Reddit Video Generator
This project is further explained in this video
This code is meant only for educational reference and will not be maintained. Because of this, the repo is archived and is in a read-only state
This program generates a .mp4 video automatically by querying the top post on the r/askreddit subreddit, and grabbing several comments. The workflow of this program is:
- Install dependencies
- Make a copy of config.example.ini and rename to config.ini
- Register with Reddit to create an application here and copy the credentials
- Use the credentials from the previous step to update config.ini (lines 22 -> 24)
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.
