Example
// example
const path = require('path')
redditApiImageGetter = require('reddit-api-image-getter')
getter = new redditApiImageGetter()
// `getHotImagesOfSubReddit('subreddit')`
// returns a Promise, that, when successful returns
// an Array containing RedditImageEntry object instances.
//
// Each RedditImageEntry object is then passed to
// `saveRedditImageEntryToDisk(imageEntry, path)`
// to be saved to disk.
//
// See what each RedditImageEntry does in
// lib/classes/RedditImageEntry.js and lib/classes/RedditEntry.js
//
// get the top images of a subreddit: using
// getTopImagesOfSubReddit(subreddit = 'ProgrammerHumor')
//
getter.getHotImagesOfSubReddit('ProgrammerHumor').then(function (result) {
for (imageEntry of result) {
const targetDirectory = path.resolve(__dirname, 'images', 'hot');
getter.saveRedditImageEntryToDisk(imageEntry, targetDirectory);
}
}).catch(function (error) {
console.log(error)
})
getter.getTopImagesOfSubReddit('ProgrammerHumor').then(function (result) {
for (imageEntry of result) {
// do begin with a starting '/' if you need to:
// https://nodejs.org/api/path.html#path_path_resolve_paths
const targetDirectory = path.resolve(__dirname, 'images', 'top');
getter.saveRedditImageEntryToDisk(imageEntry, targetDirectory);
