NP Mod Tools

This browser extension adds some additional utilities for /r/NeutralPolitics mods

Features

Submission tools

Approve button

The approve button will approve the post, remove any flair and update the Slack thread. Optionally it will post the reminder sticky comment (on by default).

RFE button

The RFE button will simply add the RFE flair to the post and update the Slack thread.

TODO: maybe present the rules here as well, to specify what the RFE is for?

Reject button

The reject button will present the mod with a list of submission rules for the sub. Once the appropriate rules are selected, the post will be flaired and Slack updated.

Slack button

Shows the responses in the Slack thread for the submission and allows you to quickly send a new response.

Permissions

The first time the extension runs, it'll ask you to give it a number of permissions on your reddit account. Here's what each permission is needed for:

  • Submit links and comments from my account - for posting the stickied reminder comment after a post is approved
  • Access my inbox and send private messages to other users - for reading and responding to the old modmail
  • Access and manage modmail via mod.reddit.com - for reading and responding to the new modmail
  • Manage and assign flair in subreddits I moderate - for flairing the post on approval/rejection/RFE
  • Approve, remove, mark nsfw, and distinguish content in subreddits I moderate - for distinguishing and stickying the reminder comment after approval
  • Read wiki pages through my account - for accessing comment templates from the wiki
  • Maintain this access indefinitely (or until manually revoked) - so the extension doesn't have to ask you for permission every time it wants to do something

Assumptions

The extension makes a number of assumptions which makes it pretty much useful only on /r/NeutralPolitics.

  • the NeutralverseBot needs to be working in order to pick up the Slack thread link from the submission page
  • the rules on /about/rules need to be present
  • the sticky approval comment needs to be available at /wiki/submission_sticky

Building

First install dependencies via yarn install (or npm install)

Production

./build-extension will produce a .zip file for each browser.

Development

NODE_ENV=development webpack --watch

In Chrome go to chrome://extensions, click "Load unpacked extension..." and select the extension directory in this repo.
