Check if a users account (inventory) is private, and declining the friend request if it is?

Hey, so I have this function, as follows:

 

checkFriendsAndMessagesWhileOffline() {

this.client.on('friendsList', () => {

let friendcount = 0;

Object.keys(this.client.myFriends).forEach(steamId => {

if (this.client.myFriends[steamId] === SteamUser.Steam.EFriendRelationship.RequestRecipient) {

logger.info(`Friend request while offline from: ${steamId}`);

this.client.addFriend(steamId, (err, name) => {

if (err) {

return logger.error(`Cannot add friend: ${err}`)

}

logger.info(`Added ${name} as a friend.`);

});

this.client.chatMessage(steamId, `Thanks for adding me! Type '!help' for commands.`);

};

});

});

this.client.on('offlineMessages', (count, friends) => {

logger.info(`${count} messages from ${friends} since your last login.`)

});

};

 

Now, above line 5 I want to do something like

(pseudo-code)

 

if (this.client.myFriends[steamId] == steamid.isPrivate) {

   declineFriendship();

}

 

Is there any way to achieve this? Couldn't find anything in the wiki / docs.

Many thanks and thanks for all the hard work that went into this project.

Try using steamcommunity getSteamUser, and check their privacyState

Maybe also possible using getPersona, but I don't know anything about it

Hey @Vanilla. Solved it with getSteamUser Thanks for the help. Here's my code if anyone wants to reference it in the future:

 

checkFriendsAndMessagesWhileOffline() {

this.client.on('friendsList', () => {

let friendcount = 0;

Object.keys(this.client.myFriends).forEach(steamId => {

if (this.client.myFriends[steamId] === SteamUser.Steam.EFriendRelationship.RequestRecipient) {

logger.info(`Friend request while offline from: ${steamId}`);

this.community.getSteamUser(steamId, (err, user) => {

if (err) {

return logger.error(`Cannot get user: ${err}`)

}

if (user && (user.privacyState == "private" || user.privacyState == "friendsonly")) {

return logger.warn(`User ${user.name} is private. Aborting...`);

}

logger.debug(`Profile is not private. Adding...`)

this.client.addFriend(steamId, (err, name) => {

if (err) {

return logger.error(`Cannot add friend: ${err}`)

}

logger.info(`Added ${name} as a friend.`);

});

this.client.chatMessage(steamId, `Thanks for adding! Type '!help' for commands.`);

});

};

});

});

this.client.on('offlineMessages', (count, friends) => {

logger.info(`${count} messages from ${friends} since your last login.`)

});

};
