## Parameters

| name | type | required | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| keyword | not declared | yes | not declared | search 的 Reddit 帖子检索词，不搜索评论全文；默认按相关性排序，时间范围固定为最近一个月。只返回对得上关键词的帖子：标题或社区名里有关键词的词、全帖凑齐这些词，或者这些词在正文里挨着出现（三个词起至少要命中四分之三）；只沾一个词的帖子不返回，所以条数可能少于 limit，一条都没有时按空结果退款。 |
| sort | enum: controversial / newest / popular / relevance / rising / top | no | not declared | Reddit 帖子搜索排序：relevance 相关性、newest 最新、popular 热度、rising 上升、top 高分、controversial 争议；时间范围固定为最近一个月，排序不改变这一范围。 |
| limit | integer (1–25) | no | 10 | 这次调用最多返回的条数，整数，1–25；不传按默认值，实际返回可能少于这个数。超过上限照收，按上限返回。 |
