.. _reddit_initialization:

Keyword Arguments to :class:`.Reddit`
=====================================

Most of PRAW's documentation will demonstrate configuring PRAW through the use of
keyword arguments when initializing instances of :class:`.Reddit`. All of the
:ref:`configuration_options` can be specified using a keyword argument of the same name.

For example, if we wanted to explicitly pass the information for ``bot3`` defined in
:ref:`the praw.ini custom site example <custom_site_example>` without using the ``bot3``
site, we would initialize :class:`.Reddit` as:

.. code-block:: python

    reddit = praw.Reddit(
        client_id="SI8pN3DSbt0zor",
        client_secret="xaxkj7HNh8kwg8e5t4m6KvSrbTI",
        password="1guiwevlfo00esyy",
        user_agent="testscript by u/fakebot3",
        username="fakebot3",
    )
