URS (Universal Reddit Scraper) is a comprehensive command-line tool written in Python (with Rust components) for scraping and archiving Reddit data. It supports scraping subreddits, redditors, submission comments, livestreams, and exporting results to JSON or CSV.
Use cases
- scrape posts from a subreddit
- archive reddit comments to csv
- download a redditor's submission history
- scrape comments from a reddit submission
- monitor a subreddit livestream of new posts
- generate a wordcloud from a reddit thread
- collect reddit data for osint analysis
When to choose
- you need a ready-made CLI for bulk Reddit data collection and archival
- you want JSON/CSV exports of subreddit, redditor, or comment data without writing your own PRAW scripts
- you need livestream monitoring or wordcloud generation from Reddit content
When to avoid
- you need a hosted service or GUI rather than a command-line tool
- you want real-time streaming at scale or want to avoid Reddit API rate limits
- your target platform is not Reddit
