rawr
Welcome to rawr, the Rust API Wrapper for Reddit. This library provides simple, pain-free access to the Reddit API in Rust. If you want to create a Reddit bot, scrape data from the API or create a web application powered by Reddit's API, rawr can help to do this simply and effectively.
Features
- Support for password-based authentication (with OAuth support, so your app is future-proof!) and anonymous authentication.
- Iterable post and comment listings that automatically fetch data from the API as necessary.
- 'Streams' to fetch the latest threads/comments/messages that update automatically by polling the API - ideal for bots that react to new posts.
Examples
extern crate rawr;
use rawr::prelude::*;
fn main() {
// Creates a new client to access the reddit API. You need to set a user agent so Reddit knows
// who is using this client.
let client = RedditClient::new("your user agent here", AnonymousAuthenticator::new());
// Access the subreddit /r/rust.
let subreddit = client.subreddit("rust");
// Gets the hot listing of /r/rust. If the API request fails, we will panic with `expect`.
let mut hot_listing = subreddit.hot(ListingOptions::default()).expect("Could not fetch post listing!");
// Iterates through the top 50 posts of /r/rust. If you do not `take(n)`, this iterator will
// continue forever!
for post in hot_listing.take(50) {
println!("{}", post.title());
}
}
