I have some code from a similar project that can be adapted to create a Reddit Agent

Hey @amacgregor, that'd be very cool.

I was thinking about taking a stab at this reddit agent. I've been using the website scraper to grab all posts on the new section of a subreddit and parse the json using a trigger agent.

The website agent already has most of the functionality we would need for an iteration 0 of grabbing from reddit. Some things I would want to see built-in:

  • Grabbing posts from hot/new/rising/controversial views of a sub-reddit
  • option to choose ssl or not (http vs https)
  • Following a particular user's posts

The functionality above deals with just scraping pages anonymously. I can imagine having the ability to log-in to your account, and perform actions as well. Thoughts?

Hey @mcgriddle. Welcome!

I could see two approaches:

  1. you might be able to achieve most of the above using Huginn itself, with a set of WebsiteAgents and triggers. (You might need to add a few small missing features to Huginn as well.)

  2. You could make a dedicated RedditAgent that did portions of the above in pure Ruby.

So I started to write some code around a reddit agent, but the more I dug into it the more opinionated I realized the agent would have to be. I prefer just to use the existing agents: Website -> Deduplication -> Trigger -> Formatter -> Pushbullet

You could put those in a Scenario and then export and share it.

Hey guys. I've started on this as my first agent, it's in a very rough, but functional state:
https://github.com/kholbekj/huginn/blob/reddit_agent/app/models/agents/reddit_agent.rb

It currently serves my intended purposes, but I'd love some feedback to refine it and create a PR <3

Hey @kholbekj, welcome! This might be a good candidate for pulling into a gem using https://github.com/cantino/huginn_agent. You're also welcome to make a preliminary PR to Huginn with this and we can give some feedback.

Okay, I'll start with the PR then, and look into extraction at some point!
