Problems with async returns - sample code

[Mithgroth]

Helloes, thanks for this library and incredible work you have done. I just started using it, and hammered your sample code to my controller.

// this will map to the ISteamUser endpoint
var steamInterface = new SteamUser("<devKeyHere>");

// this will map to ISteamUser/GetPlayerSummaries method in the Steam Web API
// see PlayerSummaryResultContainer.cs for response documentation
var playerSummaryResponse = await steamInterface.GetPlayerSummaryAsync(<steamIdHere>);
var playerSummaryData = playerSummaryResponse.Data;
var playerSummaryLastModified = playerSummaryResponse.LastModified;

// this will map to ISteamUser/GetFriendsListAsync method in the Steam Web API
// see FriendListResultContainer.cs for response documentation
var friendsListResponse = await steamInterface.GetFriendsListAsync(<steamIdHere>);
var friendsList = friendsListResponse.Data;

I checked my own Steam profile, player summary runs and works great and it's structured with models, awesome so far!

However I get nothing after invoking GetFriendsListAsync, no exceptions too. Tried it with EconItems.GetPlayerItemsAsync() too, I'm just not receiving anything out of these methods. But I did get my player summary.

What would you suggest me to do?

Hi Emek,

Can you please tell me which Steam ID you are testing with so I can try?

Thanks.

Hey :) 76561197999973508 is the SteamId I'm trying. Even if there is a problem (friends list private or another privacy setting) I'm getting no errors at all.

Eagerly waiting for your response, thanks!

Here's what I just tested:

var econItemsService = new EconItems("key", EconItemsAppId.TeamFortress2);
var playerItems = await econItemsService.GetPlayerItemsAsync(76561197999973508);
var steamUser = new SteamUser("key");
var friendsList = await steamUser.GetFriendsListAsync(76561197999973508);

playerItems.Data contains 116 items. friendsList.Data contains 98 friends.

It seems to be working on my end. Can you double check your code or post a full sample?

I was querying about CS:GO and this might be the cause:

http://api.steampowered.com/IEconItems_730/GetPlayerItems/v0001/?key={key}&steamid=76561197999973508&format=json

returns:

That method is long gone. Valve removed it because of its instability. You can still use the GC to get the inventory. See here.

@Mithgroth what about the friends list? Can you confirm that's working for you? I was able to retrieve friends for the Steam ID you provided.

[Mithgroth]

@babelshift Yeah, I got fList working, no problems. Any plans to change EconItems for CS:GO since the method is changed?

[babelshift]

@Mithgroth Unfortunately, if Valve has deprecated the method, there's not much I can do. I'm not aware if they have moved the CS:GO EconItems to a different web endpoint.

The reddit link above indicates that the only way to get that information is via protobuf; something that I can't support in this library. You could try using SteamKit for that.
