In Reddit, we can post a comment to any submission, we can also comment on a comment to create a thread of comments. Any user can either upvote or downvote a comment, the net value is the score of the comment. Here we will see how to fetch the score of a comment using PRAW. We will be using the score
attribute of the Comment
class to fetch the score of a comment.
Example 1 : Consider the following comment :
The ID of the comment is : fvib7aw
# importing the module import praw
# initialize with appropriate values client_id = ""
client_secret = ""
username = ""
password = ""
user_agent = ""
# creating an authorized reddit instance reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id = client_id,
client_secret = client_secret,
username = username,
password = password,
user_agent = user_agent)
# the ID of the comment comment_id = "fvib7aw"
# instantiating the Comment class comment = reddit.comment(comment_id)
# fetching the score attribute score = comment.score
print ( "The score of the comment is : " + str (score))
|
Output :
The score of the comment is : 25
Example 2 : Consider the following comment:
The ID of the comment is : fv9qvgo
# importing the module import praw
# initialize with appropriate values client_id = ""
client_secret = ""
username = ""
password = ""
user_agent = ""
# creating an authorized reddit instance reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id = client_id,
client_secret = client_secret,
username = username,
password = password,
user_agent = user_agent)
# the ID of the comment comment_id = "fv9qvgo"
# instantiating the Comment class comment = reddit.comment(comment_id)
# fetching the score attribute score = comment.score
print ( "The score of the comment is : " + str (score))
|
Output :
The score of the comment is : 4
