How to "grab" all submissions from a subreddit?

I'm writing a simple python script to get all of a subreddit's submission titles and bodies. 

for submission in sub.new()
    title = submission.title
    text = submission.selftext

The script only loops through 12 submissions before ending (with no error output). sub.hot() also stops at 12 submissions. There are a few hundred submissions in the sub (r/dailyprogrammer)

I'm new to PRAW and don't know if this is the result of a limit on how many submissions I can "get" or if it is related to using .new() and .hot().

Solution

  • Not sure if this will work in most recent version of PRAW but try:

    for submission in sub.get_new(limit=300):
