subreddit-image-scraper
Download media from the "top posts of all time" for each subreddit.
Calling
command line --
python {main.py} {count} {data}
{main.py} => the file path to main.py
{count} => the amount of posts to traverse starting from the top of all time, going downward count
{data} => a file path to a text file containing a list of subreddits delimited by a comma and space, or just those subreddits delimited by comma and spaces
e.g. python main.py 20 scorpion, astrophotography, birdpics
Download the top 20 pictures from /r/scorpion, /r/astrophotography, and /r/birdpics
OR
interactive --
python {main.py}
Prompts will come up for the same arguments as the commandline to be filled out in exactly the same way.
Usage notes
The output directory is hard set in tools.py, you'll have to change this until I change it later to be a setting. All subreddits in your list will have a folder created here and any media from those subreddits will be downloaded into those folders.
