. Fill in the config_example.py file with your credentials and rename it to config.py
  4. Add the regular expressions you want to look for as strings in the PATTERNS field
  5. Run main.py and enjoy!

Future plans

Adding proper alerting

  • Telegram
  • Slack

Using it as the entry point of a pipeline

  • Redeeming the code automatically/writing to a file
