CLI - user timeline error

[capps99]

I have been experimenting with the CLI API, and never able to make it with the 'user' module. The only one that is working well is the 'user details' one.

rettiwt -l -k [API_KEY] user details MetroCDMX I tested all the 'tweet' module, and they work well.

So, for the rest of user [operation] I got the same error: node:internal/process/promises:289 triggerUncaughtException(err, true / fromPromise /);

Example: rettiwt -l -k [API_KEY]= user timeline MetroCDMX
[Rettiwt-API] [FETCH] [2024-02-11T19:52:59.225Z] {"resourceType":"/i/api/graphql/H8OOoI-5ZE4NxgRr8lfyWg/UserTweets","args":{"id":"MetroCDMX"}} node:internal/process/promises:289 triggerUncaughtException(err, true / fromPromise /);

=========================================================================== Update: After more analysis, I found that it's also failing on the JS implementation: rettiwt.user.timeline('MetroCDMX') .then(details => { console.log(details) }) .catch(error => { console.error(error); });

Response: DataValidationError { name: 'VALIDATION_ERROR', message: 'One or more validation errors occured. Check details', data: [ ValidationError { target: [FetchArgs], value: 'MetroCDMX', property: 'id', children: [], constraints: [Object] } ] }

===========================================================================

Environment: Node version - v20.11.0 npm version - 10.2.4

All methods of user module (except user.details) take in a user id (which is a numeric string) as input, not a username. You can see more about this error by inspecting the constraints field of the thrown error.

The error thrown in your case is a ValidationError, which means that the arguments themselves were invalid.

Thanks, yes, it worked!! Thank you so much.

Basically, I google: "Twitter ID for a user" and was able to find it!.

This library it's amazing. Congrats!

Worked with numeric ID.

You can also fetch the user ID by using the user.details function by passing in the username. The returned response will have the user ID which you can then use to fetch timeline.
