For issue #818, @proful wanted replies by a user on a thread to which the original author of the thread has replied, what about the json structure for this scenario.
For this I think it should be different flow, json and templates. Just a thought.
@Mira-Alf Correct me if I'm wrong, but the structure that you have shared has many similarities with the twitter response structure. Do we need to have all of the fields and the structure as twitter gives us?

Hey @johnjacobkenny the structure that I have displayed here has all the elements that the pdf template needs for complex tweets rendering. So @PuruVJ has basically picked off the elements that we will need from the twitter API response - sometimes, he has picked objects without destructuring, so it looks more complex than it needs to be.
But now I hope you understand my hesitation in cleaning this up because there are too many elements involved. So it will be good to have a discussion to get a clean structure which we can also replicate for other structures.
@Mira-Alf I feel that it would be good if we could come up with a structure that is not tied to twitter API, then we would be able to know better which parts go where.
@PuruVJ, @johnjacobkenny and I had a call about this issue. And @PuruVJ suggested a structure like this:
{
"data":[
{
"id":"id",
"date":"date",
"text":"berirv",
"type":"original"
},
{
"id":"bev",
"date":"bbf",
"text":"bebrkv",
"type":"question",
"reply":{
"id":"jbvbkvjbj",
"date":"bekjv",
"text":"bvj",
"userInfo":{
}
}
}
]
}
There is one issue with this structure - it doesnt record what tweet of the thread the reply tweet is a reply to.. I am going to work on this structure with an example tweet and update this issue.
Others please leave comments on what you guys think
@Mira-Alf could you please format the content so it is readable

Does it not look formatted? It looks like that to me.
The new structure is in this updated gist: https://gist.github.com/Mira-Alf/29262cec0252cbd72e1f93358fc28c20
Here are the key attributes:
So now every reply is tied to one tweet of the thread and every reply has user information and answer provided by the author of the thread
Let me know if you guys have any questions
Sounds good to me! 🥳
We have standardized on a structure (For now 🙄). See https://github.com/twindle-co/twindle/blob/main/twindle-cli/src/twitter/types/types.d.ts#L155
A little snippet here:
export interface CustomTweetData {
id: string;
created_at: string;
tweet: string;
customMedia?: CustomMedia;
linkWithImage?: Partial<LinkWithImage>;
embeddedTweet?: ConversationResponseData;
embeddedTweetUser?: User;
replies?: Reply[];
}
export interface CustomTweets {
common: {
id: string;
count: number;
created_at?: string;
user?: Partial<User>;
};
data: CustomTweetData[];
}
Important attributes explained
Questions
Will be good to have some clarity before making changes in the code.
Currently we have our code producing pdf for the three different scenarios:
Things to do:
Will need an elaborate discussion on this.
