/snoo.vim

Reddit browser for vim

Primary LanguageVim script

Snoo.vim

Browse Reddit inside Vim

Usage

  • Open the front page of a subreddit using :Snoo [subreddit]
  • Use Leader + g on a post ID to display it

Installation

The strength of snoo.vim is that it doesn't require a special installation of vim running Python, 20 000+ external libraries or things like that (only vim 8.*):

  • The data is loaded from Reddit via the public '.json' API
  • It is then parsed by the json_decode() function

The only drawback is that you can only read posts and comments and can't engage, as account login requires oAuth authentification
