Last Updated : 26 Jun, 2020

In Reddit, we can post a comment to any submission, we can also comment on a comment to create a thread of comments. Any user can either upvote or downvote a comment, the net value is the score of the comment. Here we will see how to fetch the score of a comment using PRAW. We will be using the score attribute of the Comment class to fetch the score of a comment. Example 1 : Consider the following comment :

The ID of the comment is : fvib7aw

Python3 1==

# importing the module
import praw

# initialize with appropriate values
client_id = ""
client_secret = ""
username = ""
password = ""
user_agent = ""

# creating an authorized reddit instance
reddit = praw.Reddit(client_id = client_id, 
                     client_secret = client_secret, 
                     username = username, 
                     password = password,
                     user_agent = user_agent) 

# the ID of the comment
comment_id = "fvib7aw"

# instantiating the Comment class
comment = reddit.comment(comment_id)

# fetching the score attribute
score = comment.score
  
print("The score of the comment is : " + str(score))

Output :

The score of the comment is : 25

Example 2 : Consider the following comment:

The ID of the comment is : fv9qvgo

# importing the module
import praw

# initialize with appropriate values
client_id = ""
client_secret = ""
username = ""

                     client_secret = client_secret, 
                     username = username, 
                     password = password,
                     user_agent = user_agent)
