Yes, that's returning a promise. You should put your code inside of the callback function and call resolve() once you're done.

async function abc(){ // test function
	
	let Items = ["AK-47 | Elite Build (Minimal Wear)","AK-47 | Redline (Field-Tested)","AK-47 | Frontside Misty (Field-Tested)"];
	
		
		let prices = await Market_Price(Items);
		console.log(prices); // this will print an empty array
	
	
}

This is what happens:

It will not wait for the function to finish.

They're both async, it returns a promise but im not sure about the resolve() posittion

Edit: Figuered it out. Just wrapped the entire function with return promise like you suggested, thx for the help

ConvertToKeys2 is not an async function (nor does it return a Promise), so that's why await isn't awaiting anything.

What about this? 

 return new Promise(resolve => {});

Doesn't that mean it returns a promise?

Sry if you facepalm reading this, I'm still trying to wrap my head around async functions

Hey,

so Im trying to get the market price of an item I receive on a trade. It works, but for some reason  the script won't wait for my async function to finish and returns an empty result

First I have this function which is triggered when I receive an offer for their items

async function ProccessTradeOffer(offer){

let TheirItems = offer.itemsToReceive;
const Deposited_Items = await ConvertToKeys2(TheirItems);

console.log(Deposited_Items); // this will print null and won't wait for the async to finish
}

This is the other function im calling

async function ConvertToKeys2(Items){

let ValueInKeys = []; // array of objects containing info about the items
                    
                    return new Promise(resolve => {
                        setTimeout(() => {
                               if(Market_Value > -1){
                                   obj = {
                                      name: item_name,
                                      value: Market_Value  
                                   }
                                    ValueInKeys.push(obj);
                                }
                         }, 2000);
                    });   

       }

    }
       
     return ValueInKeys; 
}

The problem is that in the main async function it'll not wait for my ConvertToKeys2 function to calculate & add it to array and simply print an empty array.

It's an async function so I don't understand why thisis happening..

Thx for your help   

Hey,

so I'm trying to get user's personaName in a sent trade offer.

I'm pretty sure I'm doing this right, but I can't figure out what's causing the error..

manager.on("sentOfferChanged", (OFFER, OLDSTATE) => {
	
	OFFER.getUserDetails((err, me, them) => {
               theirname = them.personaName;
		console.log(theirname);	

});
});

Nickname as in the private name you gave the user, or nickname as in the user's profile (persona) name?

Private name i gave the user

Hi,

I'm trying to get a user's nickname.

I know I'm supposed to use getUserDetails and then getPersonas, but what's the nickname property called?

Edit: My polllinterval is set to 30 and the problem continues. So I don't think it's Steam that's terminating my connection

Hi,

My bot has been working just fine up until yesterday - When it started going offline a few minutes after launch.

I checked the console, and it's not an error on my part, but it says on the console "Killed"

My guess is, the connection is either Killed by Valve (maybe because I send too many requests to their API?) or someone is ddosing/attacking my bot

Here's a screenshot 

https://gyazo.com/9a73153c59359b6befddd9ce9d3a63e8

It takes more than a minute for it to shut down.

Important Notes:

I'm hosting my bot on DigitalOcean, and using an SSH connection using putty.

Anybody?

Hi, 

I'd like to get the lowest price of a Background/Emoteicon on the market.

I already figured out how to do that, but for some reason this will ONLY work for anything but Steam items..

Code  https://pastebin.com/ujkfYLLa

Also, what's the optimal frequency to use this function? Just so I don't spam it too hard. 

You have to use getGemValue first because turnItemIntoGems needs the expected value.

That's what I figured.

 However, I'm not sure I'm doing this right.

Here's my attempt:

// I'm going through my steam inv with a for loop

let MyItem = MySteamInventory[i];

community.getGemValue(MyItem.appid,MyItem.assetid, (res) => {
console.log("This Item is worth: "+res.gemValue);
});

Am I supposed to use community.getGemValue since getGemValue belongs to node-SteamCommunity? 

The Error: This Item is worth: undefined

https://github.com/DoctorMcKay/node-steamcommunity/wiki/SteamCommunity#turnitemintogemsappid-assetid-expectedgemsvalue-callback

Thanks! I wasn't aware these existed!

However, I'm pretty new to this and really not sure how to use these methods..

Say I have an array called "Selected_Items" with items I filtered myself

I go through it with a for loop and try to convert each item to gems.

 I'm supposed to get gemValue first so that I can pass that variable to turnItemIntoGems() method right? I'm not sure how to use getGemValue() method.  Could you give me a simple example by any chance?   

Hi,

is it possible to convert background/emotes into gems with a bot?

Basically, I want the bot to scan it's inventory once a trade is completed, find Backgrounds/Emotes worth 20+ Gems and turn them into Gems.

Is it possible to do?
