Jaribio

Python code for /u/Jaribio, the bot who runs /r/Jaribio. New version can be found at https://github.com/jarhill0/PrivateSubBot.

Guide to configuration (may not be complete):

1. set target_sub in the script

2. place UserList.txt in the directory you plan to run the script from (I run the script from the same directory that I save it in, but you could theoretically run it from somewhere else), and format it as follows:

   name1
   name2
   name3
   

   (list Reddit usernames followed imediately by newlines (no spaces). Make sure the file ends in a newline.

3. In the directory you plan to run the script from, create a directory named Resources

4. In Resources, create the following files (each with no spaces or newlines at the end of the file):

• TotalUserLogs.txt which is an integer that represents the total number of logs already posted.
• total_re_adds.txt which is an integer that represents the total number of re-adds already performed (0 if none)

5. In the main directory, create a file named praw.ini that follows the example format:

   [Jaribio]
   client_id=Y4PJOclpDQy3xZ
   client_secret=UkGLTe6oqsMk5nHCJTHLrwgvHpr
   password=pni9ubeht4wd50gk
   username=fakebot1
   

• username should be the username of the bot
• password should be the password of the bot
• client_id and client_secret should be the client id and client secret from the reddit API (instructions here)

I think this should get you up and running, but I'm not positive…

You also need to create a subreddit that your bot is moderator of, with flair css classes for number, numbernew, and kicked
