How to build a bot to download the latest /r/gifs posts on Reddit

All Pipedream workflows have just been upgraded from 512 megabytes of storage to a full 2 gigabytes of storage. For free! So in this week's episode we're going to show a quick example of how to store the latest video previews of posts to /r/gifs in a workflow.

Not only can you download gifs, but you can download videos, datasets, well pretty much anything.

Thanks to the power of multiple language run times, you can combine pandas/numpy in Python, and export those results to Node.js for easy POST'ing to another API.

This is just a short example of what you can do with a single Pipedream workflow, and now that you have 2 full gigabytes to use, we've just widened the possibilities even further.

Here's the docs on how to download a file from a URL to your /tmp directory on your workflow:
