Add Reddit Social Media Integration
Description
Implement Reddit as a social media scheduling provider, allowing users to schedule and publish posts directly to Reddit subreddits.
Requirements
- Create a Reddit provider class implementing the
ProviderInterfaceinpackages/backend/scheduler/providers/reddit.provider.ts - The implementation should support:
- Authentication with Reddit API (OAuth2)
- Posting text content to subreddits
- Uploading and attaching media (images) to posts
- Supporting different post types (text, link, image)
- Selecting target subreddits for posting
Implementation Details
- Create a new
Redditclass that implements theProviderInterface - Add OAuth2 authentication flow for Reddit
- Implement token refresh mechanism (Reddit tokens expire)
- Add to
SchedulerListinpackages/backend/scheduler/scheduler.list.ts - Add appropriate UI elements for Reddit connection
- Update the social media selection UI to include Reddit option
- Implement subreddit selection mechanism in the UI
- Handle different post types (text vs. link vs. media posts)
API Documentation
Technical Considerations
- Reddit's API rate limits need to be respected
- Different post types require different API endpoints
- Will need to handle subreddit selection as part of the posting process
- Reddit requires a registered application for OAuth2
- May need to implement special handling for link posts vs. text posts
Testing
- Test authentication flow
- Test posting with and without media attachments
- Test token refresh mechanism
- Test different post types (text, link, image)
- Test subreddit selection functionality
Design
- Add Reddit logo to the social media selection UI
- Use the standard Reddit branding colors
- Consider UI for selecting target subreddits
