Import Data from .csv file from the Reddit Data Request #297

Open Z0pyrus opened 1 year ago

Using a .csv file of your upvoted/posted/saved posts to Import data from Reddit could be a much faster way importing data. It's also reducing the API calls to reddit. There is also a file which contains all subreddits a user is subscribed to.

When you request your data from reddit you will receive several .csv files. For Example the post_votes.csv file contains every upvoted/downvoted post with title and url.

So, importing these files can speed up the process of fetching the urls.

(also a short question: is this project still maintained?)

It is still maintained. There has been a pause on new features while I have been busy with another large project I am trying to bring to market. But I do try to keep the functionality up to date and bug-free.

I will look into the .csv files when I have time again. This sounds interesting.
