Is it possible to detect whether a user's submission on reddit is either a self-post or a link to an external URL? I want to exclude all self-posts but can seem to find anything in PRAW's documentation.
All of the attributes listed in the json data of the following URL are available as attributes:
http://www.reddit.com/r/pics/.json?limit=1
The attribute you might be interested in specifically is is_self
. In PRAW, you need only test submission.is_self
.
