NAME
Mojo::Snoo - Mojo wrapper for the Reddit API
DESCRIPTION
Mojo::Snoo is a Perl wrapper for the Reddit API which relies heavily on the Mojo modules. Mojo::Collection was the initial inspiration for going the Mojo route. Skip to synopsis to see how Mojo::Snoo can be great for one-liners, quick scripts, and full-blown applications!
SYNOPSIS
use Mojo::Snoo;
# OAuth ONLY. Reddit is deprecating cookie auth soon.
my $snoo = Mojo::Snoo->new(
username => 'foobar',
password => 'very_secret',
client_id => 'oauth_client_id',
client_secret => 'very_secret_oauth',
);
# upvote each post in /r/Perl (casing does not matter)
$snoo->subreddit('Perl')->things->each(
sub { $_->upvote }
);
# Don't want to login? That's fine.
# You can stick to methods which don't require login.
# Omitting auth details is nice for one-liners:
# print names of moderators from /r/Perl
Mojo::Snoo->new->subreddit('Perl')->mods->each( sub { say $_->name } );
# or do the same via Mojo::Snoo::Subreddit
Mojo::Snoo::Subreddit->new('Perl')->mods->each( sub { say $_->name } );
# print title and author of each post (or "thing") from /r/Perl
# returns 25 "hot" posts by default
Mojo::Snoo::Subreddit->new('Perl')->things->each( sub { say $_->title, ' posted by ', $_->author } );
# get only self posts
@selfies = Mojo::Snoo::Subreddit->new('Perl')->things->grep( sub { $_->is_self } );
# get the top 3 controversial posts ("things") on /r/AskReddit
@things = Mojo::Snoo::Subreddit->new('Perl')->things_contro_all(3);
# print past week's top video URLs from /r/videos
Mojo::Snoo::Subreddit->new('Perl')->things_top_week->each( sub { say $_->url } );
# print the /r/Perl subreddit description
say Mojo::Snoo->new->subreddit('Perl')->about->description;
# even fetch a subreddit's header image!
say Mojo::Snoo->new->subreddit('Perl')->about->header_img;

WHY SNOO?

Reddit's licensing changes prohibit the word "reddit" from being used in the name of reddit API clients.
