Edit: Unfortunately, even after a month after this tutorial was posted, we (as well as moderators of other subreddits) have seen a distinct uptick in bots that do not follow bottiquette and post unwanted and low-effort content. While there's no inherent issue with teaching people how to program via practical examples, we feel that shouldn't come at the expense of others. Consequently, we're removing this post in an effort to help minimize this (unfortunate), ongoing behavior.

And thus the flood gates opened and thousands of bots stormed the shores of various subreddits. What humankind does with knowledge more often than not leads to his own downfall.
Yeah, I would like to see a 3rd bullet under "important information - please read"
3: please make your bot opt-in for subreddits, and not "opt out". Not every subreddit wants to be overrun by random bots, and if you piss off enough people they'll complain to the admins and try to get you banned.
Or just "This is botiquette. Read it. Know it. Allow it to fill your whole being. Bots that do not follow this document will be hated by basically everyone and reported to the admins."

Sweet, we can add them to the pile.
Looks good! The one suggestion I have is to, in the comment parsing code, instead of parsing the number yourself using a Regex capturing group.
This is my replacement Regex which incorporates the capturing group as well as the changes you mentioned (optional https and www.) with a couple other things like escaping periods.
Thanks for your suggestion. I really appreciate it.
I did not implement an advanced regex as I was looking for people to come out with them, so that they can get an understanding of how a regex can be improved. I'll look into your implementation, and possibly push it to the repo.
What does this do (?:www\.)?? What I make out of it is that (?)? is a non-capturing group. But if I remove both question marks (making it a normal capturing group), all maches fail.
That bit is a non-capturing group matching the literal www. the entirety of which is optional.
If you remove the ?: from after the opening paren, that changes the group to be a capturing group, so group 1 will be www. and group 2 will be the number. (I think the issue that you ran into is that you need to remove the : as well, both the ?: make the group non-capturing, and if you remove just the ?, the : will be part of the match.)
If you remove the second ? from after the group, it makes the group non-optional, meaning that the URL must contain the www. prefix before xkcd.com.
thanks, I totally understand what's going on now!
Huh. I made a Reddit bot yesterday. And it was a coolest thing I have ever done. What a coincidence. But I haven't fully implemented in a website yet. And I still need more ideas for better bot as well.
Coming up with a good idea is the hardest part IMO.

!book Crime and punishment
Through the story of the brilliant but conflicted young Raskolnikov and the murder he commits, Fyodor Dostoevsky explores the theme of redemption through suffering. Crime and Punishment put Dostoevsky at the forefront of Russian writers when it appeared in 1866 and is now one of the most famous and influential novels in world literature.The poverty-stricken Raskolnikov, a talented student, devises a theory about extraordinary men being above the law, since in their brilliance they think “new thoughts” and so contribute to society. He then sets out to prove his theory by murdering a vile, cynical old pawnbroker and her sister. The act brings Raskolnikov into contact with his own buried conscience and with two characters — the deeply religious Sonia, who has endured great suffering, and Porfiry, the intelligent and discerning official who is charged with investigating the murder — both of whom compel Raskolnikov to feel the split in his nature. Dostoevsky provides readers with a suspenseful, penetrating psychological analysis that goes beyond the crime — which in the course of the novel demands drastic punishment — to reveal something about the human condition: The more we intellectualize, the more imprisoned we become.

!book The Kite Runner
“It may be unfair, but what happens in a few days, sometimes even a single day, can change the course of a whole lifetime." Amir is the son of a wealthy Kabul merchant, a member of the ruling caste of Pashtuns. Hassan, his servant and constant companion, is a Hazara, a despised and impoverished caste. Their uncommon bond is torn by Amir's choice to abandon his friend amidst the increasing ethnic, religious, and political tensions of the dying years of the Afghan monarchy, wrenching them far apart. But so strong is the bond between the two boys that Amir journeys back to a distant world, to try to right past wrongs against the only true friend he ever had.The unforgettable, heartbreaking story of the unlikely friendship between a wealthy boy and the son of his father’s servant, The Kite Runner is a beautifully crafted novel set in a country that is in the process of being destroyed. It is about the power of reading, the price of betrayal, and the possibility of redemption; and an exploration of the power of fathers over sons—their love, their sacrifices, their lies.A sweeping story of family, love, and friendship told against the devastating backdrop of the history of Afghanistan over the last thirty years, The Kite Runner is an unusual and powerful novel that has become a beloved, one-of-a-kind classic.

!book Atlas Shrugged
This is the story of a man who said that he would stop the motor of the world and did. Was he a destroyer or the greatest of liberators?Why did he have to fight his battle, not against his enemies, but against those who needed him most, and his hardest battle against the woman he loved? What is the world’s motor — and the motive power of every man? You will know the answer to these questions when you discover the reason behind the baffling events that play havoc with the lives of the characters in this story. Tremendous in its scope, this novel presents an astounding panorama of human life — from the productive genius who becomes a worthless playboy — to the great steel industrialist who does not know that he is working for his own destruction — to the philosopher who becomes a pirate — to the composer who gives up his career on the night of his triumph — to the woman who runs a transcontinental railroad — to the lowest track worker in her Terminal tunnels. You must be prepared, when you read this novel, to check every premise at the root of your convictions.This is a mystery story, not about the murder — and rebirth — of man’s spirit. It is a philosophical revolution, told in the form of an action thriller of violent events, a ruthlessly brilliant plot structure and an irresistible suspense. Do you say this is impossible? Well, that is the first of your premises to check.

!book Mein Kampf
Madman, tyrant, animal - history has given Adolf Hitler many names. In Mein Kampf (My Struggle), often called the Nazi bible, Hitler describes his life, frustrations, ideals, and dreams. Born to an impoverished couple in a small town in Austria, the young Adolf grew up with the fervent desire to become a painter. The death of his parents and outright rejection from art schools in Vienna forced him into underpaid work as a labourer. During the First World War, Hitler served in the infantry and was decorated for bravery. After the war, he became actively involved with socialist political groups and quickly rose to power, establishing himself as Chairman of the National Socialist German Worker's party. In 1924, Hitler led a coalition of nationalist groups in a bid to overthrow the Bavarian government in Munich. The infamous Munich "Beer-hall putsch" was unsuccessful, and Hitler was arrested. During the nine months he was in prison, an embittered and frustrated Hitler dictated a personal manifesto to his loyal follower Rudolph Hess. He vented his sentiments against communism and the Jewish people in this document, which was to become Mein Kampf, the controversial book that is seen as the blue-print for Hitler's political and military campaign. In Mein Kampf, Hitler describes his strategy for rebuilding Germany and conquering Europe. It is a glimpse into the mind of a man who destabilized world peace and pursued the genocide now known as the Holocaust. "... I believe today that my conduct is in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator. In standing guard against the Jew I am defending the handiwork of the Lord"

When (not if---the deal has already been signed) this terrific thriller gets made into a movie, you might see Morgan Freeman as a crusty lawyer who specializes in taking on the military establishment tell the actress playing ace Boston barrister and Harvard Law professor Claire Heller Chapman, "Every civilian who's ever gone into a military general court-martial and tried to attack the foundations of the military has lost his case. No exceptions. The military is a tight, closed fraternity. They take it real serious. Military justice is a deadly serious business." Claire has to realize this as she prepares to defend her husband--the man she knows as Tom Chapman, but who the Army says is Ron Kubik-- on charges that he took part in a massacre of 87 civilians in San Salvador 13 years before. Full of doubts about Tom's innocence and her own ability to prove it in an unfamiliar arena, Claire is brought to exciting, moving life by the extravagantly gifted Joseph Finder, whose previous thrillers (Extraordinary Powers, The Zero Hour) are available in paperback.

I've never made a reddit bot so I'm not sure what the pros/cons would be.

A bank of clouds was assembling on the not-so-distant horizon, but journalist-mountaineer Jon Krakauer, standing on the summit of Mt. Everest, saw nothing that "suggested that a murderous storm was bearing down." He was wrong. The storm, which claimed five lives and left countless more--including Krakauer's--in guilt-ridden disarray, would also provide the impetus for Into Thin Air, Krakauer's epic account of the May 1996 disaster.

Holy shit you are awesome. I've been thinking this past week about writing a bot for reddit but had no idea how to get started. Thank you!
Thanks for putting this together! Just getting started and haven't spent much time with Python but seems like a nice reach project as I learn.
I hope you find it useful

You need to start a blog/website! If you can contribute knowledge like this it deserves to be enclosed in something more withstanding than reddit post!
you say remember we created a praw.ini earlier but i never saw any reference to that prior.
Please see https://github.com/aydwi/explainxkcdbot/blob/master/README.md
I tried to turn your GitHub links into permanent links (press "y" to do this yourself):
^(Shoot me a PM if you think I'm doing something wrong.)^( To delete this, click) ^here^.
Do we create the file in the project directory?
Yes
Nice work. I avoid the Requests library because it doesn't play nice with JavaScript. I built a bot to do mock fantasy football drafts on the ESPN website and put in several hours before getting to the final step and having to start over because they arbitrarily decided to use a JS button instead of an HTML button.
Selenium-webdriver is the way to go IMO

If you have windows 10 you should be able to get ubuntu terminal by turning on developer mode and running "lxrun /install /y" in a cmd.
https://www.howtogeek.com/249966/how-to-install-and-use-the-linux-bash-shell-on-windows-10/
It is not necessary. But installing and managing packages/libraries in a Windows environment follows a different process
http://scoop.sh/
It's a Windows package manager like Chocolatey but for dev tools. Watch the video at that link to see how it works.
EDIT Nevermind, solution found. I was making a simple mistake when trying to convert from bytes to string.**
First of all, thank you for this post. We all appreciate the time and effort you put into this.
I do have a question though. I feel like this is a simple problem, but I've been struggling to find a solution. My bot is supposed to return price information of trading cards. I'm using yugiohprices api to get the information.
I'm trying to use: JData = json.loads(myResponse.content)
The issue is that the response is given in bytes and needs to be a string. I've tried a few ways to convert bytes to string but haven't been successful. I really do appreciate any help, thanks in advance.
So how much Adderall have you consumed in the past 24 hours?

I have a question.
Since i am tight on budget, can i use my Android Phone (Xperia ZL) as a tools instead of Raspberry Pi?
Maybe. Look into QPython, QPython3, or Termux.
Awesome guide, thank you so much for this!
It's been removed, what happened?
Still cached on Google. Copy the post title and paste it into google...
Can't find it on Indian domain, do you know the OP's GitHub ID?
I do not. You could message them directly though.
Good news , I found the link on one of the bot's test threads, 👍
Thanks for delivering,OP!
I had to :)
Did you just show everyone how to break Reddit? O.0
Que Reddit getting spammed by thousands of home made bots - maybe this is how Skynet is born...
Thanks, I know what I'll be doing with my next weekend.
Remindme! 24 hours "read and maybe try"
No need to include a 'maybe' in there - we're all here to learn and willing to help each other out of you're stuck :-)

How large can commented.txt get before it starts taking a while to read into memory?
I wouldn't even write the Id to a text file. You could just try saving every comment you reply to, then doing a check if the comment is saved before you reply. The methods are .save() and .saved
You can do that, but accessing a local copy of comment ID is much faster than accessing the state of a comment (saved or unsaved) over the Reddit API
I doubt it's a noticable slow down. Also, are you sure the save state isn't already loaded when you fetch comments, or is it a property which makes a request only when you access the attribute? If so, the only additional request is to save the comment.
I can't provide an exact figure on the size of the file without running some tests myself.
You can access the file element wise instead of loading the whole file when reading, which will be a slower process.
Thanks for this!
I was just looking for this as a way to start out in Python (and really something other than Powershell) and it is great. Thank you for putting work into this.
Awesome write up!
Thanks a lot
Thanks! Will give this a go at some point soon. Another possible use for my pi.
Can I use R to create a similar bot?
You can write a bot in R. There are some Reddit API wrappers available for R, you can also check them out!
How kind of you, man. This is exactly what I've needed to begin learning Python. You have my gratitude.
I appreciate it
This looks great! I've been looking for some fun project ideas to help me learn Python. Thanks for the write-up.
Brilliant and very clearly explained. Thank you
Thanks man great guide
Help! When I enter in the python3 botname.py command nothing happens, it seems like it's loading something, but then it just prompts me right back to terminal line.
Can you post the code you are trying to run

I'm going to do it. First question what is a Reddit Bot? Second question, what do pythons eat?
I need someone to build me an auto checkout bot for an art website that I frequent. The small edition sizes makes it nearly impossible to score because other users are using bots.
Thank you so much for this. I've always wanted to learn python and this looks like a fun project.
Well thanks for this!
Looking forward to trying this out in the near future, thanks for posting it!

OP Delivers!
Thanks so much. I'm looking forward to working through this.
Which version on Python should people use for this code? There are big differences between Python 2 and 3, right?

Nice work! I'm definitely recommending this post to programming newbies since your explanations were so lucid.

OP is a God
Been wanting to do some python for a while and this seems like a great into. Thanks!
You should put this guide on Github so we can make pull requests.
Hi, I'd like to know why does it take so long to check whether a comment as already been replied to. To me it seems like it should be extremely fast, it just has to open a 1KB txt file and check whether it has some number in it or not. But it takes anywhere from 5-15 seconds for me.
Thanks for the nice tutorial, built a nice bot with this. :)
saving this for weekend fun!
Thank you very much for the tutorial, there's some really good stuff here. Anytime you want to make some tutorials I'm willing to follow them!
I can get the bot to find the comments, print them out, and it says it replies to them. The praw API returns a post ID with a successful post, however, the bot doesn't comment on my thread. I limited the amount of comments to get and it still can't find it despite my test thread being almost brand new. Is there a way to directly use the comment ID's to find the url of the actual post. I've tried to copy and past them after the r/test/comment ID url to no avail.
Please show me the code you are trying to run. I'll try to help.
https://pastebin.com/8yvbkUtD
As far as I know it's pretty much exactly the code in the tutorials. I appreciate you looking into it.
This dude's a genius :)
Would anyone be interested in a group project to make a r/popular/all bot for posts from r/Sweden?
Basically:
Read title, translate (google translate or whatever), add to comment.
Read comments above certain upvote count or top comments after x hours, translate, add to comment.
Maybe some way to direct better translation to appropriate Google area.
Post.
Hi so I want to start this but I'm already having trouble installing this pip thing. Here there are two links that both are supposed to tell me how to install it but one says something about linux (I have win 10) and the other is a python file? Is there no installer? Also Pycharm shows me that the code has 5 errors and countless typos.
EDIT: Also how do I get PRAW, Python Requests and Beautiful Soup 4?
RemindMe! Tomorrow

!book Mein Kampf
hey, so you say in step 2 that earlier you made praw.ini, but I'm not sure where you do this. Was that actually what was done in step 1, or was it in a link I missed.
Thank you for the guide.
I am now a fully-functional bot set on ~~destroying humanity~~ improving reddit usability.
Beep boop.
Is there a streaming api instead of polling 250 comments at a time?
Yes there is. If you are using PRAW, the class SubredditStream provides submission and comment streams. You can read the documentation here.
I chose to retrieve 250 comments to maintain simplicity at the time.
Thanks for the reply! That's great thank you. I can't believe I missed it when looking at the API.
whats the advantage using a stream?
Thanks for posting this, I have a few questions.
First of all, does the string for user_agent come from anything, or is it just a description?
Second, when on windows, since the file path uses backslashes, should I write the path name as 'c:\users\...'?
Third, I couldn't find anything titled client_id on the app page of my reddit account. I'm assuming that the id is the string under the words 'personal use script.' Is that correct?
Again, thank you so much for writing this up, I'm really trying to learn more about applying what I know about coding to real projects. This helps so much.
The user_agent is a descriptive string. See this for more information.
The path should specify the location of the file, and it can take any form depending on your machine
Yes, the client_id is the string under the words 'personal use script'
why removed ? I was just about to get it done

Great write up! A project that I've been wanting to take on for a while now!
Sweet baby Jesus. I got 5 hours left on shift with fuck all left to do.
Thank you for the exercise.
Been wanting to write a bot lately, this will come in handy. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this! I will be experimenting as soon as my homework is done lol

On a hot July afternoon, a worker at an Antietam Creek construction site drives the blade of his backhoe into a layer of soil — and strikes a 5,000-year-old human skull. The discovery draws plenty of attention and a lot of controversy. It also changes the life of one woman in ways she never expected...As an archaeologist, Callie Dunbrook knows a lot about the past. But her own past is about to be called into question. Recruited for her expertise on the Antietam Creek dig, she encounters danger — as a cloud of death and misfortune hangs over the project, and rumors fly that the site is cursed. She finds a passion that feels equally dangerous, as she joins forces in her work with her irritating, but irresistible, ex-husband, Jake. And when a strange woman approaches her, claiming to know a secret about Callie’s privileged Boston childhood, some startling and unsettling questions are raised about her very identity.Searching for answers, trying to rebuild, Callie finds that there are deceptions and sorrows that refuse to stay buried. And as she struggles to put the pieces back together, she discovers that the healing process comes with consequences — and that there are people who will do anything to make sure the truth is never revealed

Wait, does this mean I'll be running my bot from my machine? is there a free online hosting where I could run my bot amok 24/7 for free?
there will not be anything more free than running it from your machine lol. Look around though there are some basic free hostings out there.

Thank you1
Comment
Hi! Great job! May I suggest that you explain a way to host your bot? As not everyone can keep their PC running forever.
I'm using AWS (free tier) for mine, but I know there are alternatives like Heroku.
BTW:
!author Tolkien
:P
Or, even simpler: a Raspberry Pi, Orange Pi, Pine A64, or any of the mini computers available for next to nothing.
How is using having to setup and maintain a pi easier than just doing a few commands on heroku?
Once setup, Raspberry Pis are extremely low maintenance. You can even let them autoupdate if you wish to (which I never do).
As opposed to Windows machines, Raspberries run without reboots every so often.
I prefer to have full control over my installations and bots and not to depend on some third party remote hosting.

Fun != Simpler
I'm planning on buying one!
Be prepared to buy a bunch. It never ends at one...
Currently, I have:

Planned at home
Nice collection! Giving the fact that I'm a student that's about to move from spain to sweden to study my masters... I think I can only afford one!
Where in sweden? (PM) im a CS student with lots of Pi's. Join me with my projects
Pi0w is only $10, of course you can only buy one at a time.
Well, that's excluding an HDMI, USB cable, SD (TF) card and (maybe) a display/touchscreen.
That's not to say however that it's not dirt cheap anyway.
Thats true, but the kits are not crazy expensive. I have tried using the pi on a small screen, and it is not fun. I cannot see a thing.
Most of the time I try to run headless.
[deleted]
Thanks for that. I knew about Home assistant and OpenHAB, but didn't know about bellows. Bookmarked.
Hi, a Pi network tool could be useful! Could you explain what kind of tools you could use it for?
We use it as ping checker, NTP server, DNS (if we don't use a Windows Domain), arp, traceroute, OpenVPN, and what we can think of. It's not yet fully determined what else we are going to use it for.
Key is, Raspberries allow quick network changing and this is what we need for our work. Also, they are not bound by any Windows Firewall rules that we need enabled.
Does the 100mb limitation of the NIC not really come into play in your network testing?
Not really because we don't need to test for network throughput. The main testing we need the Raspi for is in house. Mainly just to troubleshoot our internal test networks if there are some connectivity issues.
We have a separate throughput tester for copper and fibre networks as such networks are part of the installations on the project sites.
Are raspberry pi's easy to setup? Does it involve any soldering etc? I kind of want to try it out.
[deleted]
The proper name is microSD.
Oohh interesting! I thought it involves soldering and whatnot cos I don't have a soldering iron with me.
Yes. All that needs to be done is to "burn" the OS image to a micro SD card and then boot the Raspberry with it.
Can involve soldering but does not necessarily do it. A stock Raspberry (except for the GPIO pins on the PI zero series) doesn't need any soldering.
Damn. Now I'm really interested. Gonna look more into pi's later today.
Do you pay for those MagPi issues right? I'm too broke to pay for them so I haven't read one in so long, lol.
You can download all issues (including back issues and specials) in PDF for free from the website. Am on mobile so I can't link to the site.

No GPS. DCF77 is based on longwave radio and older than GPS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DCF77
This works only in central Europe.
The Raspberry is connected to a DCF77 receiver. This is a cheap and fairly simple setup.
DCF77
DCF77 is a German longwave time signal and standard-frequency radio station. It started service as a standard-frequency station on 1 January 1959. In June 1973 date and time information was added. Its primary and backup transmitter are located at 50°0′56″N 9°00′39″E in Mainflingen, about 25 km south-east of Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

I have a serious fetish for dev boards. I started getting into microchip curiosities. MPLABX with code configurator makes it fun and fast. I like electromechanical projects, it allows you to speed through or skip config bits and get straight to the good stuff. But I have piles of Arduinos and PI's. It's cheap and the possibilities are literally endless.
Can you explain the advantage of using a separate unit to host each project? Why not just use a single, more powerful home server? Thanks.
For me it's flexibility. I like to move things around and have them where I want them.
Sure, I could use a proper server and work with virtual machines, but Raspberries (and their clones) are cheap enough and fun enough to play with. I didn't get all of them at once. They sort of accumulated.
Quite a few of them are in my office which is 200km away from home.
Any source code for this or similar? I need this in my life but I'm also lazy :P
Yes, got the code. It isn't my development: https://github.com/d-rez/magpi-fetch
Don't know for sure but there could be some changes necessary due to Dropbox having changed their API lately.
Dear god, the bots are buying each other now!!
Already own a pi, trying that as soon as I get some spare time

Which AWS service?
You will need to ask the original commenter, I only quoted the above.
Might be the Amazon Web Service in the free tier
But there's EB, EC2, Lightsail....

A DigitalOcean 512mb instance ($5/mo, free for a couple of months with basic promo codes) would run this bot without issue.
An even cheaper option is Vultr. They have 512MB instances for $2.50/month.
Wow, did not know about Vultr, looks good enough to give them a try. Thank you!
Not with that attitude indeed.
