-# Substack — Data Extraction
-
-Field-tested against multiple Substack publications on 2026-04-27.
-No authentication required for any approach documented here.
-All endpoints work via `http_get` without a browser.
-
----
-
-## TL;DR
-
-Substack exposes a clean public REST API at `{publication}.substack.com/api/v1/`.
-Every publication hosted on Substack (custom domain or `{name}.substack.com`)
-responds to the same API paths. No API key, no login, no browser required.
-
-**What you can do:**
-- List all posts from any publication (`/api/v1/posts`)
-- Fetch full post content by slug (`/api/v1/posts/{slug}`)
-- Fetch post comments (`/api/v1/post/{post_id}/comments`)
-- Read the RSS feed (`/feed`) for title/date/link/description metadata
-
-**Limitations:**
-- Paid-only post bodies return a truncated HTML preview for `body_html` (not the full article)
-- No cross-publication search API accessible without a logged-in session
-- Comment endpoint uses `post_id` (integer), not slug

-
-## Approach 3: Post Comments
-
-`GET https://{subdomain}.substack.com/api/v1/post/{post_id}/comments?limit=N`
-
-Note: uses **integer `post_id`**, not slug. Get `post_id` from the post list

-
-```python

-    Returns list of comment dicts.
-    """
-    url = f"{publication_url.rstrip('/')}/api/v1/post/{post_id}/comments?limit={limit}"
-    data = json.loads(http_get(url))

-    ]

-comments = substack_get_comments("https://www.slowboring.com", 194950421, limit=10)
-# [
-#   {

-#     "children_count": 3,
-#   },
-#   ...
-# ]
-```
-
----
-
-## Approach 4: RSS Feed (Lightweight Metadata)
-
-`GET https://{subdomain}.substack.com/feed`
-
-Returns an RSS 2.0 feed. Useful when you only need title/date/link/description
-without hitting the JSON API. Works as a quick check without parsing JSON.
-
-```python
-from helpers import http_get
-import re
-
-def substack_rss(publication_url, max_items=20):
-    """Fetch recent post metadata via RSS feed.
-
-    Lighter than the JSON API — only returns title, link, pubDate,
-    and description (short excerpt). Does not include body_html or wordcount.
-    """
-    rss = http_get(f"{publication_url.rstrip('/')}/feed")
-    items = re.findall(
-        r'<item>(.*?)</item>',
-        rss,
-        re.DOTALL
-    )[:max_items]
-
-    results = []
-    for item in items:
-        title = re.search(r'<title><!\[CDATA\[(.*?)\]\]></title>', item)
-        link  = re.search(r'<link>(https?://[^<]+)</link>', item)
-        date  = re.search(r'<pubDate>(.*?)</pubDate>', item)
-        desc  = re.search(r'<description><!\[CDATA\[(.*?)\]\]></description>', item, re.DOTALL)
-        results.append({
-            "title":       title.group(1) if title else None,
-            "link":        link.group(1) if link else None,
-            "pub_date":    date.group(1) if date else None,
-            "description": desc.group(1).strip() if desc else None,
-        })
-    return results
-
-feed = substack_rss("https://www.slowboring.com", max_items=5)
-# [
-#   {
-#     "title":    "Sunday Mailbag + Thread",
-#     "link":     "https://www.slowboring.com/p/sunday-mailbag-thread-48b",
-#     "pub_date": "Sun, 26 Apr 2026 17:02:04 GMT",
-#     "description": "Ask your questions below.",
-#   },
-#   ...
-# ]
-```
-
----
-
-## Publication URL Formats
-
-Substack publications use one of two URL formats:
-
-```python
-# Format 1: native subdomain (older or simpler publications)
-"https://simonwillison.substack.com"
-
-# Format 2: custom domain (larger publications, purchased domain)
-"https://www.slowboring.com"         # Matthew Yglesias — Slow Boring
-"https://unchartedterritories.tomaspueyo.com"   # Tomas Pueyo
-
-# Both formats use identical API paths:
-# {base_url}/api/v1/posts
-# {base_url}/api/v1/posts/{slug}
-# {base_url}/api/v1/post/{post_id}/comments
-# {base_url}/feed
-```
-
-If you only know a publication's Substack handle (e.g., `matthewyglesias`),
-the canonical subdomain URL is `https://matthewyglesias.substack.com`. Custom
-domain URLs are listed on the publication's about page or in the RSS feed's
-`<link>` element.

-## Gotchas
-
-- **Paywalled post `body_html` is a truncated preview, not `null`** — the API
-  returns a short HTML excerpt (typically a few hundred to a few KB). It is
-  never `null`. The reliable way to detect full content availability is
-  `audience == "everyone"`. For paywalled posts, compare `len(body_html)` to
-  `wordcount * ~7` (average bytes per word) — a large gap means truncation.
-  `truncated_body_text` (plaintext) is always present regardless of audience.
-- **Comments endpoint uses integer `post_id`, not slug** — `/api/v1/post/{id}/comments`
-  is correct. `/api/v1/posts/{slug}/comments` returns 404.
-- **`reactions` field is a dict with emoji keys**, e.g. `{"❤": 221}` — not a
-  plain integer. Sum the values for total reaction count:
-  `total = sum(post["reactions"].values())`.
-- **`limit` on post list is not strictly capped** — values up to at least 100
-  work; beyond that behavior is untested.
-- **Custom domains and `{name}.substack.com` are interchangeable** — use
-  whichever you have. The `x-sub` response header always reflects the internal
-  publication handle.
-- **`audience` values**: only `"everyone"` and `"only_paid"` observed. A third
-  value `"founding"` exists in Substack's data model but is rare.
-- **No unauthenticated cross-publication search** — `substack.com/api/v1/search`
-  returns HTML (a React page), not JSON. To find publications, use external
-  search engines (`site:substack.com {query}`) or the RSS discovery approach.
-- **Podcast posts** have `type == "podcast"` and `podcast_url` set; their
-  `body_html` may be a show-notes HTML block. Check `type` to distinguish
-  newsletter posts from podcast episodes.

+# post["body_text"]        -> truncated plain text (stripped from truncated HTML)
+# post["truncated_preview"] -> short plaintext excerpt (separate, always present)
+# Use audience == "everyone" as the reliable signal for full content availability.

+
+## Approach 3: Post Comments
+
+`GET https://{subdomain}.substack.com/api/v1/post/{post_id}/comments?limit=N`
+
+Note: uses **integer `post_id`**, not slug. Get `post_id` from the post list
+or post detail responses.
+
+```python
+from helpers import http_get
+import json
+
+def substack_get_comments(publication_url, post_id, limit=50):
+    """Fetch top-level comments for a Substack post.
+
+    Args:
+        publication_url: Base URL of the publication
+        post_id: Integer post ID (from post list or post detail)
+        limit: Max comments to return
+
+    Returns list of comment dicts.
+    """
+    url = f"{publication_url.rstrip('/')}/api/v1/post/{post_id}/comments?limit={limit}"
+    data = json.loads(http_get(url))
+    comments = data.get("comments", [])
+    return [
+        {
+            "comment_id":     c.get("id"),
+            "author":         c.get("name"),
+            "author_handle":  c.get("handle"),
+            "body":           c.get("body"),
+            "date":           c.get("date"),
+            "reaction_count": c.get("reaction_count"),  # e.g. {"❤": 99}
+            "children_count": c.get("children_count"),  # reply count
+            "restacks":       c.get("restacks"),
+        }
+        for c in comments
+        if not c.get("deleted")
+    ]
+
+comments = substack_get_comments("https://www.slowboring.com", 194950421, limit=10)
+# [
+#   {
+#     "comment_id":     248392394,
+#     "author":         "John from FL",
+#     "body":           "Sam asks: \"don't they kind of have a point...\"",
+#     "date":           "2026-04-24T10:20:21.997Z",
+#     "reaction_count": {"❤": 99},
+#     "children_count": 3,
+#   },
+#   ...
+# ]
+```
+
+---
+
+## Approach 4: RSS Feed (Lightweight Metadata)
+
+`GET https://{subdomain}.substack.com/feed`
+
+Returns an RSS 2.0 feed. Useful when you only need title/date/link/description
+without hitting the JSON API. Works as a quick check without parsing JSON.
+
+```python
+from helpers import http_get
+import re
+
+def substack_rss(publication_url, max_items=20):
+    """Fetch recent post metadata via RSS feed.
+
+    Lighter than the JSON API — only returns title, link, pubDate,
+    and description (short excerpt). Does not include body_html or wordcount.
+    """
+    rss = http_get(f"{publication_url.rstrip('/')}/feed")
+    items = re.findall(
+        r'<item>(.*?)</item>',
+        rss,
+        re.DOTALL
+    )[:max_items]
+
+    results = []
+    for item in items:
+        title = re.search(r'<title><!\[CDATA\[(.*?)\]\]></title>', item)
+        link  = re.search(r'<link>(https?://[^<]+)</link>', item)
+        date  = re.search(r'<pubDate>(.*?)</pubDate>', item)
+        desc  = re.search(r'<description><!\[CDATA\[(.*?)\]\]></description>', item, re.DOTALL)
+        results.append({
+            "title":       title.group(1) if title else None,
+            "link":        link.group(1) if link else None,
+            "pub_date":    date.group(1) if date else None,
+            "description": desc.group(1).strip() if desc else None,
+        })
+    return results
+
+feed = substack_rss("https://www.slowboring.com", max_items=5)
+# [
+#   {
+#     "title":    "Sunday Mailbag + Thread",
+#     "link":     "https://www.slowboring.com/p/sunday-mailbag-thread-48b",
+#     "pub_date": "Sun, 26 Apr 2026 17:02:04 GMT",
+#     "description": "Ask your questions below.",
+#   },
+#   ...
+# ]
+```
+

+
+## Publication URL Formats
+
+Substack publications use one of two URL formats:
+
+```python
+# Format 1: native subdomain (older or simpler publications)
+"https://simonwillison.substack.com"
+
+# Format 2: custom domain (larger publications, purchased domain)
+"https://www.slowboring.com"         # Matthew Yglesias — Slow Boring
+"https://unchartedterritories.tomaspueyo.com"   # Tomas Pueyo
+
+# Both formats use identical API paths:
+# {base_url}/api/v1/posts
+# {base_url}/api/v1/posts/{slug}
+# {base_url}/api/v1/post/{post_id}/comments
+# {base_url}/feed
+```
+
+If you only know a publication's Substack handle (e.g., `matthewyglesias`),
+the canonical subdomain URL is `https://matthewyglesias.substack.com`. Custom
+domain URLs are listed on the publication's about page or in the RSS feed's
+`<link>` element.

+## Gotchas
+
+- **Paywalled post `body_html` is a truncated preview, not `null`** — the API
+  returns a short HTML excerpt (typically a few hundred to a few KB). It is
+  never `null`. The reliable way to detect full content availability is
+  `audience == "everyone"`. For paywalled posts, compare `len(body_html)` to
+  `wordcount * ~7` (average bytes per word) — a large gap means truncation.
+  `truncated_body_text` (plaintext) is always present regardless of audience.
+- **Comments endpoint uses integer `post_id`, not slug** — `/api/v1/post/{id}/comments`
+  is correct. `/api/v1/posts/{slug}/comments` returns 404.
+- **`reactions` field is a dict with emoji keys**, e.g. `{"❤": 221}` — not a
+  plain integer. Sum the values for total reaction count:
+  `total = sum(post["reactions"].values())`.
+- **`limit` on post list is not strictly capped** — values up to at least 100
+  work; beyond that behavior is untested.
+- **Custom domains and `{name}.substack.com` are interchangeable** — use
+  whichever you have. The `x-sub` response header always reflects the internal
+  publication handle.
+- **`audience` values**: only `"everyone"` and `"only_paid"` observed. A third
+  value `"founding"` exists in Substack's data model but is rare.
+- **No unauthenticated cross-publication search** — `substack.com/api/v1/search`
+  returns HTML (a React page), not JSON. To find publications, use external
+  search engines (`site:substack.com {query}`) or the RSS discovery approach.
+- **Podcast posts** have `type == "podcast"` and `podcast_url` set; their
+  `body_html` may be a show-notes HTML block. Check `type` to distinguish
+  newsletter posts from podcast episodes.
