MemeAPI using flask and praw
Install praw and flask using the following commands
pip install praw
pip install flask
Run the server using the following command
open the config.py file and add your reddit credentials into it.
Usage:
to get one meme: localhost:5000 this fetches memes from default list available in config.py file
to get more than one meme: localhost:5000/{number of memes you want}
to get from different subreddits: localhost:5000/{subreddits}/{number of memes you want}
to get from different subreddits with upvotes limit: localhost:5000/{subreddits}/{number of upvotes}/{number of memes you want}
while passing multiple subreddits via URL, you need to make sure that there are no spaces in between the subreddit names. For example, memes + dankmemes + me_irl doesn't work, it will throw an error. You should use something like this. memes+dankmemes+me_irl"
