Question I need to handle some concurrency ?

[Unsigno]

I know NodeJs works in a single thread , but the modules work with request that use sessions , then i have the doubt .

 

I need to handle only one offer per account at a time ? Or can I make all the calls to .createOffer I need ?

 

I tested calling the method many times and works, but is it "secure" ?

The createOffer method doesn't do anything on the network. It just creates a new object in memory, which you can add items to and set properties on. Nothing of value actually happens until you call offer.send().

 

So that means you can call createOffer as many times as you want. You could call it a million times in a second if you wanted and nothing would break. Of course, sending offers that frequently isn't gonna work.

Thanks for your fast answer . Sorry i missed the detail , and i mean creating + send ( i have a method that create and send i a row ) .

 

Some concurrency handles for send offers ?? Or what limitation are you mention ??

[Dr. McKay]

There's no concurrency concern with sending offers, but if you send offers too frequently (or you send too many offers) then Steam will start limiting you. You're limited to 30 total active outgoing offers, and 5 active outgoing offers to the same recipient. There are also request rate-limits.
