user.logOn, not client.logOn

var CMClient = require('steam-client').CMClient; var SteamUser = require('steam-user'); var client = new CMClient(); client.bind('192.168.0.2'); var user = new SteamUser(client);

What version of steam-user do you have? Edit: Okay, I found the problem. It's because you don't have a HOME environment variable. I'll push out a fix shortly.

This post is outdated. Please see the updated version. Every website out there (that doesn't use HTTP authentication) uses cookies to identify user sessions. Cookies usually contain session IDs, which are looked up on the server in order to determine who the session belongs to. Steam is no different. All Steam websites (the store, community, the help site) use the same cookies to identify user sessions. There are four cookies which are required to identify a Steam session: sessionid steamLogin steamLoginSecure* steamMachineAuth* * = this cookie should only be sent over HTTPS Despite its name, the sessionid cookie is merely a CSRF token. Its value can be anything, as long as it matches the sessionid POST parameter in your POST requests. Steam will randomly assign you one the first time you hit one of the websites without already having one, even if you aren't logged in. They are not tied to accounts or to sessions. steamLogin and steamLoginSecure are the actual session cookies. Their format is: (your 64-bit SteamID + two pipe characters, percent encoded as %7C + a 40-character uppercase hexadecimal token). The hexadecimal token will differ between the two cookies, but the SteamID will be the same. steamLoginSecure should be sent with all HTTPS requests, and only for HTTPS requests. These cookies are short-lived and once invalidated (the exact circumstances that cause them to be invalidated are unclear), you will be logged out. steamMachineAuth is your Steam Guard identification cookie. You should replace with your actual 64-bit SteamID, so for example the name of my cookie would be steamMachineAuth76561198006409530. This cookie's value is simply a 40-character uppercase hexadecimal token. The cookie identifies a "machine" for Steam Guard, so that you don't have to provide an email code every time. This cookie is still present if you're using the mobile authenticator, even though you have to provide a code for every login. This cookie's issue date is also used as the "first sign in" date for purposes of determining trade restrictions. This cookie effectively lasts forever, so you should save it and reuse it between sessions. This cookie is required for trade offers to work. Note: Since Steam switched to HTTPS-only, steamLogin appears to no longer be necessary and is therefore no longer issued to web logins. It does seem to still be issued to Steam client-based logins. How to Get Cookies You can get Steam login cookies in one of three ways. You can log in to any Steam site in a browser, which will issue you cookies for that domain (and also do some JavaScript to set those cookies for other Steam domains). node-steamcommunity can do this for you. You can use the undocumented IMobileAuthService/GetWGToken WebAPI method with an oAuth token. node-steamcommunity can do this for you. You can use the ISteamUserAuth/AuthenticateUser WebAPI method with a nonce (loginkey) received from the CM. Sessions negotiated this way will have no steamMachineAuth cookie, and that cookie is unneeded for these sessions (trade offers will still work). Sessions negotiated this way will be invalidated as soon as the client session which received the CM nonce disconnects. node-steam-user can do this for you. Once you have cookies, you can use them with any of a number of modules, e.g. node-steam-trade, node-steamcommunity, node-steamstore, etc. Cookie Expiration Cookies expire and become invalid at seemingly-random times. There seems to be no real rhyme or reason as to when it happens, but it generally does happen whenever an account is logged in somewhere else, and on some unspecific time interval. If you log in to Steam using node-steam-user, you will be issued cookies, but they are only linked to the CM session in that they will expire if the session disconnects. They also follow normal expiration rules, meaning that even if your Steam client session is still connected, your cookies might have expired and thus your web requests will indicate that you aren't logged in. If this happens, you'll need to use webLogOn() to get new cookies. Cookie Usage I'll briefly explain how cookies and sessions work in my libraries. A quick overview on statefulness: HTTP is stateless. Each request is distinct from every other request, and thus there is no way to link two requests together (except by using cookies). For this reason, to keep track of which user is logged in, every site on the planet uses cookies. Typically, cookies contain an opaque session ID which the server looks up to see which account you're using. Steam is no exception. TCP is stateful. Each message sent over a TCP connection belongs to that connection and thus it's easy to link two messages together. node-steam-user connects to the CM using TCP (or optionally UDP, but it acts like TCP anyway). This is a stateful connection, and there is no need to use cookies to identify it. Therefore, node-steam-user has no need for cookies. While it is capable of producing cookies, it does not save them and doesn't use them in any way except to make them available to the end-user for use elsewhere. node-steamcommunity communicates with Steam over HTTP, which is stateless. Thus, cookies are required in order to authenticate your requests to your account. node-steamcommunity can either accept cookies using the setCookies method (which can accept cookies obtained by any means, including node-steam-user), or it can produce cookies using the login method. Either method will save the cookies internally in the SteamCommunity object and those cookies will be used to authenticate every HTTP request. node-steamstore is identical to node-steamcommunity, although it cannot create cookies (i.e. it can only accept them using setCookies). node-steam-tradeoffer-manager is identical to node-steamstore, except it uses node-steamcommunity under the hood for its HTTP communication. Thus, if you instantiate TradeOfferManager and pass a community instance to the constructor, calling setCookies on the TradeOfferManager will also call setCookies on the SteamCommunity, and therefore you need not call setCookies on SteamCommunity (although it doesn't hurt anything, either). In list form, where a producer can create cookies and a consumer can use cookies: steam-user: producer steamcommunity: producer, consumer steamstore: consumer steam-tradeoffer-manager: consumer steam: producer steam-trade: consumer

Can you resize your terminal window so that your stack trace doesn't get cut off?

You'd create your own CMClient, bind it to the IP you want, and pass it to the constructor of SteamUser.

What does the item array look like?

See cancelTime here.

You have to provide a callback.

There are examples in the repository. If you don't know what events are, I suggest that you learn more about Node before trying to undertake this.

The sentOfferChanged event will be emitted when an offer you sent is accepted or declined.

No, images for two items with identical classid/instanceid pairs (which is not uncommon) will be identical. Plus I believe it can change from time to time unpredictably.

Unfortunately there isn't. You'll need to just avoid moving two items which might get mixed up inside of one trade.

You're trying to invite people to TeamSpeak through Steam?

The problem with this is that I'm about 99% sure that you need to actually be "in" a server in order to invite someone to a game, unless it's a Steam lobby. And "joining" a server is a non-trivial task.

Don't worry about poll failures unless you aren't getting any successful polls at all. Failures will happen.

I'm not very familiar with Dota, but as far as I know TF2 and possibly Dota are the only Valve games where IEconService gives enough useful information to build an item's display information. For everything else, you need to use inventory JSON. Attributes are only a concept in Valve-land; the Steam econ server has no concept of "attributes". Consequently, attribute data doesn't translate to the inventory JSON. Attributes are just that: attributes attached to an item. For example in TF2 an attribute might change how much damage the weapon does. In CS:GO, wear is an attribute. IEconService has no classids because again, it has no concept of classids. They're entirely assigned by and used by the Steam econ server, and consequently they're only available in the econ endpoints (like inventory JSON and GetAssetClassInfo).

I purposefully didn't mention the WebAPIs because they aren't really "Steam items". They're "Valve items", and third-party games don't need to follow any of the same standards. However, for Valve games, the "id" in the WebAPI is the item's asset ID, and "original_id" is the item's asset ID when it was originally created. If it's identical to the item's "id", that means that the item was never traded or modified. Quality (generally) determines the color of the item's name, and (sometimes) a prefix to the item's name (for example, StatTrak, ★, etc). Quality has nothing to do with wear. For CS:GO, you can't really get much useful information out of the WebAPI except an item's raw wear value (frequently, incorrectly, and ignorantly referred to as its "float value") and perhaps original ID.

Don't do this. Timezones don't matter.

I can't help in any way with C#.

The trade receipt page contains the new item data. If you're using node-steam-tradeoffer-manager, you only need to use offer.getReceivedItems.

Use offer.getReceivedItems, which will contain the new asset IDs of those items.

Check if itemsToGive.length is 0, and itemsToReceive.length is greater than 0. If both tests pass, then accept the offer. Make sure you check both, as both itemsToGive and itemsToReceive could be empty when the Steam econ server is acting up, even though you might be giving items in that offer.
