getUser and getUserByName do not seem to work at all #215

I was able to get things to work after creating a user via createUser(). But now I can not jump back into things using the user that I created. Do I have to do createUser() every time the app starts?

const { discovery, v3 } = require('node-hue-api');
const api = v3.api;
const results = await discovery.nupnpSearch();
const host = results[0].ipaddress;
const app = "myapp";
const device = "mydevice";
const local = await api.createLocal(host).connect();
await local.users.getUser('a previously created user name created via createUser()')
Uncaught TypeError: No value provided and 'username' is not optional

Ah, I see. You have to connect with the username you got from createUser().

const secure = await api.createLocal(host).connect('the username');
const bridgeConfig = await secure.configuration.getConfiguration();
