await add_button_widget(*, buttons: List[Dict[str, Dict[str, str] | str | int | Dict[str, str | int]]], description: str, short_name: str, styles: Dict[str, str], **other_settings) → asyncpraw.models.ButtonWidget

Add and return a ButtonWidget.

Parameters:

buttons –

A list of dictionaries describing buttons, as specified in Reddit docs. As of this writing, the format is:

Each button is either a text button or an image button. A text button looks like this:

{
    "kind": "text",
    "text": a string no longer than 30 characters,
    "url": a valid URL,
    "color": a 6-digit rgb hex color, e.g., `#AABBCC`,
    "textColor": a 6-digit rgb hex color, e.g., `#AABBCC`,
    "fillColor": a 6-digit rgb hex color, e.g., `#AABBCC`,
    "hoverState": {...}
}

An image button looks like this:

{
    "kind": "image",
    "text": a string no longer than 30 characters,
    "linkUrl": a valid URL,
    "url": a valid URL of a Reddit-hosted image,
    "height": an integer,
    "width": an integer,
    "hoverState": {...}
}

Both types of buttons have the field hoverState. The field does not have to be included (it is optional). If it is included, it can be one of two types: "text" or "image". A text hoverState looks like this:

{
    "kind": "text",
    "text": a string no longer than 30 characters,
    "color": a 6-digit rgb hex color, e.g., `#AABBCC`,
    "textColor": a 6-digit rgb hex color, e.g., `#AABBCC`,
    "fillColor": a 6-digit rgb hex color, e.g., `#AABBCC`
}

An image hoverState looks like this:

{
    "kind": "image",
    "url": a valid URL of a Reddit-hosted image,
    "height": an integer,
    "width": an integer
}

Note

The method upload_image() can be used to upload images to Reddit for a url field that holds a Reddit-hosted image.

Note

An image hoverState may be paired with a text widget, and a text hoverState may be paired with an image widget.
