🔍 Reddit Network Explorer 🔍

The **Reddit Network Explorer** is a web application that lets you visualize a
subreddit in real-time as well as perform sentiment analysis and different
network analysis algorithms.

> [!NOTE]
> We no longer host the Reddit Network Explorer app on `reddit.memgraph.com`. You can still check out this project to learn how to build an app with Memgraph.

## 📚 Data model

reddit-network-explorer

## 🖥️ Run the app locally

The simplest way of running the app locally is by using [Docker
Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/). Just run the following
commands in the root directory:

```
docker-compose build
docker-compose up backend-app
docker-compose up frontend-app
docker-compose up reddit-stream
```

Make sure to set up a Reddit account and go to https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps in order to create an app so you can
get the `client_id` and `client_secret`.
You will need those to set up the Reddit stream in `reddit-stream/app.py` (line 106-109):

```python
reddit = praw.Reddit(
client_id="***REMOVED***",
client_secret="***REMOVED***",
user_agent="graph-demo data fetcher")
```

The app will need to run a while to populate with comments and users,
so make sure to keep it running for 10-15 minutes to see some data flowing in.
