LiveUpdate¶

class asyncpraw.models.LiveUpdate(reddit: Reddit, thread_id: Optional[str] = None, update_id: Optional[str] = None, _data: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None)¶

An individual LiveUpdate object.

Typical Attributes

This table describes attributes that typically belong to objects of this class. Since attributes are dynamically provided (see Determine Available Attributes of an Object), there is not a guarantee that these attributes will always be present, nor is this list necessarily complete.

Attribute	Description
`author`	The `Redditor` who made the update.
`body`	Body of the update, as Markdown.
`body_html`	Body of the update, as HTML.
`created_utc`	The time the update was created, as Unix Time.
`stricken`	A `bool` representing whether or not the update was stricken (see `strike()`).

__init__(reddit: Reddit, thread_id: Optional[str] = None, update_id: Optional[str] = None, _data: Optional[Dict[str, Any]] = None)¶

Initialize a lazy LiveUpdate instance.

Either thread_id and update_id, or _data must be provided.

Parameters

reddit – An instance of Reddit.
thread_id – A live thread ID, e.g., "ukaeu1ik4sw5".
update_id – A live update ID, e.g., "7827987a-c998-11e4-a0b9-22000b6a88d2".

Usage:

update = LiveUpdate(reddit, "ukaeu1ik4sw5", "7827987a-c998-11e4-a0b9-22000b6a88d2")
await update.load()
update.thread     # LiveThread(id="ukaeu1ik4sw5")
update.id         # "7827987a-c998-11e4-a0b9-22000b6a88d2"
update.author     # "umbrae"

contrib¶

Provide an instance of LiveUpdateContribution.

Usage:

thread = await reddit.live("ukaeu1ik4sw5")
update = await thread.get_update("7827987a-c998-11e4-a0b9-22000b6a88d2", lazy=True)
update.contrib  # LiveUpdateContribution instance

fullname¶

Return the object’s fullname.

A fullname is an object’s kind mapping like t3 followed by an underscore and the object’s base36 ID, e.g., t1_c5s96e0.

await load()¶

Re-fetches the object.

This is used to explicitly fetch or re-fetch the object from reddit. This method can be used on any RedditBase object.

await reddit_base_object.load()

classmethod parse(data: Dict[str, Any], reddit: Reddit) → Any¶

Return an instance of cls from data.

Parameters

data – The structured data.
reddit – An instance of Reddit.

thread¶: Return LiveThread object the update object belongs to.

Note

This list of attributes is not complete. Async PRAW dynamically provides the attributes that Reddit returns via the API. Because those attributes are subject to change on Reddit’s end, Async PRAW makes no effort to document them, other than to instruct you on how to discover what is available. See Determine Available Attributes of an Object for detailed information.
