This program generates a .mp4 video automatically by querying the top post on the r/askreddit subreddit, and grabbing several comments. To use this program:

  • Install dependencies
  • Register with Reddit to create and API application here
  • Use the credentials from the previous step to update reddit.py line 46-51
  • Make a copy of config.example.ini and rename to config.ini

Now, you can run python main.py to be prompted for which post to choose. Alternatively, you can run python main.py <reddit-post-id> to create a video for a specific post.
