Date range?

[phloatingman]

Would it be possible to get subreddit stats from a date range.

For example, just get just the stats for the month of January 2017?

Technically yes. The subreddit.submissions method can be used to specify a date range. However, this tool currently doesn't have that support. I have been thinking about adding it though. Would you care to give it a go?

I'm still a novice programmer, but I'll be sure to submit a pull request if I figure it out!

Awesome. This is a great way to move beyond that novice status. Please reach out on https://gitter.im/praw-dev/praw if you want any assistance.

Got it. Thanks! Great tool by the way...

Has this request been implemented yet?

The date range feature unfortunately no longer works directly through Reddit so that avenue isn't possible. It would, however, be possible using a combination of pushshift's API and Reddit's info API. I'm definitely interested in merging such a PR, but I won't be working toward it myself.
