Reddit Scraper is a powerful tool that allows you to extract data from Reddit such as posts by keyword. With Reddit Scraper, you can easily gather valuable information from Reddit without the need to log in. You can easily use this Reddit scraper as an alternative API.
To run the code examples, you need to have an Apify account. Replace <YOUR_API_TOKEN> in the code with your API token. For a more detailed explanation, please read about running Actors via the API in Apify Docs.
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
// Initialize the ApifyClient with API token
const client = new ApifyClient({
token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});
// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
"searchList": [
"webscraping"
],
"resultsLimit": 5,
"sortBy": "new",
"proxy": {
"useApifyProxy": true,
"apifyProxyGroups": [
"RESIDENTIAL"
]
}
};
(async () => {
// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("comchat/reddit-api-scraper").call(input);
// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
console.dir(item);
});
})();
