reddit-to-telegram

This script will watch the new content on a subreddit and post to a Telegram channel.

Config

  • Create a praw.ini file:
[default]
client_id: <client id>
client_secret: <client secret>
username: <reddit user name>
password: <reddit user password>

  • Set the following env vars:

    • SUBREDDIT - subreddit name
    • TOKEN - Telegram bot token
    • CHANNEL - Telegram chat name (the bot has to be added as Administrator)

  • Run python3 telegram_poster.py

Notes

The last sent submission id is being stored in last_submission.id file, so if this file exists the bot will skip all submissions in the previous ones until this ID is found - or a new submission has been posted appears (this is determined by UTC timestamp of the submission and bot start time)
