Reddit Scraper

• Using BeautifulSoup, a python library useful for web scraping, this script helps to scrape a desired subreddit to obtain all relevant data regarding its posts.

• In the fetch_reddit.py , we take user input for the subreddit name, tags and the maximum count of posts to be scraped, we fetch and store all this information in a database file.

• In the display_reddit.py , we display the desired results from the database to the user.

Setup instructions

• The requirements can be installed as follows:

    $ pip install -r requirements.txt
