user.image returning undefined

[MajliTech]

So, the title says it all. Maybe I will give you my code for refrence.

function getPicOf(user) {
  for (let i in lightdm.users) {
    if (lightdm.users[i].username == user){
      return lightdm.users[i].picture
    }
  }
  return "placeholder.png"
}

So, I runned alert(getPicOf("majlitech")) and it gave me undefined. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks. Yes, I have a picture on my account.

You shouldn't use user.picture anymore; this property was deprecated in lightdm-webkit2-greeter and now it's removed from web-greeter and nody-greeter.

Instead, use user.image.

Also, you should check if the image does actually exists. Some users may not have an image, so your code will always return undefined in those cases.

You could have something like this:

function getPicOf(user) {
  for (let i in lightdm.users) {
    if (lightdm.users[i].username == user && lightdm.users[i].image){
      return lightdm.users[i].image
    }
  }
  return "placeholder.png"
}
