3. node ., and that's it!

• Create a Reddit account

  • Change "username" under reddit to the account's username.
  • Change "password" under reddit to the account's password.

• Create a Reddit app here

  • Select the 3rd option: "script".
  • Set "name" and "redirect_uri" to whatever you wish.
  • Click create.
  • Change "clientID" and "clientSecret" under reddit according to the picture.

• Create a Discord bot, tutorial here

  • Change "token" to Bot <your_token>, example: Bot O89gea98hgn
  • Change "guildID" under custom to the ID of the server you want to use the bot in.

• Remove "[REPLACE_ME]" || in the config.js if you are going to be using env. e.g. token: "Bot [REPLACE_ME]" || process.env.discord_token, would be changed to token: process.env.discord_token, and in env you would put token=Bot <your_token>.

Done!

1. --forcefetch to quickly check if it works.
2. The bot will now post every 6 hours. (modify the duration inside the code in the "ready" event [line 37] )

Because the library used for Reddit is quite old ("snoowrap", 2 years), ratelimits are not handled at all. You might experience the process crashing with 429 errors. To prevent this, lower the amount of posts fetched. The max should be 1000-900 posts in 10 minutes, if we are to trust the X-ratelimit headers.
