Subreddit¶

class praw.models.Subreddit(reddit: praw.Reddit, display_name: Optional[str] = None, _data: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None)¶

A class for Subreddits.

To obtain an instance of this class for subreddit r/redditdev execute:

subreddit = reddit.subreddit("redditdev")

While r/all is not a real subreddit, it can still be treated like one. The following outputs the titles of the 25 hottest submissions in r/all:

for submission in reddit.subreddit("all").hot(limit=25):
    print(submission.title)

Multiple subreddits can be combined with a + like so:

for submission in reddit.subreddit("redditdev+learnpython").top("all"):
    print(submission)

Subreddits can be filtered from combined listings as follows.

Note

These filters are ignored by certain methods, including comments, gilded(), and SubredditStream.comments().

for submission in reddit.subreddit("all-redditdev").new():
    print(submission)

Typical Attributes

This table describes attributes that typically belong to objects of this class. Since attributes are dynamically provided (see Determine Available Attributes of an Object), there is not a guarantee that these attributes will always be present, nor is this list necessarily complete.

`can_assign_link_flair`	Whether users can assign their own link flair.
`can_assign_user_flair`	Whether users can assign their own user flair.
`created_utc`	Time the subreddit was created, represented in Unix Time.
`description`	Subreddit description, in Markdown.
`description_html`	Subreddit description, in HTML.
`display_name`	Name of the subreddit.
`id`	ID of the subreddit.
`name`	Fullname of the subreddit.

url – The URL for a link submission.
collection_id – The UUID of a Collection to add the newly-submitted post to.
flair_id – The flair template to select (default: None).
flair_text – If the template’s flair_text_editable value is True, this value will set a custom text (default: None). flair_id is required when flair_text is provided.

send_replies – When True, messages will be sent to the submission author when comments are made to the submission (default: True).
nsfw – Whether or not the submission should be marked NSFW (default: False).
spoiler – Whether or not the submission should be marked as a spoiler (default: False).
discussion_type – Set to CHAT to enable live discussion instead of traditional comments (default: None).
inline_media – A dict of InlineMedia objects where the key is the placeholder name in selftext.

Returns

A Submission object for the newly created submission.

Either selftext or url can be provided, but not both.

For example, to submit a URL to r/reddit_api_test do:

title = "PRAW documentation"
url = "https://praw.readthedocs.io"
reddit.subreddit("reddit_api_test").submit(title, url=url)

For example, to submit a self post with inline media do:

from praw.models import InlineGif, InlineImage, InlineVideo

gif = InlineGif("path/to/image.gif", "optional caption")
image = InlineImage("path/to/image.jpg", "optional caption")
video = InlineVideo("path/to/video.mp4", "optional caption")
selftext = "Text with a gif {gif1} an image {image1} and a video {video1} inline"
media = {"gif1": gif, "image1": image, "video1": video}
reddit.subreddit("redditdev").submit("title", selftext=selftext, inline_media=media)

Note

Inserted media will have a padding of \\n\\n automatically added. This is due to the weirdness with Reddit’s API. Using the example above, the result selftext body will look like so:

Text with a gif

![gif](u1rchuphryq51 "optional caption")

an image

![img](srnr8tshryq51 "optional caption")

and video

![video](gmc7rvthryq51 "optional caption")

Add an image submission to the subreddit.

Parameters

title – The title of the submission.
image_path – The path to an image, to upload and post.
collection_id – The UUID of a Collection to add the newly-submitted post to.
flair_id – The flair template to select (default: None).
flair_text – If the template’s flair_text_editable value is True, this value will set a custom text (default: None). flair_id is required when flair_text is provided.
resubmit – When False, an error will occur if the URL has already been submitted (default: True).

discussion_type – Set to CHAT to enable live discussion instead of traditional comments (default: None).

Returns

A Submission object for the newly created submission, unless without_websockets is True.

Raises

ClientException if image_path refers to a file that is not an image.

Note

Reddit’s API uses WebSockets to respond with the link of the newly created post. If this fails, the method will raise WebSocketException. Occasionally, the Reddit post will still be created. More often, there is an error with the image file. If you frequently get exceptions but successfully created posts, try setting the timeout parameter to a value above 10.

To disable the use of WebSockets, set without_websockets=True. This will make the method return None, though the post will still be created. You may wish to do this if you are running your program in a restricted network environment, or using a proxy that doesn’t support WebSockets connections.

For example, to submit an image to r/reddit_api_test do:

title = "My favorite picture"
image = "/path/to/image.png"
reddit.subreddit("reddit_api_test").submit_image(title, image)

reddit.subreddit("test").subscribe()

top(time_filter: str = 'all', **generator_kwargs: Union[str, int, Dict[str, str]]) → Iterator[Any]¶

Return a ListingGenerator for top submissions.

Parameters: time_filter – Can be one of: all, day, hour, month, week, year (default: all).

Return a dictionary of the subreddit’s traffic statistics.

Raises: prawcore.NotFound when the traffic stats aren’t available to the authenticated user, that is, they are not public and the authenticated user is not a moderator of the subreddit.

The traffic method returns a dict with three keys. The keys are day, hour and month. Each key contains a list of lists with 3 or 4 values. The first value is a timestamp indicating the start of the category (start of the day for the day key, start of the hour for the hour key, etc.). The second, third, and fourth values indicate the unique pageviews, total pageviews, and subscribers, respectively.

Note

The hour key does not contain subscribers, and therefore each sub-list contains three values.

For example, to get the traffic stats for r/test:

stats = reddit.subreddit("test").traffic()

print(wikipage.content_md)

Note

This list of attributes is not complete. PRAW dynamically provides the attributes that Reddit returns via the API. Because those attributes are subject to change on Reddit’s end, PRAW makes no effort to document them, other than to instruct you on how to discover what is available. See Determine Available Attributes of an Object for detailed information.
